Don't forget to join us this Tuesday for a night of music and conversation. Alejandro Cohen, a member of the band Languis and a "labrat" with Dublab, will lead a jingle-jangle excavation of a lost 80s moment in LA music.
The Paisley Underground is the fourth Listening Party in a series of wide-ranging discussions about urban space and music curated by Josh Kun. LACE Listening Parties are inspired by the current explosion of mp3 players, podcasts and other mobile media used to score the soundtrack of everyday life. Each Party features a special guest critic, musician and/or curator who shares favorite recordings - from popular anthems to found sounds and new material.
