SUMMARY:Bright Light Social Hour w/Choses Sauvages (From Montreal)
DESCRIPTION:Fun rock show! Conjuring a bold new version of psychedelia informed by hard rock\, R&B\, electronica\, and pop\, this is their first stop in Morro Bay. \nAustin-based indie psychedelic band The Bright Light Social Hour kick off spring \nwith new single “Not New” announced alongside news of tour dates and a new \nalbum\, Emergency Leisure\, coming August 2 via Escondido Sound. Founded by \nJackie O’Brien (bass/vocals) and Curtis Roush (guitar/vocals) – and newly joined \nby Mia Carruthers (keys/vocals)\, Zac Catanzaro (drums) and Juan Alfredo Ríos \n(percussion) – the band’s latest single showcases the sound of the forthcoming \nproject\, melding Texas trippiness with irresistible disco-punk groove. There’s an \nequally lysergic music video accompanying the track\, in vintage Bright Light Social \nHour style. \n“In 2019 we did a tour we didn’t realize would be our last. At least for TBLSH as \nwe knew it. Emergency Leisure is a fictional autobiography from this period\, \ncentered on a seminal\, hedonistic night at Bar L’Escogriffe in Montreal – our own \nTropic of Cancer of sorts. “Not New” kicks off the odyssey\, a new beginning in our \nFool’s Journey. ” –Jackie O’Brien \nThe band’s sound is iconoclastic and ever-evolving\, with four studio albums to \ndate including the critically acclaimed Space Is Still the Place and Jude I & II. In \naddition to composing original soundtracks for HBO\, MTV\, and Nintendo\, they also \nwrote and recorded the award-winning theme for Amazon’s “Sneaky Pete” at the \nrequest of Bryan Cranston. The band is widely known for their explosive live \nperformances\, including festivals such as Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza\, as \nwell as opening for Aerosmith\, Osees\, and The Flaming Lips. Their inventive \nsound has garnered critical acclaim with support from the likes of CLASH\, NPR\, \nThe Wild Honey Pie\, Earmilk and plenty more. \n\nThe new single showcases a band reaching peak song-writing prowess\, a tight yet \nbewildering journey with groove-rich drums\, psychedelic synths and a dirty \ndancefloor payoff that would make Nile Rodgers blush. With further singles\, a new \nalbum\, and much touring on the horizon\, 2023 is looking like an incredible year for \nthe Austin-based outfit. \n“‘Not New’ is a late night smoldering in a Québécois alley punctuated by three-part \nharmony\, dusty driving drums\, fat Mustang bass\, glitter and congas. It’s our first \nsingle as a renewed band in advance of our fifth album\, a homespun moody after \nhours soundtrack to strange times called Emergency Leisure.” –Curtis Roush \n“Transportive… like you’re floating off to a galaxy far\, far away.” – Vice \n“Surreal\, dreamlike… take me right to bed vocals.” — The Denver Post \n“A lush\, space-western odyssey.” – Consequence of Sound \n“A touch of grunge\, a little grime\, and lots of spacey\, psychedelic mind-melting \nsounds.” — Leafly
