After a lengthy tour around the US - including stops in Austin, Nashville, Canada and Denver - Larry Bagby is playing in LA again on Wednesday April 30th at the Cat Club. This time around, he is performing with Justine Bennett - with whom he just recorded the album 'Two not One.' They are also competing in the Nashville Star television show - like American Idol, but for country-esque music - and that starts airing in June with host Billy Ray Cyrus.
This will be Larry and Justine's only Los Angeles show before they hit the road again, so come over to the Cat Club Wednesday night. They play at around 10ish, right after Jim Carrey's daughter Jane Carrey and her band play. So you can see Daughter of the Mask followed by Larry - who appeared in the movie Walk the Line as Johnny Cash's bass player and in a KFC commercial that's running now. (The commercial has two kids and two adults at a table and one of the kids calls the woman 'Nancy' and she objects. Larry is the husband/father).
Check 'em out at the show...and also here.
The great live band The Mornings is playing on Saturday night at the Mint at 10:30. The Mint is at 6010 W. Pico Blvd in LA. Excellent live show and they're playing with several cool groups.
As a teaser, here is a video to check out. Also look at www.myspace.com/themornings for more info.
There is this great band - based in the Valley - called The Mornings. I've seen them a couple of times and they are energetic and very entertaining with their blend of rock, pop and reggae along with some 70's Wurlitzer-keyboards and horns on occasion. Recently, they have been surprising with some unusual things in their live shows. The last time I saw them the lead singer Adam did this dance-hall reggae thing that sounded like Shaggy and then three of the guys did a rapid-fire rap, over this ambient beat - which was great as well as pretty funny. One other time I saw them, they had a show at the House of Blues that was inspired by LOST the TV show - complete with singing and playing the DRIVESHAFT song 'YOU ALL EVERYBODY' . (If you watch Lost, you'll know what that is).
Anyway, I say all of that because they are playing Thursday night at the Malibu Inn in Malibu at 9:45. Check them out...its a cool venue as well - located at 22969 Pacific Coast Hwy.
I'll think you'll dig 'em
Before the show, check out their tunes here
and their super cool video for the song HAPPY here
If you want to hear a great live act, Larry Bagby and his band are playing at the Fox and the Hound Pub - 11100 Ventura Blvd in Studio City - on Sunday at around 8pm. He's outstanding - especially live - and his music blends a little country with a little rock and a little folk. The pub is cool too - very English. Bangers and Mash. Excellent.
If you want to hear Larry a little before you go see him go here or here
