United States of Electronica || Listen || Watch || Mp3

Any indie dude can bawl a sad song, but singing a genuinely uplifting one is tougher. Conjuring the communal spirits of both club music and underground rock, this seven-piece Seattle act pack their emphatically nonautomated Europop with arena-rock guitars, giddy girlie vocals, and vocoders set to stun. Rewriting the rainbow positivity of old Philly soul anthems with an English-as-second-language earnestness that amplifies their band-of-outsiders bliss, these atypical party people ride a love train that doesn’t stop chugging until the final track. They just won’t allow you to mope. – Spin

Little Red Radio || Listen

Lara, one of the two lead vocalists for the Los Angeles-based Little Red Radio, is an explosive sexpot. Her rubbing of genitalia and gyrating energy unfortunately fell on a much tamer and less boozed up crowd than the music of the following acts. Should Little Red Radio have headlined this show, as they often do in their native Hollywood, it is likely that things would have been very different. Keys, guitar, horns, laptop, boom-chh-ka-chh drumming, barefeet and one very sparkly moomoo conjured up images of the Age of Aquarius, only twisted on MDMA, cocaine and Grey Goose. – Cinebarfly
