We've moved New Music Tuesday to New Music Friday cuz let's face it, MUSIC SOUNDS BETTER ON A FRIDAY...and it's FRIDAY THE 13TH! Go snuggle a black cat.
Tunes we are excited about this week:
Yay! New Big Thief! “Incomprehensible”…from their album Double Infinity (out 9/5)…I'm not sure what the new album has to do with limes and outer space, but I'm all in...Seeing Big Thief live at Hollywood Forever was one of the best/soul-fulfilling shows of my life, so make sure you catch them when they play the Hollywood Bowl 9/27.

I sooo love David Byrne as well, and he's back with a new one “Everybody Laughs." He also looks amazing, amiright?
DB just announced a new album Who Is The Sky? (out 9/5) which features St. Vincent, Paramore’s Hayley Williams, and The Smile’s Tom Skinner…Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus) produced the album and members of the New York-based chamber ensemble Ghost Train Orchestra arranged the songs…David Byrne plays the Dolby Theatre 11/20 & 21 – tickets on sale today (6/13) 10am through ticketmaster…

We're playing another track off the Lumineers album AUTOMATIC – “*&*% (First We Ever Met)”…it’s a fun song, but had to be edited for the radio, unfortunately (those pesky FCC rules)....this song is going to be so much fun to sing along to when the Lumineers play the Kia Forum Aug 8 & 9…

And public radio gem/Canadian singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards has a new ditty “Save Your Soul”…from her new album Billionaire (out 8/22)… produced by Jason Isbell and Gena Johnson…
Hear these songs on the SoCal Sound.
Until next time, my pretties...
Your (sometimes) fearless Music Director,
