New Wave/80s Music in Salt Lake City

Everything old is new again at some point, which helps explain the Salt Lake City new wave 80s music resurgence currently being witnessed in the music world. Slightly reminiscent of punk rock but much more given to the sounds of synthesizers and electronic sounds, the new wave 80s sound is one that borrows heavily from various genres such as disco and experimental music to produce a sound that is distinctive. Some of the genre’s most celebrated names include the Talking Heads, Debbie Harry, and Franz Ferdinand.
