While a student at UC Berkeley, he was a news anchor and writer for KALX's morning news; while at Columbia Law School, he created, hosted and produced a weekly music and talk show on WBAR. Until recently, Ben was a securities litigator in the San Francisco office of a prominent international law firm, a practice he left to pursue other legal and artistic interests.",

"content": "\u003caside class=\"aligncenter\">\n\u003ch4>Listen to The Bay Bridged mix of the North Bay’s best indie bands, including tracks by That Ghost, The Vibrating Antennas, Survival Guide, Creative Adult, Brown Bags and more.\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>http://media.libsyn.com/media/thebaybridged/North_Bay_Mix.mp3\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>There’s a reason that Napa and Sonoma are known as “Wine Country,” not “Music Country,” but recent efforts have endeavored to bring the music festival experience to an area that’s understandably known more for great food and drink. Over Memorial Day weekend, the Napa Valley Expo hosted the relaunched \u003ca href=\"http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BottleRock Napa Valley\u003c/a>, which drew tens of thousands to see Outkast, The Cure, and a lineup disproportionately heavy on ’90s radio stalwarts. Just a few days ago, the Huichica Music Festival served up an indie-oriented two-day fest at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.gunbun.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gundlach Bundschu Winery\u003c/a> in Sonoma, a venue that often hosts bands like Real Estate and Foxygen as they head up or down the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s great news for North Bay music fans, but what about the bands native to the North Bay? Over the years, up-and-coming bands have found homes in DIY-oriented spaces like the \u003ca href=\"http://arlenefranciscenter.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arlene Francis Center\u003c/a> and Petaluma’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.thephoenixtheater.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Phoenix Theater\u003c/a>. More recently, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/PIZZAPUNX666\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pizza Punx collective\u003c/a> has emerged, booking affordable and all ages shows that feature local and touring garage and punk bands in Santa Rosa houses and venues alike.

Over Memorial Day weekend, the Napa Valley Expo hosted the relaunched \u003ca href=\"http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BottleRock Napa Valley\u003c/a>, which drew tens of thousands to see Outkast, The Cure, and a lineup disproportionately heavy on ’90s radio stalwarts. Just a few days ago, the Huichica Music Festival served up an indie-oriented two-day fest at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.gunbun.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gundlach Bundschu Winery\u003c/a> in Sonoma, a venue that often hosts bands like Real Estate and Foxygen as they head up or down the coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s great news for North Bay music fans, but what about the bands native to the North Bay? Over the years, up-and-coming bands have found homes in DIY-oriented spaces like the \u003ca href=\"http://arlenefranciscenter.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arlene Francis Center\u003c/a> and Petaluma’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.thephoenixtheater.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Phoenix Theater\u003c/a>. More recently, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/PIZZAPUNX666\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pizza Punx collective\u003c/a> has emerged, booking affordable and all ages shows that feature local and touring garage and punk bands in Santa Rosa houses and venues alike.

Similarly, anyone who looks beyond the success of well-known Bay Area festivals like Outside Lands will find an emotional debate about the city’s ability to foster a healthy, independent music scene rumbling just below the surface. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/series/summer-arts-guide-2014/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/05/SummerArtsGuide-300x250-5.png\" alt=\"SummerArtsGuide-300x250-5\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-10136791\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet, mid-to-small sized, do-it-yourself festivals continue to flourish in San Francisco and the larger Bay Area. While mega-festivals enjoy lucrative corporate sponsorships, ubiquitous press coverage, and huge budgets, small festivals are labors of love produced by Bay Area non-profits, artists, and bands. Make no mistake: it’s a wholly different experience when every ticket sale matters, bands are playing their first festival gigs, and there’s a palpable feeling that attendees are helping keep the Bay Area a musically dynamic place to live. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that vein, the Bay Bridged’s own \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.phonodelsol.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Phono del Sol Music Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> — coming this July — strives to put our favorite local acts on the same stage as nationally renowned artists in sunny Potrero Del Sol, a little-known park on the southeastern edge of San Francisco’s Mission District.

