22AugF Yeah Fest 5 Next Weekend In Echo Park

JAXART Records will be one of the sponsors for this year’s F YEAH FEST in Echo Park. What does that mean? Well it means we gave them a bunch of money to say how much they love us (Kidding).

JAXART is all about supporting the local music scene in Los Angeles and the dudes behind the festival (which is now in its unprecedented 5th year) really work their asses off to make it the ultimate showcase for undiscovered music from not just LA but across the country.

F YEAH FEST 5 will go down next weekend August 30th and 31st. This year’s fest is more than just a festival. It’s a series of events, shows, scavenger hunts, and of course one massive party for a few good causes. Check out all the event details below. Tickets are only $18 and can be purchased in advanced through ticketweb or at the list of shops after the jump.

Tickets for the Scavenger hunt can be purchased at LARecord.com.

All the details after the break!

Show begins at 9PM. Order is below.

Last night The Henry Clay People played with The Whigs and Le Switch at The Echo. Kind of the perfect lineup if you ask me considering that Henry Clay was the founding member of the Whig Party (wiki that shit).

Photographer Benjamin Hoste shot some stellar photos at the show. You can view his entire photo set here. There’s even a photo of yours truly rocking a mean avocado (you heard me) on stage with the Clays during “Children Of Chin.”

07MayCGT Reviews Henry Clays At Viper Room


The Henry Clay People @ The Viper Room (5/5/08) Photo by Mouse

Fancy my luck - This past Monday The Henry Clay People AND Mezzanine Owls were playing two stellar shows on either side of town. I had to make a tough decision and missed Henry Clay People’s show.

BUT thanks to Mouse at Classical Geek Theater’s lengthy review loaded with tons of photos I feel like I was there. Joey apparently got 2/3’s of The Viper Room crowd to do rock jumps during the band’s epic final song. West of La Brea that’s like trying to part the red sea. Joey you deserve a medal.

Read the entire review right here.

The Henry Clay People will play with Le Switch and Division Day next Monday at The Echo while Mezzanine Owls play night 2 of their residency with Eagle And Talon, We Barbarians. and The Black Kites (head to head again!). May 19th you can catch both JAXART bands at Spaceland w/ Eli Paperboy Reed and Lovelikefire.

07MayWeb In Front Mezzanine Owls Live Review

Web In Front - The newest kick ass addition to the LA music blog scene, just posted a fantastic review of night one of Mezzanine Owls residency at Spaceland! You won’t want to miss next week’s lineup of We Barbarians, Black Kites, and Eagle and Talon.

“…the bands created an L.A. inversion of ‘60s pop, ’80s shoegaze, and ‘00s indie which became a bloody valentine of noise that left ears both endlessly ringing and relentlessly giddy.”
