San Diego Shows–Monday, April 13
PLAN A: Sholi, Odawas @ Bar Pink. Sure, you could compare San Francisco’s Sholi to about a dozen other neo-psychedelic bands, but when The Irish Times says your album sounds like the “opportunities missed by Coldplay in their recent Brian Eno collaboration,” then you know you’re doing something right. PLAN B: Hjertestop, OK, Cold Stare @ Che Café. Hjertestop are the shape of punk to come from Denmark: Loud. Fast. In your face. BACKUP PLAN: TheNewNo2,The Illuminauts @ The Casbah.
Sholi does a mean Joanna Newsom cover:
