Glasgow, Sun Hotel, We Landed on the Moon & Elsinore

Glasgow, veterans of the Nola music terrain, will be releasing their brand new EP 1986 in digital format this Saturday, February 20th. They will be celebrating the occasion with some great friends at One Eyed Jacks. Follow their countdown at their blog here.

Baton Rouge starlets, We Landed on the Moon will be helping to ring in the joyous event. Their touring partners Elsinore, a wonder pop quintet hailing from Champaign-Urbana, IL, will be following one of the coolest young bands in Nola.

Sun Hotel opens the show fresh off of their own EP release, Team Spirit. Download it for free from their bandcamp page.

Krewe du Vieux + La Maison

Jean-Eric

The Krewe du Vieux after-show at La Maison was a pretty special event this year. Park the Van Records planned an awesome showcase with Caddywhompus, The Bellys, Giant Cloud, and Jean-Eric. The highlight of the night was the impromptu march through the venue by the Noicisian Coalition and the Camel Toe Lady Steppers. Gotta love Carnival!

Jean-Eric was a special treat, pretty much reminded me of a band that Punky Brewster would put together. ( = Awesome.)

Here's a video treat of Jean-Eric...

Sun Hotel releases EP

I fell in love with these guys during our last Noir Collective project where we helped combine local music with the film project, 50 People 1 Question. They've just released their latest EP, Team Spirit, and you've got to check out the song Swamp Thing.

This is a pretty young band in New Orleans, but is a combination of some pretty impressive players. You'll find the Caddywhompus kids and Gamma Ringo kids among the bunch .... check it out.
