One is the loneliness number, so then two is the best way to enjoy the Treasure Island Festival. Just look at all the twos: 1) We gave two different bands, 2) both playing on different days (2 days), 3) two sets of questionnaires, 4) which we collected at two different points (pre- and post-performance), 5) with the hopes that together they would give two different perspectives, 6) on two very different days of the Treasure Island Music Festival. The Limousines performed on Saturday along with other electro influenced groups like Brazilian Girls, Passion Pit, and MSTRKFT to a young, [...]

In my honest opinion, Treasure Island Music Festival is the best music festival I have ever attended. The line-up this year was filled with the best of who’s-who in the indie music world without it compromising reputation by booking a radio-friendly act in order to boost ticket sales. Besides, both dates were sold out and for good reason. So let’s go over Day One first; first off, not the best day. Not a bad day by any means though. Bay Area’s own The Limousines kicked off the festival at a perfectly upbeat and energetic [...]

This weekend, the San Francisco Bay Area will host one of the last major festivals of the year, with the Treasure Island Music Festival. Based on previous year's lineups, the festival is put together to showcase an array of emerging artists, along with those that have broken out. MIA, Vampire Weekend, Modest Mouse, The Raconetuers, Justice, Tegan and Sara, and Fleet Foxes have performed in years past. This year features a stellar lineup with MGMT and The Flaming Lips headlining alongside noteworth bands such as Grizzly Bear, Girl Talk, MSTRKFT, and The Decemberists to name a few. [...]

[mp3] The Limousines: "Very Busy People" If you thought the "iPod Commercial" genre topped out with Feist's "1234" or "Bruises" by Chairlift, prepare to have your mind blown. San Francisco's bubbly new electro-pop duo The Limousines have officially taken the genre to the next level. Well, technically they aren't IN the "iPod Song" genre because they haven't licensed their tune to Apple, but c'mon, are we gonna split hairs? If Apple can't overlook a few self-abuse references to have the actual word [...]
Could this be the tastiest Smörgåsbord yet? Let your palates be the judge of that. Today slice into a succulent slab of The Limousines, have some of The Bloody Beetroots on the side, and finally munch your way into another offering of Discovery full of delightfulness. The dinner bell has rung. The Limousines - Very Busy People (mp3) from Very Busy People [Single] The Bloody Beetroots - Awesome (feat. The Cool Kids) (mp3) from Awesome [Single] [...]

We told you about the rumors a few months ago, and now we've got a confirmed lineup for the 2009 Treasure Island Festival (with most of the rumors turning out to be true). The two-day festival will be headlined by MGMT and the Flaming Lips . As with the past two years, the folks at Another Planet Entertainment kept the two days largely broken up by genre with electronic artists dominating Saturday's lineup and Sunday dedicated to more straight-forward indie. The lineup again includes a healthy dose [...]
Come October 17th and 18th, the Treasure Island Music Festival will return to San Francisco’s Treasure Island for its third go around. This particular year promises to feature two days of “stellar and diverse" music, with Saturday geared more toward the electric side of things, while Sunday will offer an indie-like feel. As a result, the folks behind Treasure Island have tapped MGMT, MSTRKRFT, Girl Talk, Dan Deacon, Passion Pit, Brazilian Girls, LTJ Bukeum, DJ Krush, Murs, Frederico Aubele, The Streets, The Limousines and Crown City Rockers for Saturday and The Flaming Lips, The Decemberists, Beirut, [...]
The first show to take place on the new patio of the Beaumont Club was the lovely titled "Red, White and Blow It Out Your Ass", a free show from 96.5 the Buzz in response to the local pop station's annual fest. Beaumont patio actually turned out to be a better venue than the inside of the club. Despite the warm weather, a light breeze made it feel cooler and the unevenness of the ground made it so nearly everybody could see the stage...a major contrast from the inside. Canada's Pilot [...]
The Limousines is a San Francisco based duo comprised of vocalist (Eric) and beatmaker (Gio). Their only officially released material thus far is the infectious single "Very Busy People." It's catchy enough to be heard at BBQ's all summer long and shows that the band could have a big future ahead of them in the electro-dance-pop world that MGMT , Passion Pit , Friendly Fires , etc. have made so popular. They're due to play Popscene in SF on 9/3 but have no East Coast dates listed at this time. Check their Myspace for [...]
BFD, by Live 105 , is coming up soon (bleh, right?). Despite having an incredibly unimpressive lineup and a crappy location, the Subsonic Tent is going to be all sorts of awesome. The lineup is as follows: Crystal Castles, DJ AM, Villains, Steve Aoki, Mike Relm, Zion I, Paparazzi, The Limousines, Designer Drugs, DJ Omar, DJ Miles. It’s a solid dance lineup, and for the great price of $25ish, I’m totally going. The group, The Limousines have really caught my attention lately, and I’m excited to see what they can do live. Lloyd introduced me to [...]
Have you guys heard of the Pop's Bar in the Mission? Well, every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month at Pop’s Bar on 2800 24th St. in San Francisco, they host a thing called DIARY which is a nostalgic night of 90s emo and pop punk music. Including the likes of Sunny Day Real Estate, Death Cab for Cutie, Saves the Day, The Get Up Kids, Braid, Mineral, Planes Mistaken for Stars, Far and Texas Is the Reason . How freakin' cool is that? Anyway, tonight has our friends at ipickmynose [...]
The Limousines are a San Francisco based electro duo. They're composed of Eric on vocals and Gio behind the beats. Apparently they met on the internet and later formed The Limousines leaving their previous individual projects. I can see this act getting big. They've released their first single 'Very Busy People' on iTunes but I don't think it's available in the UK. You can hear it below in the audio player (: Very Busy People - The Limousines
Today's tune was introduced to me via a text-message from a college/golf-buddy last weekend; thanks Curty-Pop. The Limousines are an electronic/indie-pop band hailing from the San Francisco Bay area. Very Busy People was released as a single on Tuesday of last week, and can be downloaded via iTunes here . I did a fair bit of digging around, but couldn't find any information on an upcoming LP or EP release from the band. If anyone has any leads on that please hook us up with some info.

It gets kind of rough in the back of this vehicle. Sure, local venue 12th & Porter went through some tough times--even getting shut down at one point--but those are in the past, and the new ownership ... Continue reading "12th & Porter Wants to Be Your Favorite Nashville Venue" >
The Bay Area's The Limousines have been gradually making a name for themselves with their infectiously catchy single, Very Busy People . After their last San Francisco gig, I was surprised to hear that a majority of the attendees were there to see the duo, which they were not even headlining...and don't even have a record out yet. The Limos have even snagged an opening slot with rising Norwegian rock musician Ida Maria . So if you find yourself at Popscene SF tonight with a bunch of people that are [...]
