So hopefully by now you get the gist that Little Red Lung are pretty damn awesome in that rehearsal studio of theirs so for the finale we decided to take a break from all that and just go to lunch with them at Nickel Diner -- because a band's gotta eat. What was meant to be a sit-down interview-y talk about music and such turned into a very pleasant afternoon get-together over sandwiches, pastries, and a very welcome reunion with an old friend. But rather than bore you with the chit chat, why not just let the pictures do the talking and set it to their beautiful song "Fangs"? We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed hanging out with the band and we really hope you can make it out tonight at The Satellite.
New self-titled EP available at: iTunes, Amazon, Bandcamp, and littleredlung.com. EP release show 5/10 at The Satellite with special guests Seasons, Dorian Wood, and San Francesca.

For parte numero tres, Little Red Lung performed our favorite LRL track "Get On the Boat," a vicious tune if we ever did hear one. It's the song that solidified our love for them and the song that will perhaps solidify your attendance on Thursday night. Now, let's see if we can finish part 4 by tomorrow...

Part 2 of our daylong hang with Little Red Lung included this performance of "Into A Landfill," which coincidentally appears on their new EP which they will be celebrating the release of on Thursday. It's a gorgeous song that this recording simply doesn't do justice so we highly suggest you obtain the EP ASAP. Part 3 tomorrow...

We're presenting Little Red Lung's self-titled EP release show on Thursday with special guests Seasons, Dorian Wood, and San Francesca. And to get you warmed up we're posting a few videos of the band that we took a few months ago that should give you a good taste of what you will be seeing/hearing/loving that night. They're one of our favorite new bands of the last few years and we have no doubt you'll feel the same when you see them.
This video is the band performing "Porcupine Sheet" at Downtown Rehearsal. It's not on their new EP but it will be coming out soon.

Well, lookie what we have here. Correatown and Daniel Ahearn & The Jones are releasing a new split 7" on Tuesday and we've been given the "oh soooo" difficult task of presenting the show that will likely make that little gathering in Project X look like a tea party. Not only are Angela Correa, Daniel Ahearn, and Mindy Jones three of L.A.'s most revered/respected/re-dorable artists in town but they're also three of our most beloved friends of the scene. In the many years we've known them, we've never heard one bad song in their repertoire and this 7" is no exception -- in fact, they could very well be two of their best. Correatown's "Meridians" is by far her most melodically explosive song since she transitioned from a solo singer-songwriter to a guitar-rock band. And even if you can't hit those high notes like she can, that chorus is still ridiculously addictive to sing along to. If that wasn't enough sugar for one 45, Ahearn and Jones's sweetly catchy "Youth On Your Side" is its perfect companion piece with Ahearn's signature pure vocal and sage-like musings. If you need more reason to love them, you really should check out our recent interviews with DA&TJ.
So it is with great pleasure that we present this 7" release show that will also serve as a pre-SXSW soiree. Also playing are Haroula Rose (who just leaked out a fantastic Hood Internet remix of her song "Lavender Moon") and Fleeting Heart (the new project from Kathleen Grace and Erik Kertes), both of whom we've been wanting to do a show with for quite some time. There will food, drink, and plenty of PDA to go around so please stop by if you can.

Moses Campbell recently released two digital singles on one of the the bestest L.A. labels Deathbomb Arc and are now ready to unveil their new video for "Ceiling." The video captures the perfect day in the Echo Park life storyline for two "everything sucks" dudes (Aaron Olson of Cryptacize/Cobra and Me fame and Lucian) set to the band's raucous anthem that races by at 2:25. Longtime fans should love just how the song sounds light years above anything else they've ever released. Newtime fans should just love the fact that you're hearing Moses Campbell for the first time in such gloriousness.
Tracks are available as a part of the 2012 Deathbomb Singles Club subscription available here.
Moses Campbell performs at Space 15 Twenty on 3/5 and at the Bootleg Bar on 4/8.

There are so many free residencies in Los Angeles it's easy to take them for granted but we don't. Not when we remember a time when there weren't any so we'll gladly take advantage of any month-long weeklies we can get. This brings us to Death to Anders who have graciously asked us to hop on the last of their February residency nights at the very cozy Casey's Bar & Grill this Saturday.
For this February finale, Death to Anders have a very special evening planned as the band will be performing Pixies' quintessential album Surfer Rosa. If that weren't enough, Audrey Capotosta of the dearly beloved Teddy's Cheer Club will be playing with them (and afterward promptly taking marriage proposals by us). To hear how hard they rock, do make the effort to download D2A's latest EP "Don't Give Up" at Bandcamp for free. And if you're still having doubts about heading downtown on Saturday, the fact that L.A. indie-pop legends Fonda are opening should change things. We haven't seen this band do a club show in like a decade with the most memorable one coming in 1999 at Club Sucker (the best damn club night in Los Angeles music history and if you don't know that you must new here). The band recently celebrated the release of their fantastic new EP "Better Days" available on iTunes and wherever fine vinyl records are sold (Origami). Buy it asap. And lastly... Not to be confused with the Australian all-girl rock band or the dozens of Roxy Music cover bands out there, L.A.'s Remake/Remodel will likely be obliterating the midnight slot with the party rock they're known for. Be sure to stick around for them.
We do hope you can make it to Casey's on Saturday. All your frenemies will be there getting drunk and brohugging all night and if there is one thing you need on a Saturday night in Los Angeles it's a good loving embrace from a bro -- although please refrain from putting your dirty mitts on us until we've established our game with Audrey. Holla.

This isn't one of our shows but we're giving a special shout-out to Mind The Gap's residency night tonight with Last American Buffalo, The Peach Kings, and The Roads just because we feel like it. The band has been Westsiding it at The Central all month as they warm up for SXSW and probably bigger things to come onward. They've invited a bevy of very attractive local bands to play alongside them and this week might be the prettiest of the pack. Last American Buffalo just wrapped up a fantastic residency of their own at Harvard & Stone last month -- which had us waiting in a line for the first time in years to get in. The Peach Kings are one of LA's hottest new bands with a highly anticipated EP due soon featuring the buzz track "Thieves and Kings." And The Roads are the new duo of Andy Siara from The Henry Clay People and Claire Mckeown from Shadow Shadow Shade and given the reception from recent shows this could lead to something bigger than they expected.
If you like hot new absurdly sexy bands, go to this show, Westside.
