Bilmuri presale codes

Bilmuri is the genre-bending project of Johnny Franck, once the clean-voiced guitarist in Attack Attack!, now pushing emo pop into heavier shapes. The biggest recent shift is how the once bedroom-built catalog has become a full-band show with real horns and a thicker low end on stage.

From basement project to packed rooms

He writes glossy choruses over down-tuned guitars, then punctuates them with trumpet lines and sudden drop-outs that make the next hit feel bigger.

Songs you might hear

Expect THICC THICCLY and GOBLIN HOURS, plus a fan-picked deep cut that changes by city. The crowd is a mix of college kids and thirty-somethings who track the jokes in the song titles but belt the melodies without irony. A fun tidbit is that the name riffs on a certain beloved actor, and many tracks begin in his home studio before friends add brass and guest spots. Consider these notes as educated speculation drawn from recent shows and releases rather than firm promises.

The Dolphin Pod in the Wild

The scene around a Bilmuri date skews casual and colorful, with pastel dolphin tees, thrifted windbreakers, and beat-up skate shoes everywhere.

Dolphin colors and inside jokes

Many fans rep all-caps album slogans like RICH SIPS on hats or stickers, and a few lift-themed jokes nod to 400LB BACK SQUAT. When the band drops a brass hook, hands go up in time, and between songs a short MURI chant often bubbles up before the next count-in.

Shared moments in the room

You will hear groups nail the top lines of the choruses, then laugh at the goofy sample tags before diving back into a pit that moves more sideways than violent. Merch tables lean into the dolphin mascot, pastel inks, and tongue-in-cheek fonts, so people tend to leave with something bright rather than black. The room vibe stays friendly, with folks picking up dropped phones and swapping favorite deep cuts while the stage turns over. It feels like a DIY-minded crowd that values humor and melody in equal measure, happy to sing loud and keep it respectful.

How Bilmuri Builds the Boom and Bloom

Live, Bilmuri centers bright, candid tenor vocals with tight stacks of harmonies tucked under the choruses.

Hooks first, heft second

Guitars run in low tunings that make chugs feel wide, while the bass and kick drum move with a spring that keeps everything bouncing instead of plodding. Horns either double the vocal hook or answer it with short phrases, giving riffs a second color that cuts through the mix. Songs often flip to half-time on a line that matters, then snap back fast so the chorus feels like a release.

Small choices, big impact

The drummer favors crisp ghosts and quick cymbal grabs, and the guitarist leaves pockets so brass and voice sit up front. A lesser-known live tweak is that they sometimes drop a tune a half-step on tour to keep high notes honest, and a rhythm guitar layer may be muted so the trumpet can carry a counter-melody. Subtle pads and samples are triggered from the stage to glue sections, while lights tend toward warm washes with brief strobes on breakdown hits. It all reads as music-first choices that make the heavy parts hit and the pretty parts shimmer.

Kindred Roads for Bilmuri Fans

Fans of Dance Gavin Dance will find the same quick guitar runs, rubbery grooves, and bright hooks, with Bilmuri swapping some mathy edges for brass sparkle. If you ride with Dayseeker, the emotive tenor vocals and build-and-burst dynamics map neatly onto the cathartic side of this set. Hail The Sun brings kinetic drumming and agile time shifts that echo how Bilmuri snaps from airy verses into weighty riffs. Listeners into The Home Team will hear the shared love of glossy pop polish over riffy backbones, which makes rooms dance as much as they push. All four acts prize melody while keeping guitars muscular, so the overlap in sing-along moments is real. If your playlist swings between pretty and punchy, this bill sits right in that pocket.
