My favorite L.A. garage band celebrates its single release tonight at the Silverlake Lounge, as sponsored by Rawkblog. They will be loud and charming. There’s more of the latter in this interview/performance video they did with BestNewBands.com (did Pitchfork not trademark that yet?), in which Danny Bobbe does his unintentional best Conor Oberst impression during “Blood Orange.” Also, hey, Ravens & Chimes will join them for their first L.A. date in like three years! Sell your copy of The Suburbs back to Origami and come give them beer money.

A jam-filled PSA from my day job: we have another free, rad show at the Echoplex tonight with L.A.’s own Airlines and yOya. Be ready to dance and feel really poignant emotions, respectively. Maybe both at once. See you there.
Once again, I’m Coachella-bound this year. Here’s my tentative schedule/band advice — see you in the desert. I’ll be covering (with a photo pass!) for Brand X, so keep an eye out. Read the rest of this entry »
Tonight, Brand X presents its second L.A. Unheard concert based on my weekly column. The bands: Puro Instinct, whose new album fulfills the promise of the early EPs and should mainline right to your dream-pop pleasure centers, and So Many Wizards, who don’t have a new record to gush over but are nevertheless tremendous. The price: Free! Seriously. Because we love you.
In other words: come to the show! And go click on Brand X! Ask nice and I might buy you a beer.
Puro Instinct – “Stilyagi”: mp3 So Many Wizards – “Nico”:mp3
More L.A. tour dates on the ongoing calendar, which you can add to Gcal, etc.
