BRAZILIAN GIRLS / TUESDAY'S RECOMMENDATIONS...

If you were combing the Concert Blast or just happened to be in the know, you may have realized that Brazilian Girls were tearing up the Avalon last night. The trio hailing from New York (who perform as a quartet) put together a tight knit show, featuring some great visuals, a scantily clad Sabina Sciubba and some excellent drumming and keys.

The highlight for me was probably "Good Time"; Sabina looked beautiful in her La Perla-ish full body lingerie with her heart shaped cut-out on her chest and booty. Bouncing around stage and flirtatiously playing with the crowd, she made me feel really charmed just standing there. The eclectically mixed crowd got down - despite being a mix of those who knew BG music and those that didn't know it so well.

I unfortunately had to cut out a little early to make it over to Hunnypot - which was still popping well after the radio show was over. I heard from a bird that Old Californio put on a solid performance in the Hot Tub - so check them out here. That bird was Rob Weldon, manager of the rising (and fucking incredibly amazing) band Stone Foxes. You may have heard the Foxes song "Beneath Mt. Sinai" on Sons of Anarchy recently - and expect to be hearing more music from them soon as they will be in Los Angeles in late November for performances at both The Viper Room (11/19) and The Mint (11/21).

That about wraps up Monday - so lets take a look at what is going on in Los Angeles today.....

As usual, DIMMAK Tuesdays will be popping off at Cinespace with Dan Oh and Them Jeans with special guests for the night El Ten Eleven; Noah & The Whale will be melancholy grooving at The Roxy; Brother Ali will be exhibiting his dynamic lyrical abilities and exceptional stage presence at El Rey along with Evidence, BK One and Toki Wright; Grizzly Bear will be delivering a healthy dosage of the hippest indie music at Hollywood Palladium and Owl City will be making heads spin at their sold out Troubadour show.

If you want to check out something else, peep the below listing for who is playing where on Tuesday October 20th.
