Chanel Beads

Chanel Beads brings his experimental, dreamlike sound to KOKO this November

Chanel Beads is the experimental project of Shane Lavers, an artist known for creating genre-defying music that blends synthetic sounds, real instruments, and intimate, dreamlike songwriting.

Originally from Minnesota and formed in Seattle in 2016, Chanel Beads gained attention through tracks like “Ef” and “True Altruism,” before growing from underground shows to supporting Lorde on her North American arena tour.

His latest album, Your Day Will Come, explores themes of uncertainty, memory, love, and loss. Created in Lavers’ Brooklyn studio with a raw, instinctive approach to recording, the album captures the emotional tension between doubt and hope that defines Chanel Beads’ sound.