Woodsist has been around long enough now that its reputation precedes it — tickets seemed to sell out almost immediately, as though Bay Area residents need another excuse to fall in love with Big Sur.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s good news for people who dig extravagant light shows, huge crowds, and world-famous bands too: big-budget festivals continued their expansion this summer in the Bay Area. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Approaching name recognition with the likes of internationally renowned festivals like Coachella, the multi-million dollar \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfoutsidelands.com/home/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Outside Lands\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> takes over Golden Gate Park again this August. Already sold-out, the 2014 lineup continues to successfully push musical diversity, slotting Kanye West — perhaps our generation’s most provocative mainstream artist — at the top of a bill also featuring aging soft-rock master Tom Petty, Dutch electronic musician Tiesto, and the arguably outdated arena-rock of The Killers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s the bottom half of the lineup that shines with a handful of strong local picks. I wager it’d be foolish to miss the irresistible tunes of Mikal Cronin, San Francisco’s reigning garage-rock king who shook the scene up with his 2013 release \u003cem>MCII\u003c/em>. Cronin should assuage any lingering doubts about the scene in San Francisco after the overwrought, media-sensationalized departures of John Dwyer (of Thee Oh Sees fame) and Ty Segall for Los Angeles. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, enigmatic musician and San Francisco resident \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/christopherowensonline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christopher Owens\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> — originally known for his lead role in the indie rock band Girls — will play his first major Bay Area gig in quite sometime after a prolonged hiatus following his early 2013 solo LP \u003cem>Lysandre\u003c/em>. A handful of local artists round out the bill, including indie darlings \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TRAILSANDWAYS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trails and Ways\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, ambient-rock groover \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/tychomusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tycho\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, and the ever-soulful Nicki Bluhm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that’s not even close to the end for large festivals this summer. Newcomers \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BottleRock Napa\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.firstcityfestival.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">First City Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> in Monterey are coming back. After a disastrous inaugural year in which the organizers were unable to pay back $2 million in debt, BottleRock 2.0 will rise again in late May with new management, new bands, and (I hope) a more comprehensive budget. Yes, the lineup still leans heavily on a head-scratching roster of popular ’90s artists (Sublime, Third Eye Blind, Barenaked Ladies, Smash Mouth). Nonetheless, BottleRock managed to book a few truly exciting acts — no nostalgia needed — like the aforementioned garage-rock titans Thee Oh Sees, who put on one of the sweatiest, most energetic live shows I’ve seen, and Austin-based psychedelic rockers \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theblackangels.tx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Black Angels\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Don’t sleep on the rustic and more relaxed First City Festival in August, which includes unlimited on-site carnival rides, big-time bookings — from the dour rock of \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thenationalofficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The National\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> (another all-time, spectacular live band) to SF favorites Geographer — and three stages of music awash in the cool ocean breezes of Monterey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taken altogether, this year’s Bay Area summer festival lineup is as dynamic as I’ve ever seen it. No matter your preference — big or small, day or night — there’s a festival somewhere that ought to suit your needs. There’s no debate that Outside Lands, First City Festival, and BottleRock cast large shadows. They’re established fun. But consider taking a chance on one of these risky, quirky little fests happening around the Bay and beyond, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by just how much they have to offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Text by Zack Frederick\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cu>\u003ca name=\"tracks\">\u003cstrong>Track Listing:\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/u>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/angelolsenmusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Angel Olsen\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Forgiven/Forgotten”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/allahlasmusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Allah-Las\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Every Girl”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ash-Reiter/207972495886912\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ash Reiter\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Little Sandy”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/wyeoak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wye Oak\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “The Tower”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/tychomusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tycho\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Awake”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theblackangels.tx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Black Angels\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Broken Soldier (Live at The Fillmore)”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Shannon-and-the-Clams/134248713268350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shannon & the Clams\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Into a Dream”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.indiepages.com/boyracer/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boyracer\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Passionflower”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/christopherowensonline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christopher Owens\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Here We Go Again (acoustic)”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thenationalofficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The National\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Sea of Love”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TRAILSANDWAYS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trails and Ways\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Lost”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/nickwaterhousemusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nick Waterhouse\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “This is a Game”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/DownAndOutlaws\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Down & Outlaws\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Backwards from the Dead\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/offband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OFF!\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Void You Out”\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\n",

While mega-festivals enjoy lucrative corporate sponsorships, ubiquitous press coverage, and huge budgets, small festivals are labors of love produced by Bay Area non-profits, artists, and bands.

