i was there || hinds

Show: Hinds
Public Access TV

Location: Lincoln Hall

Date: 10.22.15

Favorite Song: I'm admittedly not super close to all of their songs but I think "Bamboo" would have to be my favorite from the night.

Memorable Moment: They made it clear early in the night that they had been on tour for a while now + wanted to party in Chicago. They then proceeded to take shots on stage + piss off Lincoln Hall a bit by inviting the audience onto stage for the final song. I hope Chicago treated them well for the rest of the night.

Biggest Letdown: I really wish I had asked everyone in the crowd who their favorite Hinds girl was. I think that could tell a lot about a person. My favorite was the bass player.

This Show: was comprised of four Spanish girls playing instruments on stage, so there's not much to dislike about that. They were super cute + having a lot of fun on stage which translated to lots of fun in the crowd. I don't think I'll listen to their album a ton on my own but I still enjoyed it.

luh || unites

A few weeks back Spotify Radio introduced me to this really great band called WU LYF. After about 5 or so listens of their album I was sufficiently impressed + did a little more research on the group. What I found was a bit heartbreaking -- they had been broken up for years. The worst.

I can't help but feel like the music gods are on my side though. Recently I have seen news of their reincarnation of sorts called LUH which seems to be just as good. Check them both out.
