San Jose dreampop band Frantic Romantic lived another lifetime as Skyway View. Now, with a new name, they’ve refashioned their sound, embracing a more ’90s, achingly romantic alt-pop aesthetic. The band has already drawn attention with its lush, full-throated song “Celestina,” thanks to its trippy animated visuals and the muscular “Among the Stars,” presented in a video that features Day of the Dead imagery and neon face paint. Fronted by the charismatic Mr. Kerosene, Frantic Romantic is shooting for something grand and expansive. Levi J and Exophonics share the bill.
