Bridezilla EP – Album Review
Delivering beautiful music filled with luscious breathy vocals and a delicate yet powerful orchestration of sound, Australian quintet Bridezilla, is set to release their EP in September. Already nearing completion of their highly anticipated LP, Bridezilla has played alongside Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, The Dirty Three and Sia. In the emotionally powerful track “St. Francine,” front-woman Holiday Carmen-Sparks, radiates such an intense sound similar to that of Bjork. The saxophone reels in a jazz feel, while strangely enough, the violin adds some pleasing chaos. It’s quite the an [...]

Sunset Junction 2009 Day 2
Damn was it a boiler on Sunday at Sunset Junction. You know how guys get arm-pit sweat stains, well chick with nice racks get booby sweat. You could tell which ones weren’t wearing a bra this steamy afternoon. I arrived towards the end of the set for Local Natives and was stoked with what I heard. I’ll definitely have to check them out live for a full show. Moving onto Fool’s Gold, they’re such an amazing ensemble of exotic island music. With about 11 people deep on stage, they used [...]

Sunset Junction 2009 Day 1
“Bloody hell, there’s so many hot girls here!” My Aussie partner-in-crime could not help but notice how many lovely ladies were at this year’s Sunset Junction.

Since it was one of the hottest weekends in Cali, there were a lot of sexy skins running around with their tan bodies glistening under the sun. Although it was [...]
