HRT is euphoric hardcore you can writhe to. Sparked in 2018, Ana Westcott and Kirby Lees makeup the transgirl duo of ur dreams. Born and based in the gurgling musical bellies of Montreal, seaborne sirens by way of their Maritime & Atlantic roots, HRT’s electronic sound is forever changing shape. Lees’ piercing gaze and voice cut above the noise, while Westcott nods, wielding the pulsing controls and skittering synths. Their latest work, warm wet stroke of luck, bottles the feeling live from the floor — the sticky, sweaty, the loud, the sheer bodies crashing into each other. HRT leaves not one crossed arm in the house, not one person undanced, not one person uptight. Take your medicine.
