Oh, the algorithms' mysterious ways... Well, sometimes there's a Hallelujah when you find new music that seemed was tailored for you. That's happened to me when I crossed paths with Giant Killer Bats on Spotify. I used to feel I was stuck in my musical bubble, Spotify feeding me with the same music I've been listening to since 2003. But ever since we started this podcast and were forced away from our comfort zone to look for new acts, Spotify seemly understood I was in for discovering new musical territories and it has sent my way a couple of treasures. One of my favorites this year is McCoy's solo project and particularly his eponymous EP. It reminds me of a time (around 2003... don't laugh) when pop melodies, grunge and, DIY gave birth to a new wave of fragile yet shinny songwriters. Giant Killer Bats is out on Terrible Records, and we can't wait for you to discover it.
Together, we're starting a conversation about saving Rock N' Roll in the City of Angels. Casually talking from the Sunset Strip, we are launching a movement with our collective called Team Nowhere and we are calling artists & fans to unite. If you are in a band, or if you're a photographer, a developer, a hairstylist, whatever your craft... In other words, if you really want to help to put Rock music back on the map for the ten upcoming years... well let's build a community together, and let's plan concrete actions to make a positive shift in our industry. Rock isn't dead, the Sunset strip isn't dead. But only if we want it! #Teamnowhere #Hangingonsunset @team_nowhere @hangingonsunset @nowhere_team_us