A sweaty tribute to trashy (in the best way) power pop and garage rock organized by Total Trash Productions and Southern California music label Burger Records, the lineup includes Ronnie Spector (lead singer of the 1960s girl group The Ronettes), Oakland’s very own \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Shannon-and-the-Clams/134248713268350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shannon & the Clams\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, punk supergroup \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/offband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OFF!\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nature junkies can also head south to Big Sur to join the fifth annual \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.woodsist.com/news/woodsist-festival-big-sur-2014/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Woodsist Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> in Big Sur on August 4-5 for two days of acclaimed performers like \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/angelolsenmusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Angel Olsen\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> and an emphasis on wandering, nostalgic folk rock. Woodsist has been around long enough now that its reputation precedes it — tickets seemed to sell out almost immediately, as though Bay Area residents need another excuse to fall in love with Big Sur.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s good news for people who dig extravagant light shows, huge crowds, and world-famous bands too: big-budget festivals continued their expansion this summer in the Bay Area. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Approaching name recognition with the likes of internationally renowned festivals like Coachella, the multi-million dollar \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfoutsidelands.com/home/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Outside Lands\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> takes over Golden Gate Park again this August. Already sold-out, the 2014 lineup continues to successfully push musical diversity, slotting Kanye West — perhaps our generation’s most provocative mainstream artist — at the top of a bill also featuring aging soft-rock master Tom Petty, Dutch electronic musician Tiesto, and the arguably outdated arena-rock of The Killers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s the bottom half of the lineup that shines with a handful of strong local picks. I wager it’d be foolish to miss the irresistible tunes of Mikal Cronin, San Francisco’s reigning garage-rock king who shook the scene up with his 2013 release \u003cem>MCII\u003c/em>. Cronin should assuage any lingering doubts about the scene in San Francisco after the overwrought, media-sensationalized departures of John Dwyer (of Thee Oh Sees fame) and Ty Segall for Los Angeles. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, enigmatic musician and San Francisco resident \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/christopherowensonline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christopher Owens\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> — originally known for his lead role in the indie rock band Girls — will play his first major Bay Area gig in quite sometime after a prolonged hiatus following his early 2013 solo LP \u003cem>Lysandre\u003c/em>. A handful of local artists round out the bill, including indie darlings \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/TRAILSANDWAYS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trails and Ways\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, ambient-rock groover \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/tychomusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tycho\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, and the ever-soulful Nicki Bluhm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that’s not even close to the end for large festivals this summer. Newcomers \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BottleRock Napa\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.firstcityfestival.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">First City Festival\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> in Monterey are coming back. After a disastrous inaugural year in which the organizers were unable to pay back $2 million in debt, BottleRock 2.0 will rise again in late May with new management, new bands, and (I hope) a more comprehensive budget. Yes, the lineup still leans heavily on a head-scratching roster of popular ’90s artists (Sublime, Third Eye Blind, Barenaked Ladies, Smash Mouth). Nonetheless, BottleRock managed to book a few truly exciting acts — no nostalgia needed — like the aforementioned garage-rock titans Thee Oh Sees, who put on one of the sweatiest, most energetic live shows I’ve seen, and Austin-based psychedelic rockers \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theblackangels.tx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Black Angels\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Don’t sleep on the rustic and more relaxed First City Festival in August, which includes unlimited on-site carnival rides, big-time bookings — from the dour rock of \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thenationalofficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The National\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> (another all-time, spectacular live band) to SF favorites Geographer — and three stages of music awash in the cool ocean breezes of Monterey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taken altogether, this year’s Bay Area summer festival lineup is as dynamic as I’ve ever seen it. No matter your preference — big or small, day or night — there’s a festival somewhere that ought to suit your needs. There’s no debate that Outside Lands, First City Festival, and BottleRock cast large shadows. They’re established fun. But consider taking a chance on one of these risky, quirky little fests happening around the Bay and beyond, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by just how much they have to offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Text by Zack Frederick\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Doe Eye’s \u003cem>Television\u003c/em> is the first LP from Maryam Qudus and her band, and, on first listen, it’s a real winner. Embellishing Qudus’ singer-songwriter pop with impressive studio inventiveness, there’s a feeling of liberated creativity to the album that calls to mind the works of its producer, John Vanderslice. With respect to Papercuts’ \u003cem>Life Among the Savages\u003c/em>, it’s Jason Quever’s fifth full length, not his first, but it’s been a criminally long three years since his last record.

