This Weekend: Brokechella + Record Store Day

This Weekend: Brokechella + Record Store Day Big Photos / photo by David Greenwal d Friendly reminder: if you're in Los Angeles on Saturday, you could do worse than plunking down $5 to take in a handful of L.A.'s finest bands at the annual Brokechella one-day festival downtown. It'll be the last show for a while for Big Moves, one of my local favorites (and favorites, period), before an indefinite hiatus, so expect a set to remember. Some new details on the fest, which Rawkblog is sponsoring: they'll have $3 beer and wine from 4-6 p.m. and cheap eats from Starry Kitchen all day. (And [...]

Best of 2011: Favorite Songs of the Year

Taylor Swift - Ours
BEST OF 2011 : Songs | Albums (soon) | EPs/Singles | Discoveries/Heavy Rotation | Photos A really good year! The first 40 or so are mega-jams and the latter 38 (Rawkblog loves you, baby) are still jams. I purposefully left out songs by Destroyer because I couldn't decide, so consider Kaputt represented. You can play the entire page with the handy Ex.fm player in the bottom right corner, stream the playlist on Spotify and Rdio , and download everything after the jump. [...]

Best of 2011: Favorite EPs/Singles of the Year

If 2010 was the year of the EP , 2011 was the year of the... not EP. While 73s and Bandcamp singles haven't killed the album off just yet, there was no shortage of tasty bite-size release this year. 10. Wet Years - Sleepy Cove cassette From the opening moments of "No Surf" - guitar murmurings that sound like gulls' cries - Wet Years make their beach allegiance clear, but the band dips into reverb only for the final brushstrokes on an [...]

Video: Big Moves, ‘Inspiration as a Recurring Theme’

Big Moves - Inspiration As a Recurring Theme
Nobody in these parts quite sounds like Big Moves , the L.A. quintet that ties jazzy sophistication and punk energy into stylish knot and adorns it with a bow of Jess Imme's powerful vocals. They set the bar high with their 2008 album "In the Beginning," and their "Lanterns" EP earlier this year demonstrated that Imme, Blake Straus, Wes Singerman, David Cowin and Taylor Dexter have no interest in dumbing anything down. This month the fivesome embarked on a project called "Big Moves Mondays," which will see the band release a single and a video on the [...]

The 8 Best Unsigned Bands in Los Angeles | 2011 Edition

The 8 Best Unsigned Bands in Los Angeles | 2011 Edition Lord Huron / all photos by David Greenwald For the last 13 months, I've written a weekly column first for Brand X and currently the Los Angeles Times dubbed L.A. Unheard. The goal is to point out promising new local artists; during a short-lived concert series, we gave them the chance to play some cool shows, too. I've tried very hard to avoid hype and trends and go with my gut, which means the column's probably missed a lot of fresh electro and hip-hop, though we've managed to catch Foster the People, Hanni El Khatib [...]

GIVERS - Meantime
Happy Monday .. no, I really mean that: ► Louisiana-based quintet Givers bring the exuberant pop off their debut album "In Light" to the Troubadour — it's their second swing through L.A. in three months (they were good at the Bootleg in June), and this time they'll get to do the Jimmy Kimmel Show (on Tuesday). That's Givers' video for "Meantime," above. ► Arty jazz-pop five-piece Big Moves kick off their residency at the Bootleg Theater on a night Alex Steuerwald of Mere Mortals debuts his new project United Ghosts [...]

Ears Wide Open: Big Moves

Ears Wide Open: Big Moves The eclectic jazz-pop of L.A. quintet Big Moves can sometimes seem like an exercise in musical aerobics as much as songwriting, but their adventurous spirit and labyrinthine arrangements will appeal to sophisticates who like their artists to color outside the lines. The group's new "Lanterns" EP — the follow-up to 20082s album "In the Beginning" — finds Jess Imme's nimble, clarion vocals playing hopscotch with the piano and guitar lines and percussion laid out by bandmates Blake Straus, David Corwin, Taylor Dexter and Wes Singerman. "Parrot" chirps with almost mathematical precision; "Groundbreaking Studies" has a ’90s [...]
