Radio Free Silverlake returns Tuesday (July 15th) with Let's Independent! (ft. The Black Pine, The Black Kites, EXITMUSIC)


Radio Free Silverlake is back with its monthly indie pop rock music extravaganza: Let's Independent! The monthly showcase (at Boardner's in Hollywood) is celebration of local independent music and always brings together a fabulously festive (and aurally obsessed) group of people for a night of bells and amps on-tap. 

Actually, I think RFS sums up the evening best by writing, "It's a goddamn party that celebrates just how fantastic the LA music scene is..." 

word! 
details...
Tuesday night is your first chance to see the sweetly dark pop act The Black Pine in over a year AND they're debuting new material from their upcoming album.

Combine that with shoegazey openers The Black Kites and EXITMUSIC and you've a strong contender for the best show in town.

Read all the details and hear exclusive MP3s right here
Boardner's is located at 1652 North Cherokee Ave ... a half block south of Hollywood Blvd in Hollywood ... a scenic spot that has been around since the 40s, can be seen such films as Ed Wood, Wag the Dog, LA Confidential, and Leaving Las Vegas, and -- really, I would not kid with you about this -- Guns N Roses trashed the bathroom once. (It' s like, history, you're soaking in it or something.)

btw... a sidenote. 

Am I the only one that's noticed the great number of amazing bands with the prefix "The Black ...?" -->  we have the Black Keys, the Black Ghosts, the Black Heart Procession, the Black Angels, the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, even the Black Crowes

I'm sure I'm missing some amazing Black <...> bands, but you get the point.
