The Rumble pt.1

September 7th, 2009

If you live in LA and you’re a fan of live music, you owe it to yourself to get your ass over to the Three Clubs in Hollywood for The Rumble.  Normally on the first Thursday of every month, The Rumble is a Future Sounds showcase of three new bands that you might not know of…yet.  Future Sounds’ CEO, Larry Little (apart from being a good friend and a great guy) really knows how to pick ‘em when it comes to the indie rock scene.  Larry has turned me on to countless amazing bands, many of which have gone on to become “house-hold” names.  Because of Larry though, I heard them months before most.

Due to the Labor Day holiday, this month’s Rumble has been pushed a week to this Thursday (the 10th), and all week, I’ll be posting pics from Rumbles past.  And by the way, if you don’t live in LA, don’t fret – there’s a good chance a Rumble’s already brewing in your neck of the woods.  They’ve sprung up in San Francisco, Brooklyn & Seattle, just to name a few, and there’s plans in the works to bring the gig to Austin & Chicago soon.

The above shot is of the Band of Skulls, London’s three-piece answer to The White Stripes.  These Brits tore the walls down of the tiny club back in June, and if you haven’t heard of the band yet, I’m guessing you’ll know them well soon.
