THE MORNING BENDERS COMING TO LA

THE MORNING BENDERS are headed back down to LA in celebration of their May 6th release of "Talking Through Tin Cans". They're headed out on the road with THE KOOKS, but will get to be the big show when they visit Los Angeles for a release party at The Echo on The 8th. Without giving it away, ok I'll give it away, we love this band so much they'll be showing up on Future Sounds 32.

THE MORNING BENDERS TO HIT THE ROAD WITH THE KOOKS

A band of the nicest guys out there, THE MORNING BENDERS, are gearing up for their first ever tour of the US, and they get quite an introduction to touring by supporting THE KOOKS. They are set to release their first single, "Waiting For A War" on 7" vinyl and then next on Itunes, as we wait for the full length (which I'm fortunate to have already and it's fantastic!).

TONIGHT IN LA: THE MORNING BENDERS @ SPACELAND

That Berkeley band that is someone to watch in 2008, THE MORNING BENDERS, come down to play some southern California shows and hit the stage tonight at 9:30pm at Spaceland. I received an early copy of their full-length that will be released later this year and it's excellent.

TONIGHT IN LA: VOXHAUL BROADCAST + MORNING BENDERS

Wednesday, December 12 - SIlverlake Lounge - $8

THE ROSEWOOD THIEVES 10:30pm
EUGENE 9:40pm
EYES IN ELEGANCE 11:30pm
VOXHAUL BROADCAST 8:50pm
MORNING BENDERS 8pm

Looks like a great line up tonight in Silverlake. VOXHAUL BROADCAST are like a runaway train right now, and we've been fans of San Francisco's MORNING BENDERS since FS26, but I was recently delivered their full-length, set for 2008 release, and this record is going to be on the favorites list of many. People seem to love THE ROSEWOOD THIEVES, and I've yet to see them live but am told it's worth it, as well as EUGENE that seems to have promise. Worth the ticket price for this much music.

MONDAY NIGHT IN LA: TOO MANY CHOICES

First off, SPIRITUALIZED are back, and playing at the Vista Theatre!!

San Francisco's THE MORNING BENDERS (FS26) play with Gliss and others at The Viper Room. Keep an eye on this band in 2008, things are going to happen.

I can't forget a band I really love, THE JEALOUS GIRLFRIENDS (FS24) from Brooklyn, playing the Silverlake Lounge tonight for free.
