BRAINWASHER (DJ set, members of The Flaming Lips)
Brainwasher (Oklahoma City) is the brainchild of Matthew Duckworth Kirksey (vocals, drums, keyboards, sampler) and Tommy McKenzie (guitar, bass, keyboards, sampler), known for their involvement in celebrated acts such as The Flaming Lips, Miley Cyrus, Brothers Griiin, Beachy Head, and Net. The pair offers a meddled strain of trip-hop, touching on industrial, new wave, and shoegaze, in encapsulating stripped-down, psyched-out songs that connect directly with the lizard brain. Their debut full-length album, 39 Lightyears from Heaven, is soon to drop via Montréal boutique imprint Mothland.
THE WHOM
A blast of Live at Leeds era jams by THE WHO… performed by: THE WHOM of course.
SHARP DRESSED MEN
The bangin’est ZZ Top jams performed by some very rad dudes, including Kings’ very own Valient Himself.