"content": "\u003caside class=\"aligncenter\">\n\u003ch4>Listen to the Bay Bridged mix of the latest crop of Bay Area punk, hardcore and post-punk bands, including: Never Young, Generation Loss, Hard Girls, Joyride!, Scalped, Male Gaze and more:\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>http://media.libsyn.com/media/thebaybridged/Punk_Mix_2014.mp3\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>In 2012, ancient by Internet standards, \u003ca href=\"http://thebaybridged.com/2012/10/17/mixtape-highlights-from-san-francisco-bay-area-punk-post-punk-and-hardcore-podcast-290/\">we showcased a mixtape of local punk, post-punk and hardcore bands\u003c/a> that featured terrific groups like Ceremony, Loma Prieta, Terry Malts, Wild Moth, and Synthetic ID. Since then, we’ve seen a number of promising new bands emerge — Scraper, Creative Adult, and others we’ve showcased on the podcast in the interim — but it felt like high time to do a deeper dive back into Bay Area punk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mix includes twenty-two Bay Area punk, post-punk and hardcore bands that we haven’t included in past podcast episodes. It’s a diverse and eclectic mix, from the poppy \u003ca href=\"http://joyride-sf.bandcamp.com\">Joyride!\u003c/a> to the searing \u003ca href=\"http://scalped415.bandcamp.com\">Scalped\u003c/a>, but it speaks to the continued vitality of local punk music. We didn’t originally intend for this mix to be this long; there’s just simply too much good stuff that’s been released in the past few years.

Since then, we’ve seen a number of promising new bands emerge — Scraper, Creative Adult, and others we’ve showcased on the podcast in the interim — but it felt like high time to do a deeper dive back into Bay Area punk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mix includes twenty-two Bay Area punk, post-punk and hardcore bands that we haven’t included in past podcast episodes. It’s a diverse and eclectic mix, from the poppy \u003ca href=\"http://joyride-sf.bandcamp.com\">Joyride!\u003c/a> to the searing \u003ca href=\"http://scalped415.bandcamp.com\">Scalped\u003c/a>, but it speaks to the continued vitality of local punk music. We didn’t originally intend for this mix to be this long; there’s just simply too much good stuff that’s been released in the past few years. Besides, it’s still under an hour — thank you, punk brevity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of special note: we’ve included a new song from \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Hard-Girls/204783296927\">Hard Girls\u003c/a>‘ forthcoming album, \u003cem>A Thousand Surfaces\u003c/em>, which arrives later this year on Asian Man Records.

One of those shows features \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Blood-Orange/141094315950968\">Blood Orange\u003c/a>, the latest project of Devonté Hynes. As a writer/producer, Hynes has worked with the likes of Sky Ferriera and Solange Knowles, and his acclaimed 2013 LP \u003cem>Cupid Deluxe\u003c/em> is an enchanting and incredibly varied collection of weird pop songs. Also on the sold-out front: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Future-Islands/161555136568\">Future Islands\u003c/a>. As we mentioned in \u003ca href=\"http://thebaybridged.com/2014/03/18/mixtape-highlights-south-by-southwest-2014/\">our SXSW mixtape\u003c/a>, the band was one of our Austin highlights, and the opportunity to see them at The Chapel is simply too good to miss. The song we’ve included here comes from \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em>, the group’s latest collection of emotionally charged electronic pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As this mix shows, though, there are also plenty of great shows this month that aren’t sold out! On the local front, it’s been about two-and-a-half years since SF surf-pop band \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theshesmusic\">The She’s\u003c/a> released their first full length, which makes the new \u003cem>Dreamers\u003c/em> EP both anticipated and overdue. The band’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.rickshawstop.com/event/535909-tv-girl-shes-ep-release-san-francisco/\">record release party\u003c/a> is a four-band affair, and you should get there early to see Bay Bridged favorites Cocktails. \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/burntones\">Burnt Ones\u003c/a> are also releasing a new album this month. Castle Face Records promises that \u003cem>Gift\u003c/em> is the most psychedelic record yet from this SF band, and the song we’ve included, “Spell Breakers,” offers a hazy, sound collage-informed take on garage rock stomp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enjoy the podcast and then go see some concerts!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">About the bands:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://newbums.tumblr.com/\">New Bums\u003c/a> — “Black Bough”\u003cbr>\nPerforming on April 13 at \u003ca href=\"http://www.thechapelsf.com/\">The Chapel.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Blood-Orange/141094315950968\">Blood Orange\u003c/a> — “You’re Not Good Enough”\u003cbr>\nDevonte Hynes’s Blood Orange performs at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.slimspresents.com/\">Great American Music Hall\u003c/a> on April 15.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/templesofficial\">Temples\u003c/a> — “Shelter Song”\u003cbr>\nOn April 14, Temples join Drowners and DJ Omar Perez at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.slimspresents.com/\">Great American Music Hall\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/burntones\">Burnt Ones\u003c/a> — “Spell Breakers”\u003cbr>\nBringing the new \u003cem>Gift\u003c/em> LP to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.brickandmortarmusic.com/\">Brick & Mortar Music Hall\u003c/a>; Useless Eaters, Violent Change, Al Lover and DJ William Keihn join the band on April 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/maxportermusic\">M.

