Back at SxSW ‘08, I had the pleasure of meeting the boys from Local Natives when they dropped by The HearYa party to say hello. I made my through the streets of Austin the next day to catch their set at The San Jose and it was worth every ounce of hassle it took to get there.
The California natives have built tremendous buzz after SxSW and other live shows and definitely have the benefit of momentum. They are releasing their debut album, Gorilla Manor, on 11/2. They are also going to be kicking off a big tour across the States starting at CMJ on 10/22. After that they’ll be doing some dates with White Rabbits and Edward Sharpe. As for our little corner of the world, they will be at the new Lincoln Hall on 11/27 with Edward Sharpe and Fool’s Gold. See you there after you sample them below.

“Stranger Things” is gorgeous! I liked “Airplanes” earlier, but this is a huge leap, really need to check out more from them!
