Their self-titled debut has already been labeled, “…an instant classic” by fans like Grant Lee Phillips, Margaret Cho, and Mark Flanagan, owner of the Legendary Largo-Los Angeles who discovered them. The adventurous, genre-bending five piece ensemble is heralded as one of Los Angeles’ trending breakthrough bands. Critics seeking to capture the vibe, have described the Memoir as, “Adele meets The Black Keys” and “…Fiona Apple meets the Killers with a dash of The Clash“, but they remain defiantly singular, cinematic, and absolutely unforgettable after you’ve seen them live. www.magnoliamemoir.com Follow them @MagnoliaMemoir
Los Angeles based rock group THE JANKS, fronted by brothers Zachary and Dylan Zmed along with rhythm section Nate Light and Leon LeDoux, make it their mission to produce music in the same way they live their lives; with both sincerity and irreverence. The Janks create a sound that combines the traditional two-part vocal harmony of The Everly Brothers with the adept musicianship and blues-rock stylings of Led Zeppelin -- all with a heavy dose of humorous abandon a la Ween. They have logged over 500 live appearances at venues including The Troubadour, House of Blues, The Echo, and The Echoplex, and have held residencies at two of Los Angeles’ most touted indie rock clubs, The Satellite and the Bootleg Theater. www.thejanks.com Tweet @thejanks
If certain things are said to be timeless, pure talent is definitely one of them. Lydia René is soul music's answer to that intangible quality that consistently moves audiences across generations. The sultry articulation of her vocals draw listeners to her music, while her frank songwriting adds honesty and wit to her relatable messages.
To say it plainly, it is bold musicality that sets Lydia René apart from the pack. A classically trained pianist and accomplished musician, Lydia René’s sound is best described as smooth out-of-the box soul. Puckered with sonic surprises, it is infused with jazz riffs and alternative stylings that help take the listener to a higher musical plateau than that of the norm. Lydia René’s eclectic influences and free spirited musicianship culminated in her first release My Love IS My Life, recorded live in 2008. @lydia_rene www.lydiarene.com
LA Based rapper and producer Quinn presents his debut album "No Time Wasted" this past October. The album's producers include himself, Chris Paul, Shepard, and the Teamsterz with beats that exemplify "laid back" hip hop. Lyrically, Quinn give just as much thought and care to what he's saying as the care that has taken in the beats he's wrapping over. Quinn's rhymes are real and relatable- no fronting or embellishing.
