Deeply rooted in high-energy rock and roll, Best Behavior reintroduces sounds forged by bands as diverse as The Kinks, The Velvet Underground, The Beach Boys, The Who, and recent acts like The Strokes and Tame Impala, and they've amassed a devoted following in New York City thanks to their electrifying live show and honest, clever songwriting.
Trace Repeat are a 6-piece Oakland based funk and soul band (think: Bruno Mars) who are not only bringing you music that’ll get you up and moving (it is seriously catchy), but that brings attention to a much larger issue—Asian American stereotypes. It’s a cause that has gained them attention on NBC News, The Huffington Post, and Mother Jones, and led to the funding (and then some) of their IndieGoGo campaign within the first week of launching, resulting in their campaign being featured on IndieGoGo’s trending page. Their new album, ‘The Oaktown Sound’, sees them reviving the aesthetics of their Motown forefathers: Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and the tempting Temptations, to create a throwback album packed with James Brown references, Al Green harmonies, and Prince vocal runs. It’s also an album that pays homage to their roots—Oakland. Grab ‘The Oaktown Sound’ out now.
