The Jakes @ eVocal, The Living Suns @ La Cave & The Studiofix @ The Prospector TONIGHT

KUCI is not competing with KROQ fyi. They are two totally different stations. When an artist does get some play on a mainstream station, then that's great. I'm so glad that KROQ is supporting independent artists in Orange County like The Jakes. Yet I don't know how much promotion it is since there is only one hour a week dedicated to independent local bands. If only they were played more during the week!! Lets make it happen...that's my plan. So The Jakes will have the second show of their residency at eVocal tonight. The show is with Dolphin City, Run Doris Run and The Outline. It's all ages and free plus there is food, drinks, DJs and art! Show starts at 7 p.m. (super early, I know!).
Here's a promo that the guys made for their residency.



After the eVocal show, you can easily head down the street to La Cave to catch a last minute/surprise show with The Living Suns AND after stopping by head over to The Prospector in Long Beach to see The Studiofix. A lot is happening on this great Tuesday...and on top of all of that it is Taco Tuesday...go get them tacos!!

Whatever you decide to do, I hope you go to a show and support your local music.

HB's MOOSTACHE have residency at Detroit Bar in MAY!

Huntington Beach's Moostache start their residency at Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa TONIGHT! For the month of May, the band will be playing a FREE show every Monday with their good friends Evening Hour. Tonight, special guest band is The New Limb, each Monday they'll have a different third band to add to the lineup. Should be LOTS of fun. Moostache is a fairly new band with a whole lot of talent. Actually the lead singer Patrick is still in high school, I have to mention that because his voice rocks for such a young person plus he's one of my favorite high schoolers. ; )
Don't forget to bring your dancing shoes.

Lineup for tonight (from first to last):
The New Limb
Moostache
Evening Hour


Here is the band playing the first-ever KUCI Night at the Yost Theater on April 23, 2009.
