The Buzz Bands LA Show tonight celebrates its anniversary with some selections from our 15 years on 88.5 FM.
Buzz Bands LA is taking a break. Our editor will still be curating semi-regular playlists, information about which will appear here.
Indie-rock quartet Chalk Talk has released the brash new single “The Idiot” ahead of their winter-break tour, which starts tonight with a show at Genghis Cohen.
Long-distance collaborators Travis Trevisan and Christina Hernandez will release “Here We Lie,” their debut album as Slow Salvation, on Aug. 25. File under: dream-pop splendor (and mastered by Simon Scott of Slowdive).

In advance of Friday’s appearance at Substance 2022, the Jesus and Mary Chain’s Jim Reid talks about COVID, his long-running battle with stage fright, being a latecomer to jazz, getting along with his brother and what the future might hold. In the works: a book, a documentary and a new album.
Bram Inscore, the songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist who bootstrapped his way through the L.A. scene and became a collaborator with A-list artists, has died at age 41. He “had the magic touch,” friends and fellow musicians agree.
