MISS LIGHTNING, Eagle Wolf Snake, North By North, The Riot Professor
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Miss Lightning
We're a bam boom bang boogie band from San Francisco, CA.
Eagle Wolf Snake
EagleWolfSnake is one of the tightest, fullest sounding trios I’ve heard in quite awhile. Just listen to their debut EP for evidence: layered vocals that make choruses arena-ready, chiming guitar lines that effortlessly float through the driving beats, deceptively simple song structures featuring big melodic hooks and an explicit desire to get your feet moving. You can reference everyone from the Speaking In Tongues incarnation of the Talking Heads to any era of Franz Ferdinand (because, let’s face it, those guys never really did change up their sound, did they?), but for brevity’s sake, it’s better just to classify the band as danceable rock/pop ear candy. “Empty Weather” is especially catchy and so concisely constructed you’ll wish it was longer than just two-and-a-half minutes.
North By North
Chicago garage duo North by North's surf-inspired rock & roll conjures images of catching waves off the Hawaiian coast all day before chasing the sun and sand with a swanky cabaret-club nightcap. They start from a foundation that channels bands like The Black Keys & The White Stripes, but quickly set themselves apart by adding adventurous, esoteric instrumentation—from cello and trumpet to tack piano. [They have an uncanny ability to blend blues, surf and cabaret into a heady rock & roll stew.
The Riot Professor
The Riot Professor is a Bay Area indie rock band that likes to improvise. According to the East Bay Express, their self titled album contains “the chaotic sound of instruments tuning and breaks into a stripped-down acoustic-guitar melody reminiscent of Neutral Milk Hotel. The album continues to get interesting, with off-kilter keyboards, trombone and woodwinds, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young-esque harmonies that echo and bend around distorted, psychedelic arrangements.” They released two EPs earlier this year, pushing their sound into dark caves and flowing oceans, always keeping a hand on a guitar. You might hear The Beatles, Tame Impala, Pink Floyd, or Sufjan Stevens.
