Drab Majesty is an American musical project founded by Andrew Clinco in Los Angeles, California in 2011.[5] Clinco, the drummer for the band Marriages, adopted the androgynous character of Deb Demure for the project.[6] Keyboardist and vocalist Mona D (Alex Nicolaou) joined the band in 2016.[7]
Since signing to Dais Records, Drab Majesty has released three albums: Careless (2015), The Demonstration (2017) and Modern Mirror (2019).[8][9][10][11]
Drab Majesty combine androgynous aesthetics and commanding vocals with futuristic and occult lyrics, a style Demure refers to as, "tragic wave". To create his imposing stage presence, Demure employed costumes, makeup and props to accompany his lush, '80s-influenced soundscapes.[12][13]
