LCD Soundsystem and Beach House give otherworldly performances for Outside Lands day one There are very music festivals that are graced with both the locale and the finances to escape the urban sprawls of the major cities they live in the shadows of. Festivals like Sasquatch and Bonnaroo are blessed exceptions, while the rest (Lollapalooza, […]

Kendrick Lamar unites East and West hip-hop with electric performance for Panorama day two Words & Photography: Steven Ward British synth pop duo Oh Wonder were the first set to draw in the crowds on Saturday afternoon at Panorama Festival, wooing fans with the sublime atmospherics of its two angel voiced crooners. Relatively immobile behind […]

Last week, the Fox Theater Pomona saw an action-packed lineup of sound and vision as Coachella performers Silversun Pickups and Foals took the stage alongside opening act Deap Vally. Deap Vally, one of our favorite acts from Los Angeles, kicked things off with blast of rock fury. Lead vocalist and guitarist, Lindsey Troy shined on stage. […]

L.A. based band, Silversun Pickups have quite an extensive tour up their sleeve, taking part in this year’s Coachella, Shaky Knees, and Lollapalooza. We last caught the band in 2009 for the LA Weekly Festival, LA 101 where we embraced their return to LA  (after that year’s extensive tour!). The four-piece band has been on […]

If you had walked into The Wiltern Theatre at any point during Foals‘ hour long set last Sunday night, you would’ve been hard-pressed to believe that the quintet itself hasn’t been around very long. Antidotes was released a measly seven years ago, an event that even I’m old enough to remember–yet Yannis Philippakis and his […]

Day three of Outside Lands was all about trying to see, do and eat as much as possible. Despite all the overlapping set times and big crowd (just as big, if not bigger than Saturday), I bounced around to try and catch at least a little bit of everything. Foals rocked an impressive early set, […]

The English dance-punk/math-rock band Foals won over our dancing feet with their debut album Antidotes. This year, they released their third album, Holy Fire with the crowd pleasing single “My Number.” We caught them earlier this year at their sold out show at the El Rey Theatre alongside The Neighborhood. Now, they have another show next week […]

We just covered Foals’ wild show at the El Rey Theatre and their set at Coachella, did you attend either? Whether you did or did not, here’s your change to see Foals’ high energy set once again in Los Angeles. Foals will headline the Wiltern on Aug. 9. Supporting Foals are Cayucas and Drowners. Expect […]

Foals headlined a sold -out show at the El Rey Theatre last night with support from the Neighbourhood. It was one hell –of- a -show. Don’t miss both bands at Coachella this weekend. Check out our photo gallery below of Foals with the Neighborhood at the El Rey Theatre! Photography: Monique Hernandez Foals The Neighbourhood […]

Nevermind the earthquakes—Foals shook up Los Angeles with a sold out show at the El Rey Theatre last Monday, October 18th, 2010.  The Oxford band released their sophomore album, “Total Life Forever,” earlier this year through Subpop after the widespread success of “Antidotes.”  Although they’ve traded their aggressive math rock for a more chilled out […]
