Dilator
Elgin, IL
Hailing from Elgin, Illinois, Dilator is crossing state lines and making the trip to Beloit this September to put on a killer show at DEVIATE. In their DEVIATE debut, the group plans to combine elements of a variety of genres like post-punk and hardcore.
DEVIATE gets better every year and its groups like Dilator that contribute to the success of the event by keeping the vibes high all night long. Grab your friends, get your tickets and we’ll see you in downtown Beloit this September.
Tell us about you. We are a group from in and around Elgin, IL. Our aim as a band is to combine elements of post-punk, hardcore, new wave, and dance music.
What inspires your art? We love anything new wave (joy division, talking heads, etc.) as well as modern hardcore (Lurk, Angel Du$t, etc.)
Knowing DEVIATE is an experiential, interactive art event, how do you envision participating? By putting on a killer show of course!
How did you find out about DEVIATE and why do you want to be involved? I was recommended to apply by a friend! It seems like a super cool event. I always love the idea of putting different mediums together and giving artists that wouldn’t usually interact the opportunity to network with each other.
