From the Mailbag: Elle Niño, Sassy!!!, Microfiche
June 17, 2011
We get more submissions than we can handle here at TBB, so periodically we’ll dip into the mailbag and check out a bunch of songs we’ve recently received. As always, feel free to let us know your thoughts in the comments.
A recent reader e-mail about how great Elle Niño is reminded me that we’ve been meaning to post something from the band’s EP for a while now. The local electro-synth-pop band will be performing at the Hemlock Tavern on Sunday, June 19th (9pm, $6), with Spacehunter and Fa Fa Fa.
Diggin’ Deep is the latest album from local garage/power-pop duo Sassy!!!. The band, who recently spoke to the Weekly about “How to Be a Garage-Rock Goddess,” is giving away their latest single, “So Bad It’s Good.”
SF instrumental rock band Microfiche is celebrating the release of their debut EP, Jetpacks and Laser Beams, on Saturday at Sub-Mission (8pm). The EP was recorded and mixed by Phil Manley, and you can listen to it below.
Man, these Microfiche guys rock the house. Definitely going to check that out on Saturday and get some tasty vinyl.
Yes, love Elle Nino and Microfiche!! Elle Nino puts on an AWESOME show too – love their coordinated dance moves and awesome dance music.
Elle Niño!!! If SF music lovers have not yet got into this band, they better get prepared. Their live shows are sick! Everyone should come to Hemlock on Sunday.
