Today we are featuring the San Francisco techno-acoustic performer known as Tycho.
He doesn’t just twiddle knobs on a computer keyboard at his shows. Real guitars and drums are also part of the sound. And aside from music, Tycho – whose real name is Scott Hansen – is also a graphic designer. He creates abstract patterns and designs to accompany his ambient songs, which he calls “artifacts from the future.”
Today we are featuring the soulful, old-school sounds of Adrian Costa. The Palo Alto bluesman will be on stage Sunday, May 27th at Cato’s Ale House in Oakland. It’s on Sunday, so music starts early, around 5:30pm.
What’s the point of seeing a band live? You want them to be lively, of course. And Le Panique, the band we’re featuring today, knows that. This group, from San Francisco, thinks that if the audience sees the band having fun, it will translate to them. You can check out that translation on Wednesday May 23, when they play Eli’s Mile High Club in Oakland.
