B3SCI Presents: Jungle w/ James Supercave @ The Echo in LA on Monday, March 17, 2014

Jungle for Echo

London newcomers Jungle are one of emerging music’s most exciting stories right now. After a buzz ridden last half of 2013, and only a small handfull of tracks having been released by Chess Club and B3SCI Records (that’s us), Jungle are poised to make a major splash in 2014 with their forthcoming debut full length via venomous indie champions XL Records.

The band will surely be riding high from their busy week in Austin, TX for SXSW… and so, we are thrilled to have the chance to team up with The Echo to present Jungle’s Los Angeles live performance debut along with support from this month’s artist in residence (the also very awesome) James Supercave. Advance tickets for the show are sold out, but rumor has it that there will be a select amount still available at the door for early birds trying to get a glimpse. More details for the show are available at the link below.

B3SCI Best of 2013: Top 50 Songs

2013top50songs

Mick Jagger once said, “I know it’s only rock n’ roll, but I like it.” And while, 1974 Mick is probably too coked out right now to salute this year’s best 50 tracks, Keith Richards just dropped a heater of lick and suddenly Mr. Jagger’s all punching the air shouting, “Yes I Do, Yes I Do.” It’s B3SCI’s favorite 50 tracks of 2013.

PHOTOS: Casa Indio @ Folsom Street Foundry, San Francisco October 29 – November 9, 2013

Casa Indio Vice SF 11.1.13 first

This year Indio Beer and Vice Magazine have teamed up to raise awareness for Mexican and Mexican-American artists in the United States with their aptly titled Casa Indio tour. The 2013 tour of events has found it’s way to Los Angeles, Austin, Chicago, and is currently home-based in San Francisco at the Folsom Street Foundry for two weeks of culturally inspired, underground music and arts celebration.

On Friday night, November 1st, we popped into the Folsom Street Foundry for an up close look at Casa Indio. The vibes were nothing but ace as Halloween costumes were (still) in full force, local art pieces lay draped on display throughout the venue, and an abundance of complimentary Indio beer helped fuel the Casa Indio Mexican-American party. The evening’s show was presented by Mishka and showcased a stellar bill of live talent that included A1, Shadowrunners, Click, NanosauR, and DJ Vin Sol. You can check out some pictures from the event below.

Casa Indio’s two week line-up includes nearly 20 artists. The party will continue through Saturday, November 9 at the Folsom Street Foundry. For further information about Casa Indio including future performances, gallery showings, and how to RSVP; visit casaindio.vice.com.
