Merchandise Playing "School Yard"


Merchandise came through town last weekend and I got to see them last Friday and Saturday with Wild Moth.  This band is a bizarre mix of many things but it works.  Sort of an ambient dream pop, Merchandise play a set that is a very fun experience.  They just came out with a new record Childeren Of Desire which is a really great album that is growing on me with every listen.  The topper on the cake for me is their guitarist is David Vassalotti, who has an incredible solo project which you can hear a song from in my 3rd Mix Tape.  Enjoy the video and try and catch these boys while they are on tour.

New Wild Moth Song!

Last week we got to see Wild Moth really tear it up at a few shows with Joyce Manor.  While most of us were expecting to see songs from their debut release we got to hear a few totally new ones as well.  This is one of those brand new songs that you will get to hear on an upcoming release of theirs.  Enjoy and get stoked!

Merry Christmas at McWorld

Last night I went to a show in LA that I was pleasantly surprised was at McWorld, an art space and venue that closed a year or two ago.  I guess the space re-opened and is back in action.  Merry Christmas played, who I had heard of a long time ago and was way overdue in seeing live.  They played a really great set and the switching back and forth between guitarists doing vocals kept the songs real fresh. The song is "Teenage Jackie" from their EP "Various And A Sundry" but check out all their songs, they're worth it.

Awol Land of Opportunity

Ok, so usually I only post sort of punk stuff on this site but I am making an exception for this.  I have been trying to do music videos for a while but it is hard to get everyone on the same page and free up the time for it.  This video is real simple, but the point is to show y'all that music videos are sick and to make you hit me up if you want one.  So enjoy the vid and if ya like it check Awol's link below.

Shoppers

Shoppers just came through SF and killed it at their show.  They play ambient punk with just enough drive coming through to really get you going.  I would say they are of those bands that sounds much better live than recorded so if you are into the recordings you should definitely try and catch their set when they come to your town.

Summer Vacation playing Don't Panic

Summer Vacation just came up to the bay and played a kick ass show.  They just came out with a killer album called Condition that is really incredible.  I've seen these dudes play a lot and one of the best things ever is screaming the words to every one of their songs.

Heavy Flow playing "Head is a Hive"

Heavy Flow is a band from Santa Barbara that popped up recently.  The band features members of Water Color Paintings and Girl Band.  This band is much darker than any of the previous members projects but the harmonies and plucky guitar translate well into this genre.  This also happens to be the first show I have shot with my new camera so enjoy the lush picture.
