[Ashley Bryan]

Hello - 
Press Here has some amazing artists playing in LA next week - let us
know if you'd like to check out any of these shows!

 

HOLLERADO * February 20th @ House of Blues Anaheim (w. GANG OF FOUR)

                        February 21st @ The Music Box (w. GANG OF FOUR) 

Canadian rock favorites Hollerado are currently on tour with Gang of
Four and will be playing two Los Angeles area shows - February 20th at
House of Blues in Anaheim and February 21st in at the Music Box in Los
Angeles! The Juno award nominees made a splash this year with their
one-take video for "Americanarama" which has received nearly 800,000
views (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Whv1tLqKZig ). They spent much of
2010 on the road with Free Energy, and released their stellar debut
album, Record in a Bag on Arts & Crafts. Their live set is joyful and
full of energy and a confetti machine is a staple of every gig they
play. They've become big favorites at esteemed radio stations like KEXP
and are hosting one of their "Nacho House" parties at SXSW year, which
consists of a curated line-up of bands and, as the name suggest, nachos.
The band even created their own brand of hot sauce, which they sell with
them on the road.

INNERPARTYSYSTEM * February 25 @ The Wiltern - supporting Pendulum

Innerpartysystem, making some of the most compelling and sophisticated
electronic music you've heard in years, is currently on tour with
Pendulum for a run of winter dates leading up to SXSW. With
cutting-edge, innovative programming techniques, the band
hand-manipulates loops and effects live on stage with both incredible
precision and genius improvisation. It's a mind-blowing mash-up of
hyped-up vocals, live programming, live drums and an out-of-this-world
hand-programmed light show! Their new Never Be Content EP, which
features a new edit of single "American Trash," is out digitally Feb 22
and physically March 29 on Red Bull Records. Danceable, evocative and
moody, it's everything you could want in an EP and more. Self-described
gearheads with an infatuation for synthesizing sounds, they wrap their
electronic soundscape around memorable hooks and a finely-tuned
songcraft. Don't miss them in LA on Feb 25th!

"...the manner in which they layer and blend throbbing grooves, driving
beats and often jarring electronic squeeps and woobles has a real
excitement to it... they once more bring their A-game..." -
AlternativePress.com

"Returning with a new label, Pennsylvanians Innerpartysystem are back,
combining the sweat-soaked danceability of clubland with a DIY punk
attitude. Mixing hard beats with pop sensibilities on this latest
single, the band take electronic music and wrap it around pop songs.
Mission accomplished." - Music Week (UK)
