[Carla Senft]

Hello,

Press Here has two not-to-be-missed shows coming up in LA. Please let us know if you would like tickets!


ELIZAVETA * Thursday July 26th @ The WitzEnd - 9pm
Elizaveta is celebrating the release of her exclusive iTunes Session EP with a special show at The WitzEnd in Venice, CA this Thursday July 26th. The 6-song EP includes 6 videos from the intimate recording session at the famed Capitol Studios in Hollywood. For a look at the Russian-American chanteuse's soul-stirring vocals and enchanting piano playing, check out the videos currently streaming in full on the iTunes Store here<http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewMultiRoom?fcId=544520738&s=143441>. Elizaveta's debut studio album Beatrix Runs has garnered her praise for her bold brew of modern opera, piano-pop, electronic and classical elements and her innovative alchemy of 19th-meets-21st century sensibilities.

Praise for Elizaveta:
"jaw-droppingly talented..." - Glamour.com

...a perfectly sweet combination of pop, electronic, and opera that features her dreamy vocals and 19th-meets-21st century mentality." - Nylon

"Elevating music to new heights, Elizaveta continues her role as a brilliant musical innovator who can honestly claim to be doing new things in music that no one else is. - CBS Los Angeles

"...chic and heartwarming..." - AOL Spinner


JJAMZ * Monday, July 30th @ The Wiltern - 7:30pm
JJAMZ (pronounced juh-Jamz) are making their way back home to LA for a special performance at The Wiltern as their run on the Nylon Summer Music Tour supporting Neon Trees comes to a close. Give a shout if you'd like to check them out! JJAMZ is comprised of Jason Boesel (Rilo Kiley, Bright Eyes), James Valentine (Maroon 5), Alex Greenwald (Phantom Planet), Michael Runion (solo), and Z Berg (The Like) - in a musical story of best friends.  Made up of five of music's most exciting trailblazers, the group released their debut album, Suicide Pact, this month via Dangerbird. Suicide Pact was self-produced by the band with the added talents of Jason Lader (Maroon 5, Rilo Kiley, Julian Casablancas). Only friends as close as JJAMZ could provide such a rewarding synthesis of disparate musical tastes, coupled with perilously revealing lyrics; it's as if Rumours were recorded by My Bloody Valentine, Fiona Apple sang "Heart of Glass", or Andrew W.K. wrote Saturday Night Fever. From the Madonna-esque lead single "Heartbeat" to the churning, he-said, she-said "LAX" and the wistfully dark album title track "Suicide Pact" to the crooning, smooth vocal pairings between Berg and Runion on "Cleverly Disguised", each and every song stands on its own as a heart-wrenching narrative and a master course in lyrical prowess.

Praise for JJAMZ:
"Imagine young Madonna as a Britpop act. Or a supergroup from The Like, Maroon 5, Rilo Kiley and Phantom Planet." - USA Today

"...[JJAMZ] has produced one of the year's best indie-rock records so far, full of sticky tunes, chewy guitar textures and some excellently icy vocals." - Mikael Wood, Time Out New York

"Los Angeles supercrew is marooned on a Rilo-esque planet, mines most vanilla bits out of Madonna, Blondie, Fleetwood Mac." - SPIN.com

"...sun-soaked melancholy goes down like a poolside daiquiri, serving up synth shimmers and breathy SoCal alienation (see the excellently hazy 'Heartbeat')..." - Entertainment Weekly

"While JJAMZ is more than the sum of its many parts, that it's filled with anthemic aggressive-pop tracks is no surprise..." - ELLE.com
