TONIGHT IN SAN FRANCISCO - THE RUMBLE: SAN FRANCISCO @ HARLOT

Two acts that are on the rise quickly - LOCAL NATIVES (Los Angeles) and OONA (Oakland) - are performing mini-sets at tonight's THE RUMBLE: SAN FRANCISCO at Harlot. This show will be one of those in six months to a year you'll revisit the poster and realize that this line up contained to acts that are now what everyone takes for granted as established and cherished, so come out tonight and witness some stars in the making. The guest DJ for the evening is DJ EDDY BAUER from KALX and he joins our resident bad bay, BAGEL TED (Bagel Radio). There will be the usual drink specials and people making out, pinching asses, and the general horseplay the occurs at The Rumble.

We'll be giving out hard copies of FUTURE SOUNDS 33 (which features LOCAL NATIVES) tonight at the party. Ask for Evan.

JUST ANNOUNCED - THE LINE UP FOR THE RUMBLE: SF JULY

Still basking in the glory of last night's LOCAL NATIVES set in Hollywood at our party at Space15Twenty, we doubled our pleasure by confirming the Natives to our RUMBLE: SF party at Harlot next week for our July party. The local buzz act, OONA, a voice and a talent that will spill outside the Bay area soon enough, joins the evening, as does DJ Eddy Bauer.

The RSVP link is already up > http://sonicliving.com/therumble

Our partners in the Rumble: SF, THE OWL MAG, sent the sweet Mari out to have beers with OONA and it was girls gone wild....

PHOTOS FROM LAST NIGHT'S FUTURE SOUNDS PRESENTS

It may have started off a little chilly (LA > Chilly = 68 degrees) but after SEAN BONES jumped on stage the place warmed up quickly at Space15Twenty in Hollywood. By the time LOCAL NATIVES began their set, the night was gorgeous under the stars and the glow of the Capitol Records building and Amoeba.

Here are a few pics from last night's FUTURE SOUNDS PRESENTS party....

TONIGHT IN LOS ANGELES: FS PRESENTS SEAN BONES + LOCAL NATIVES

FUTURE SOUNDS and BUZZBANDS.LA have teamed up to present a night of up-and-coming bands at Space15Twenty in Hollywood on June 23, 2009. Party starts at 7pm.

Frenchkiss Records have released the debut album, "Rings" by Brooklyn's SEAN BONES, and we've been loving the infusion of white boys doing indie-reggae. The first two singles, "Easy Street" and "Sugar In My Spoon" were brilliant, and new track, "Dancehall" continues the rub-a-dub sound.

LA's LOCAL NATIVES could be the hottest unsigned US band in the UK at the moment, being chased around by everyone last week over there, they return home as local champions that we're very proud of. We're thrilled to announce that their song, "Airplanes" will be featured on FUTURE SOUNDS 33, to be released on June 30th.

Kevin Bronson (Buzzbands.LA) and LLDope (Future Sounds) will hit the decks tonight to warm it up for the bands and the Cool Haus Ice Cream truck is coming for free treats.

The party is FREE

SPACE15TWENTY is at 1520 N Cahuenga Blvd in Hollywood
