Silverlake Lounge Music Mondays
THE MUSEBOX PRESENTS
FREE MUSIC MONDAYS
AT SILVERLAKE LOUNGEThe MuseBox’s Free Music Mondays at Silverlake Lounge have been a blast thus far. Please join us for the last one of the month on September 30th, featuring Puro Instinct, Night Club, and Golden Gloves.
Puro Instinct creates dreamy, ethereal melodies not dissimilar to heavies of the past few decades (Cocteau Twins, Lush), but with the doomed worldview of today’s California, fallin’ into the sea, creeping ever so slightly in the background. They received Pitchfork’s vaunted Rising tag, and they’ve collaborated with local heroes like Ariel Pink, amongst others.
Night Club is an electronic pop duo from Los Angeles, CA that features Emily Kavanaugh (vocalist) and Mark Brooks (producer). Although Brooks comes with a lengthy pedigree in performing/DJ-ing (Warlock Pinchers, Foreskin 500, Le Pimp and MegaJive), this marks Kavanaugh’s first entrance into performing, following in the steps of her father, Kevin Kavanaugh (keyboardist of the legendary New Jersey band Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes).
Golden Gloves is an LA-based musical project featuring Chris Norton and whoever else happens to be in the room at any given time. His live show features 808s and loud guitars.
Don’t miss it: come out to Silverlake Lounge on September 23, starting at 8pm. Oh, and did we mention it’s free? Because it’s totally, 100% FREE.
Throughout the night, we’ll be spreading the word about No Kill LA – every day pets need to find a permanent home, and every day No Kill LA works to make that happen.

Fox Looking at Gotham
ICv2 is reporting that the FOX network has placed and order for a Gotham series after a bidding war between networks. The show will feature a young Commissioner Gordon and will not feature Batman. It is to be along the lines of the old DC Comics series Gotham Central, which some of you might have in your collections.
