MAIN ATTRAKIONZ + DARK SISTER @ PROUD LARRY'S 3/8/12

Prolific Oakland, CA "cloud rap" duo MAIN ATTRAKIONZ will bring their hazed out party jams to Proud Larry's this Thursday 3/8/12, and we're insanely excited about it.  Squadda Bambino and Mondre M.A.N. have made huge waves with their non-stop output of tunes showcasing murky, lo-fi beats with stoned, off-the-cuff raps about life in the Bay Area.

Opening the show is Memphis, TN's DARK SISTER.  Tickets are available HERE.  Stream "808s & Dark Grapes II," the excellent (and free) MAIN ATTRAKIONZ album which features collaborations with Clams Casino and ASAP Rocky, right here:

GRIMES + BORN GOLD @ CATS PURRING DUDE RANCH 3/3/12

We're honored to be presenting two strikingly original and thrilling acts at the Cats Purring Dude Ranch this Saturday 3/3/12.  GRIMES is the highly acclaimed and inventive electronic pop project of Montreal's Claire Boucher.  Her brilliant new album VISIONS is out now on 4AD.  (We strongly encourage you pick it up from that new record store that's opening in town.)

Openers BORN GOLD have been to Oxford, MS twice under their previous moniker Gobble Gobble.  If you were at either of those shows, you're aware of the high energy synth blasts, blissful pop hooks, and kaleidoscopic theatrics these dudes bring with them everywhere they go.

Doors are at 10pm, and bands start at 11pm sharp.  Cover charge is $7.  BYOB.  This venue is our home, so please be respectful of our space and our neighbors.  We absolutely do not tolerate drinking & driving to and from our parties.  We always have taxi info on hand.  This show is going to be epic, so don't say we didn't warn you. See y'all Saturday!

GRIMES - "GENESIS"
BORN GOLD - "ALABASTER BODYWORLDS"