One of those shows features \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Blood-Orange/141094315950968\">Blood Orange\u003c/a>, the latest project of Devonté Hynes. As a writer/producer, Hynes has worked with the likes of Sky Ferriera and Solange Knowles, and his acclaimed 2013 LP \u003cem>Cupid Deluxe\u003c/em> is an enchanting and incredibly varied collection of weird pop songs. Also on the sold-out front: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Future-Islands/161555136568\">Future Islands\u003c/a>. As we mentioned in \u003ca href=\"http://thebaybridged.com/2014/03/18/mixtape-highlights-south-by-southwest-2014/\">our SXSW mixtape\u003c/a>, the band was one of our Austin highlights, and the opportunity to see them at The Chapel is simply too good to miss. The song we’ve included here comes from \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em>, the group’s latest collection of emotionally charged electronic pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As this mix shows, though, there are also plenty of great shows this month that aren’t sold out! On the local front, it’s been about two-and-a-half years since SF surf-pop band \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theshesmusic\">The She’s\u003c/a> released their first full length, which makes the new \u003cem>Dreamers\u003c/em> EP both anticipated and overdue. The band’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.rickshawstop.com/event/535909-tv-girl-shes-ep-release-san-francisco/\">record release party\u003c/a> is a four-band affair, and you should get there early to see Bay Bridged favorites Cocktails. \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/burntones\">Burnt Ones\u003c/a> are also releasing a new album this month. Castle Face Records promises that \u003cem>Gift\u003c/em> is the most psychedelic record yet from this SF band, and the song we’ve included, “Spell Breakers,” offers a hazy, sound collage-informed take on garage rock stomp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enjoy the podcast and then go see some concerts!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\">About the bands:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://newbums.tumblr.com/\">New Bums\u003c/a> — “Black Bough”\u003cbr>\nPerforming on April 13 at \u003ca href=\"http://www.thechapelsf.com/\">The Chapel.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Some might find the prospect of seeing music at every waking hour exhausting, but there’s something surprisingly energizing about the mass convergence of creative talent in Austin each year. SXSW remains one of the best places to discover new bands, a remarkable, unique opportunity to watch, discover, be disappointed by, and celebrate a ton of indie music’s most buzzed-about (and completely unknown) artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It cannot be easy to be a band at SXSW. Best case scenario, a group is playing a dozen or more shows over the course of the week, frequently under less than optimal conditions, without adequate sound checks, and to audiences that are somewhere between hungover and drunk and always distracted by their phones. It’s unreasonable to expect too much from a SXSW performer, which makes it a welcome surprise when a band rises above “just okay” and blows you away. Plenty of bands did impress us over our four days in Austin, and we’ve collected a dozen highlights in this mixtape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, it’s not possible to reflect on this year’s South By festivities without acknowledging Wednesday night’s tragedy, when a drunk driver broke through barricades on Red River Street, hitting and killing two people — a third passed away from her injuries on Monday — and injuring twenty-two others outside the Mohawk. It was strange to be at the Mohawk, one of Austin’s best venues, on Friday, seeing a schedule of set times from Wednesday night still taped to one of the bar’s cash registers. While the tragedy made the whole let’s-see-a-ton-of-bands thing feel even more shallow than normal, there was ultimately inspiration and relief to be found in the music, a much-needed reminder of the medium’s very fundamental importance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below, find out a little bit more about each of our South by Southwest standouts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/witheredhand\">Withered Hand\u003c/a> — “Black Tambourine”\u003cbr>\nDan Willson’s work as Withered Hand mixes folk rock and indie pop, with songs that sound great but