“Thirst Trap Live became his lightning-speed, pop-up performance that lasts approximately 15-
20 minutes, and features all of Darkholme’s original songs and videos. He custom built a portable stage, with lights, visuals and projections all synced to live music — like if Britney Spears’ Vegas residency was shrunken down, and designed to be hauled on the subway and stored inside a studio apartment. “I want my show to look like if Lady Gaga was poor and on public access,” Darkholme says.”

Rig
THE RIG for THIRST TRAP LIVE was built to be visually striking, compact and portable. The idea was to build a show that could be quickly erected in small venues or outdoor spaces that otherwise lack infrastructure for an audio-visual display.
THE AUDIO-VISUAL SYSTEM for “Thirst Trap Live” was designed and engineered by Roman, and financed by his side- hustle as a sassy waitress.
2020
THIRST TRAP LIVE has proven to be malleable when needed, turning live concerts to live streams and socially distant outdoors shows. You can watch Roman performing THIRST TRAP LIVE on instagram live, IGTV, and in pop-up shows around NYC.
