HOT FLASH HEAT WAVE & MIND’S EYE

at The Independent (8pm)
The San Francisco-bred, LA-based trio of Adam Abildgaard, Nick Duffy, and Ted Davis have built a loyal following and constant buzz over the last several years, with the 2019 EP 'Mood Ring' standing as their most kaleidoscopic work to date. Merging the quintessential melodies of pop's past with contemporary touches to forge something truly unique, Hot Flash Heat Wave is just starting to create their own sonic world.

More about Hot Flash Heat Wave:

Hot Flash Heat Wave is a sun-glazed rock band based in San Francisco. A four-headed fabled musical lagoon-dwelling beast, HFHW emerges from the murky depths to bring songs that combine their offbeat sense of humor with their darkest unspoken desires. They create a genre-spanning blend of dreamy guitar hooks and melodies over dirty rock 'n' roll grooves, which they aptly call "Heat-Wave". Their newest set of tracks tells an electric story of the bohemian odyssey, spanning from the gutters of San Francisco to the shimmering west coast surf. With poolside jams and crooning group vocals, HFHW's music finds itself swirled in youthful solace through the pursuit of love and radical individuality. "Hot Flash Heat Wave have been one of my favorite discoveries this year; the San Francisco-based early twenty-somethings craft a serene blend of power-pop and surf-rock that manages a bevvy of punchy hooks despite the amiable nonchalance." - Obscure Sound

Mind's Eye
https://www.mindseyesucks.com

Mind's Eye are in the midst of a career-making year, including their first US headline tour (sold out shows in Orange County, San Diego, Phoenix, and LA @ El Rey), support tours with late night drive home and Hockey Dad, and nearing 70 million global streams. Over the course of the past two years, the high-energy quintet have developed a rampantly loyal and perpetually growing fanbase, depicted beautifully here in the band's recent TikTok. Hailing from the backyards and skateparks of the Bay Area indie scene, Mind's Eye blends elements of SoCal indie, surf, and alt rock to create their signature sound. Jangly guitar riffs, melodic bass lines, and lyrics that reflect on love and heartbreak are all staples of the band's style. Following the success of their breakout single "Wasted Affairs," they debuted their full-length studio album Long Nights and Wasted Affairs, and the record's fresh sounds and more experimental production made the band a staple in the SoCal indie scene.