are elevated even higher by heartfelt, compelling lyricism. \u003cem>New Gods\u003c/em> is being released in the US by Slumberland Records, which should be recommendation enough, but the album’s list of guest performers — Pam Berry of Black Tambourine, Eugene Kelly of The Vaselines, members of Belle & Sebastian and Frightened Rabbit — also says volumes about Willson’s remarkable talent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/EX-HEX/174274669425857\">Ex Hex\u003c/a> — “Hot and Cold”\u003cbr>\nMary Timony’s resume speaks for itself — with successful turns in Helium and Wild Flag and as a solo artist — and Ex Hex continues that impressive run. The DC trio’s throwback glam pop stood out both times we saw them; it’s no surprise that Merge scooped them up for a debut album later this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MasYsa\">Mas Ysa\u003c/a> — “Why”\u003cbr>\nThomas Arsenault cannot be accused of sleepwalking through his live appearances as Mas Ysa. Surrounded by electronic hardware in his Mohawk set on Friday, Arsenault furiously pressed buttons and adjusted settings, periodically stopping to sing into the microphone that was otherwise draped around his neck. That energy paid off, adding another layer of intensity to his already emotionally-charged and immaculately crafted electronic pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/jungle4eva\">Jungle\u003c/a> — “Lucky I Got What I Want”\u003cbr>\nSeeing Jungle twice in one day was perhaps the best decision we made at South By last week. The funky pop songs coming from the UK septet felt a little too mellow and ethereal from a balcony vantage point at the Mohawk, but the band was absolutely commanding later that night at the Hype Hotel. For a group that clearly cares about sonic precision — how often do you see singers using windscreens in live shows? — that second set was fully immersive and stunning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/quiltmusic\">Quilt\u003c/a> — “Tie up the Tides”\u003cbr>\nQuilt’s performance at SXSW on Saturday at Red 7 was a welcome respite from the rain outside, with majestic vocal harmonies and textured psych that was alternately pastoral and rocking. It was gorgeous-sounding stuff that begs one to revisit this year’s \u003cem>Held in Splendor\u003c/em>, out on Mexican Summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/protomartyr\">Protomartyr\u003c/a> — “Scum, Rise!”\u003cbr>\nProtomartyr was the first band we saw at South by Southwest, and their inclusion here should speak to the big impression they made at Pitchfork’s French Legation Museum day party. The Detroit band tonally lands somewhere between punk’s sneering urgency and post-punk’s despondent brooding, but with songs that carry a surprising amount of melody. \u003cem>Under Color of Official Right\u003c/em>, the group’s second album, arrives in April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/wearebigups\">Big Ups\u003c/a> — “Goes Black”\u003cbr>\nBrooklyn’s Big Ups periodically feel like a throwback to ’80s punk and post-punk bands, although it never feels like they’re merely aping any one band in particular. It’s an impressive feat that’s notable mostly in an academic context; live, the only priority is moving along to the group’s intense, blunt songs, recently captured on the \u003cem>Eighteen Hours of Static\u003c/em> LP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/deadgaze\">Dead Gaze\u003c/a> — “Rowdy Jungle”\u003cbr>\nWho knew that some of the best power pop around was coming from Mississippi? Cole Furlow’s Dead Gaze started as a lower fidelity solo project, but his five-piece band wasn’t hiding any of its big hooks at Holy Mountain last Thursday. The group drew from \u003cem>Brain Holiday\u003c/em>, a big, anthem-packed record that flew far too under the radar last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/SylvanEsso\">Sylvan Esso\u003c/a> — “Hey Mami”\u003cbr>\nLive sets by electronic pop artists often feel more like tenuous attempts to replicate studio productions than real concerts. Fortunately, North Carolina duo Sylvan Esso impressed us with more energy and charisma than scores of rock bands. Their self-titled debut LP arrives in May, and a recently announced set of dates with tUnE-yArDs sounds like a can’t-miss pairing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Future-Islands/161555136568\">Future Islands\u003c/a> — “Cotton Flower”\u003cbr>\nFuture Islands had already built a strong cult following over the years, before the band went viral with an appearance on \u003cem>The Late Show with David Letterman\u003c/em> in support of \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em>. Samuel Herring is compelling as both a crooner and a growler, and the band’s moody, intense songs are incredibly catchy; early reviews of \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em> suggest that the new LP will elevate the band into the stratosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/tonymolina650\">Tony Molina\u003c/a> — “Change My Ways”\u003cbr>\nSF’s Tony Molina and his band powered through a blistering set at Maggie Mae’s on Wednesday night, sparing nary a second in a run of heavy, brief pop anthems from the recently-reissued and thoroughly terrific \u003cem>Dissed and Dismissed\u003c/em>, out now on Slumberland Records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Guerilla-Toss/294357483907927\">Guerilla Toss\u003c/a> — “Trash Bed”\u003cbr>\nFrenetic barely begins to describe Boston’s Guerilla Toss, who performed to and among an energized crowd at the Longbranch Inn on Friday night. The band makes a hell of a noisy racket, abrasive and funky in the vein of no wave, with a propulsive and headstrong drive.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It was gorgeous-sounding stuff that begs one to revisit this year’s \u003cem>Held in Splendor\u003c/em>, out on Mexican Summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/protomartyr\">Protomartyr\u003c/a> — “Scum, Rise!”\u003cbr>\nProtomartyr was the first band we saw at South by Southwest, and their inclusion here should speak to the big impression they made at Pitchfork’s French Legation Museum day party. The Detroit band tonally lands somewhere between punk’s sneering urgency and post-punk’s despondent brooding, but with songs that carry a surprising amount of melody. \u003cem>Under Color of Official Right\u003c/em>, the group’s second album, arrives in April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/wearebigups\">Big Ups\u003c/a> — “Goes Black”\u003cbr>\nBrooklyn’s Big Ups periodically feel like a throwback to ’80s punk and post-punk bands, although it never feels like they’re merely aping any one band in particular. It’s an impressive feat that’s notable mostly in an academic context; live, the only priority is moving along to the group’s intense, blunt songs, recently captured on the \u003cem>Eighteen Hours of Static\u003c/em> LP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/deadgaze\">Dead Gaze\u003c/a> — “Rowdy Jungle”\u003cbr>\nWho knew that some of the best power pop around was coming from Mississippi? Cole Furlow’s Dead Gaze started as a lower fidelity solo project, but his five-piece band wasn’t hiding any of its big hooks at Holy Mountain last Thursday. The group drew from \u003cem>Brain Holiday\u003c/em>, a big, anthem-packed record that flew far too under the radar last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/SylvanEsso\">Sylvan Esso\u003c/a> — “Hey Mami”\u003cbr>\nLive sets by electronic pop artists often feel more like tenuous attempts to replicate studio productions than real concerts. Fortunately, North Carolina duo Sylvan Esso impressed us with more energy and charisma than scores of rock bands. Their self-titled debut LP arrives in May, and a recently announced set of dates with tUnE-yArDs sounds like a can’t-miss pairing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Future-Islands/161555136568\">Future Islands\u003c/a> — “Cotton Flower”\u003cbr>\nFuture Islands had already built a strong cult following over the years, before the band went viral with an appearance on \u003cem>The Late Show with David Letterman\u003c/em> in support of \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em>. Samuel Herring is compelling as both a crooner and a growler, and the band’s moody, intense songs are incredibly catchy; early reviews of \u003cem>Singles\u003c/em> suggest that the new LP will elevate the band into the stratosphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/tonymolina650\">Tony Molina\u003c/a> — “Change My Ways”\u003cbr>\nSF’s Tony Molina and his band powered through a blistering set at Maggie Mae’s on Wednesday night, sparing nary a second in a run of heavy, brief pop anthems from the recently-reissued and thoroughly terrific \u003cem>Dissed and Dismissed\u003c/em>, out now on Slumberland Records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The band makes a hell of a noisy racket, abrasive and funky in the vein of no wave, with a propulsive and headstrong drive.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
