What do you get when you mix crime fighting with Brazilian bossa nova/soul/surf? Something as strangely wonderful as Chicano Batman. This L.A. based indie band will be bringing their unique brand of chicano rock to Lost Leaf on Friday, October 19, with their latest EP Joven Navegante.
It’s free, so don’t miss it.
In other just announced news: Despite that annoying “I Love College” song, whiteboy rapper Asher Roth has skills. Asleep in the Bread Aisle was catchy, if not downright awesome. He’s gone on to sign with Def Jam and collaborated with some of the best in the biz. Roth is supposed to drop his second studio album this year, titled Is This Too Orange. Well, for now you’ll just have to enjoy his live show when he hits Club Red on Sunday, November 4. No doubt Roth will pack em to the rafters, so get there early.
