SUMMARY:Labit - SOL Album Release Show
DESCRIPTION:My sophomore album\, SOL\, is finally out. I held this project close to my heart all year\, and now it’s finally yours.\n\n\n…\n\n\nI don’t even know where to start.\n\n\nI wrote this album as my self-discovery journal over the last few years as I navigated through relationships\, adulthood\, and trying to make a living in a way too expensive city. The through line for me has always been how I approach the highs and lows. That approach is largely because of how my grandma\, Solita (Sol for short)\, and how the rest of my family\, raised me.\n\n\nI named the album after my Grandma Sol because I realized how much she taught me growing up. Her lessons are littered throughout the album\, some more apparent than others. She taught me patience\, how to see both sides\, and how to lead with love. There was nothing better than hanging out at her apartment after school and just talking to her. Listening to her brother’s tape of him playing classical guitar and hearing how much she loved hearing him play. I won’t ever know what she thinks of this project\, but hopefully she thinks it’s slaps lol.\n\n\nNow\, this album is all yours. I hope you find what you’re looking for listening to these songs \n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/labitmusic/

SUMMARY:An Evening with The Beta Band
DESCRIPTION:The Beta Band\, as everyone knows\, is an institution\, like Arkham\, or the Brooklyn Zoo\, and as such has its own indelible stain on the bedsheet of Western culture. It was the great Mr Rogers who said “you have to shake it out at least once every couple of decades\, if you want to know what the moths did”. So with both of those facts in mind\, we realise the time has come to show the wall the Luminol\, kill the lights and hit the UV.
