Thursday July 28 2016 8:00PM doors -- music at 9:00PM ••• ALL AGES $15 Augustines www.weareaugustines.com/ indie rock Cobi www.cobimusic.net/ .Multi dimensional singer songwriter sea knight seaknight.bandcamp.com/ indie pop Augustines Billy McCarthy Eric Sanderson Rob Allen -from NYC -Where their first record was created in relative isolation, “AUGUSTINES” was made “with the awareness that we weren’t going to be alone anymore,” says McCarthy. “This is us handing it over to those people that sang our songs back to us all over the world. “The first record was obviously very personal,” he says. “It was really for us in many ways. There was almost an exchange – we turned from the interior and started considering some of the breathtaking moments that happened to us on the road, in different countries.” Indeed, tracks like the thundering “Cruel City” and the album-closing “Hold Onto Anything” demonstrate a distinctly outward shift in sonic scope, interpolating the holistic experience of West African music into Augustines’ sweeping, multi-faceted sound. “It’s not musicians up on a pedestal,” Sanderson – who studied music in Ghana – says. “The audience is singing, the audience is dancing, they’re all making music together..” That’s what we’ve been trying to do our whole lives as musicians, but only recently have we been able to embrace that.” “It’s all about being inclusive,” McCarthy says. “Interaction is the lifeblood of what we think music is.” Augustines are eager to bring their brilliant new album to a worldwide audience keen for their return. If “RISE YE SUNKEN SHIPS” provided much needed catharsis, “AUGUSTINES” now takes this very special band to an altogether new plane, transcendent and triumphant. Cobi Cobi -from Los Angeles, CA -Signed to Lyor Cohen’s 300 Entertainment. Hit #1 on the Viral 50 chart Check out the massive single ‘Don’t You Cry For Me’ which has already surpassed 4 Million spins on Spotify (released May 6, 2016), fastest rise on the platform for any 300 artist. “A perfect balance of mesmerizing synths and constant percussion.” — Interview Magazine “We love pop with a good heaping spoonful of soul. If you like Hozier, you will really dig Cobi. Edgier sonically.” — Perez Hilton “It has all the elements of a must-listen track, this powerhouse singer-songwriter mixes soulful electricity with gospel on “Don’t You Cry for Me.” — All Things Go Fresh off of a massively successful run as lead vocalist on the Above & Beyond acoustic tour Previously supported Young The Giant, One Republic, All American Rejects. sea knight Linda on vox/guitar, Cory on drums, Patrick on guitars, Sami on bass/violin. -from San Francisco, CA -Equal parts Pixies/Breeders pop smarts and shoegaze-y Mazzy Star haze... slow building to something much more epic, maybe like a girl pop Godspeed, if that makes any sense. It's definitely indie pop, but with a lush sonic palette, and a propensity for epicry that definitely makes sea knight something special." - Aquarius Records "This is an edge of your seat band, and will receive my first ever New Britches Award, because after you see sea knight, you'll need some new ones as your old ones will have been blown away." - iHeartSFBands.com "Quietly captivating, subtly gripping, delicately engrossing... Listen closely and you can pick out some shoegaze, a dash of psychedelia, traces of Sonic Youth angst (especially on 'Concrete' with its pained, questioning refrain) and melodic sensibilities worthy of the Pixies...Fans of minimalist indie rock that can still pack a punch won't want to miss out."- The Bay Bridged "Oscillating tempos, dreary to bright tones and remarkable howls and wails. Frontwoman Linda Sao’s vocals are much more than a voice but a distinct instrument." – Examiner.com |
