There is a moment where every artist decides that it is best to create music based on instinct rather than expectation. For PVRIS, a three-piece rock band from Boston, that moment came during their conception. The trio formed in the studio while making songs for a previous project and realized that they needed to collectively eschew any preconceived idea of what music should be. “It occurred to us that we should just make whatever we want and not worry about fitting into the local scene,” Lynn says. “Our vision was whatever we felt like doing. It was about making what we felt like making in the moment.”
That vision has manifested itself into PVRIS’s debut album White Noise, which follows an acoustic EP that came out in April of 2014. The album is its own entity, a collection of dynamic, surging rock songs that combine the musicians’ collective influences and inspirations. The band has continually fostered an interest in electronic music and hoped to organically bring those sounds into their pop-tinged rock numbers. “We knew we wanted to go in a more electronic direction on the album,” Lynn says. “We had that vision but we had no clue how it would actually sound. We let the music find itself.”
PVRIS, who has toured the U.S. several times in the past few years and played Warped Tour in the summer of 2014, have reimagined their live set-up to reflect the album. Ultimately, PVRIS wants to make music that is their own. Without expectation, the musicians have songs that give something important to their audience – whatever that may be.
“I hope people can take anything they desire away from this record,” Lynn says. “It can be anything. We made the music because we loved it and now it can belong to everyone else.”

I’ve been to a lot of concerts, but pvris was definitely one of the best. The atmosphere was incredible and they’re amazing live!!!
This was my first time at Delmar Hall and the venue is smaller than the Pagent but the acoustics in the place makes for a awesome show. PVRIS was absolutely perfect. I was so glad that I finally got to see them
PVRIS is an amazing group! Love their music and wished they played in my area more often
Opening acts were good , PVRIS sure know how to put on a good show !! Loved it
Awesome performance! Kept the crowd jumping and singing!
Great in the studio--poor live performance. They are heavily programmed live. It sounded like a jumbled mess. Overly produced in the studio, and they had a hard time replicating it live. Energy is also important. Outside of the drummer, the rest of the band seemed like they were dead or Chuck E Cheese Robots playing emo/pop punk. Waste of money. Stay home and listen to the albums. Much better experience.
I've been a fan of PVRIS for years now and I finally got to meet them and see them live. Needless to say, they didn't disappoint at all! They put on an amazing show and it was definitely worth the wait. They always keep the crowd engaged throughout their set and make sure everyone is having a good time. Their openers, Cherry Pools and Flint Eastwood, were also great. If you're a rock fan, then you need to see PVRIS at least once!
I thought the show was amazing and they did a really great job. The meet and greet was fun
PVRIS always puts on an amazing show and gets the crowd going by jumping and clapping and singing and almost withcperosnally addressing the city. They're very LGBT friendly and the fans are always accepting and fun to be around.
The venue was pretty and the acoustics were nice. I got in and went straight to the floor and didn't move the whole night but what I did see was nice. And the staff at the door was friendly. No complaints here.
this tour has got to be the greatest. The opening acts were amazing. And seeing PVRIS live again was amazing also
The vocals for all three artists were terrible. Couldn't hear the singing and when they talked it was a muffled blah blah blah. Was in the middle of the venue. Tried using earplugs because sometimes that helps...it didnt help.
PVRIS was amazing it was also funny & cherrypools was also great got addicated & so was flintwood got me so pumped
Hands down this was probably my favorite show ever. Great venue, awesome band, and sweet people. I got to the venue at about 10 am and was fourth in line. Usually when you wait around so long it gets really boring and feels like it has been forever but because of all the wonderful fans (and new friends we all made) 7 hours felt like 30 minuets. I personally bought the vip package and would say it’s so worth the money. The band was so nice and sweet and even signed my drawing I did of them and said really nice things about it. My friend and I got front row for the show and that never disappoints. The opening acts were amazing and so nice when we talked to them after the show. When Pvris came on they just blew me away. Lynn had amazing vocals and Alex and Brian played their instruments beautifully. (Also it was Brian’s birthday which was fun). Overall I had a wonderful experience and really miss all the new friends I made and the bands.
Amazing show, small venue, no parking at all because of construction and very unorganized.
The 61/2 hour drive from Florida was worth it. The venue was great, the staff was friendly and the concert was amazing!!
PVRIS was a great show!! Their openers were so good too.
This is a band that I’ve wanted to see for a while now and finally got the chance to do so. I first discovered PVRIS a few years back when FS Sports would play St. Patrick during the 3rd quarter highlights of Hawks games. I’ve been a fan since! She is much better singer live than on the albums and you can tell they’re a band that is like a family. Typical Atlanta crowd too... Never too high or low and bands are left begging for arms up and some energy. We are an easygoing city and our chill crowds are a reflection of that. The Buckhead Threatre is beautiful, I just wish there were a few spots to sit in the theatre area. I have old sports injuries that makes it hard to stand for long periods of time... More of a “me” problem though. The area around the threatre seemed to be safe. I never felt unsafe. I highly recommend both PVRIS and the Buckhead Theatre!
Pvris put on one hell of a show! The venue was coo, I had standing room only the view was unbelievable.
