The real magic comes here:
OV has a lineup of Echo Park Rising in-stores all weekend and darn-it if you won't want to come hang here and check them out.
What follows is a list of said in-stores organized by time and day. No time for thank you's - just read:
TODAY
4PM:
Bür Gür – Sample-centric indie pop from behind a computer screen- punching buttons, playing guitars. Sweetly singing the tears from your eyes.
5PM:
Archer Black – Dense, orchestral indie rock that writes your ears into a movie score. Avante enough for the thinkers, dense enough for the feelers.
6PM:
Vug Arakas – Rock and roll and rock and rock and roll. Classic as coke in a can, Vug brings Westerberg style vocals and lyrics into the now.
7PM:
Luther Russell – A multi-instrumentalist capable of a veritable triple threat of psychedelic acoustic strummers, piano ballads and road trip rockers.
8PM:
Tennis System – When punk straps on its shoe gaze and tops it all with deadpan surf rock vocals. We’re Down.
--------set--------
SATURDAY
4PM:
Island Boy – What do french house, reggaeton, latin freestyle, and new wave have in common? Island Boy.
5PM:
Omid Walizadeh – The once hip hop producer digs into his roots to bring us beats and bass injected with a painstakingly curated slew of samples from rare Persian tapes and vinyl from the 60’s and 70’s.
6PM:
Tashaki Miyaki – All the glassy chimes and charms of dream-pop with a heart parked hard in lo-fi, garage spirit.
7PM:
BOUQUET – Contemplative, art pop. Delicate, smooth and slightly psychedelic, BOUQUET works to marry the auditory and the visual in an intentional, pristine package.
8PM:
The Mynabirds – Singer/songwriter Laura Burhenn brings her distinct, soulful vocal to a canvas of percussive, pointillist, pop rock.
