Saturday the 17th at Turner Hall Ballroom, Other Lives caught me off guard in the sense that it was an incredible performance. I had a similar experience in Salt Lake City while checking out City and Colour and I feel like a broken record for saying this, but the best shows always seem to be the ones you attend with little to no expectations! These are the shows you walk away with more than you walked in with. I was tardy to the venue, but fortunate enough to catch Copenhagen's "Indians," the alter ego of [...]

Oklahoma orchestral rockers Other Lives gave the El Rey Theatre a concert on Saturday night that was as close to a religious experience as a secular band could muster. Celebrating their 10-year anniversary as a band — and clearly celebratory at their burgeoning popularity — the band cast a 70-minute spell over the sold-out crowd that bordered on sacred. ||| Photos by Kelsey Heng After virtually nonstop touring in support of their highly regarded 2011 album “Tamer Animals,” Other Lives cherished the moment.

Fahrenheit 451: Kitap kağıtlarının yanıp tutuştuğu ısı derecesidir. Kısa bir süre kaybettiğimiz, Fahrenheit 451 kitabının yazarı Ray Bradbury "Yaya" isimli hikayesinin kafasında nasıl oluşutuğu şöyle anlatıyor. Los Angeles'ta orta Wilshire'de bir yazar arkadaşla yürüyerek konuşuyordum. Bir polis arabası durdu ve polis memuru çıkarak ne yaptığımızı sordu. Ben ukala dümbeleği "Ayaklarımızın birini diğerinin önüne koyuyoruz," diye yanıtladım. Bu, doğru yanıt değildi. [...]

Words by Ace Ubas , Photos by Marcello Ambriz Saturday night at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles was a special night for Oklahoma-based quintet Other Lives as it marked their 10-year anniversary as a band. But if you’ve been following them for the past couple of years, that’s not the only thing that makes them special. In the past, they’ve opened for seminal acts such as Radiohead and Bon Iver, and rode the festival circuit that included Coachella. ...

Selling out the El Rey on Saturday night came as no surprise as Oklahoma's Other Lives have been gaining support from fans opening up for Bon Iver, Radiohead and performing at Coachella.

If you're not familiar with the overwhelmingly beautiful overtures created by this band, Mind The Gap is the perfect portal to step through into the world of Other Lives.

New Jersey group Titus Andronicus give us the business with their anticipated third album on which they trade concept for execution. Local Business is the closest thing to actually attending one of their live shows and features, according to our Music Director, Don Yates, "a cleaner and slightly more polished sound, generally more compact songs, less ragged singing and more personal and direct lyrics." And in case you're thinking this is a more grown up version of the band, he adds that it "hits just as hard as before, combining stirring folk-influenced melodies and energetic rhythms [...]
