Billy Gottlieb, Walla and a Burlesque Show!!! 2/23/2015
Billy Gottlieb
The mind behind Playback Music Supervision needs no introduction for many who are keen to his craft, but for those of you who don't know Billy Gottlieb, allow us to catch you up on his work: Pulp Fiction, Bring It On, The Basketball Diaries, and many others exemplify the versatility necessary to become one of the most active music supervisors in the world, which our man Billy most certainly is. Though 2015 may be very, very young, Billy G has the distinction of already having 4 television series set to air in the new year - all of which feature drastically different musical styles. We're shocked and flattered that he's taken the time out of his busy schedule to spin some of his favorite tunes with us, and you should be too.

WALLA
WALLA formed out of different times, places, and hardships. By random chance, these 5 individuals found each other through digital means and a common love for inventing new wavelengths. The sound reflected confusion and hopelessness during a time of tough life decisions and rough financial circumstances. But through sheer perseverance and the culmination of different influences (everything from pop, funk, samba, rock, metal, folk, disco, and neo-psychedelia) WALLA quickly made an indestructible pact to maintain strong melodies and lyrics, putting above and beyond care and effort into each decibel of sound produced (almost to the point of neuroticism), and allowing each song to breathe its own life and soul. "We loved the idea of not knowing what type of song we would come up with next." Follow @TheWallaBand
