Video Thursday – Local San Diego Band SO3 – “I Just Want You To”

SO3 -- I Just Want You To (Dance With Me Tonight) -- Official Video

This week an award winning video ! It got the “Silver Remi Award at the 2012 Worldfest – Houston International Film Festival”.
SO3 is a rock-trio founded by guitar maestro Mike Artamonov and bass player Serge Belongie, who alternatively take on the lead singing role. They can put up a great live show and make cool video’s too… Just see for yourself !

Video – staying local again – Saucy Monkey “Awkward”

"Awkward" by Saucy Monky (Official Music Video)

Probably biased a bit by the great looks of a bunch of sparsely-clad ladies, but I really like the way this video was done. Their drummer is one of the busiest people I know. It’s all her fault I’m posting this now…

Oh yeah, the song has a great chorus too… not just eye candy this is. And with 13k+ views in a month it’s not doing too bad either.  So go ahead: click&enjoy !

Strongly recommended: Adams Ave Street Fair, this weekend

The Adams Avenue Street Fair, Southern California’s largest FREE two-day music festival, will celebrate its 31st anniversary on Saturday, September 29, from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm, and Sunday, September 30, from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm. Click the poster for the full line-up.

Carl Durant is playing from 11am-11.45am on both Saturday&Sunday at Lestat’s West.
It’s free, all ages so come on down.

Lestat’s West: 3343 Adams Avenue, San Diego, CA 92116

 PS: between Starbucks Stage and Lestat’s Stage, the schedule itself is a list of my recommended acts. YES, it’s really that good. I can’t cut it down further. Highlights on other stages would be The Jade Element on Saturday and Tori Roze&the Hot Mess on Sunday.

Video Thursday – Staying local with Raelee Nikole

Yes, she might still be in high school but that doesn’t prevent her to dream big. Or sing wonderfully. Check out her cover of Tracy Chapman’s “Give me one Reason”. The guitar player on the original recording is Adam Levy. The same Adam Levy I opened a show for at Lestat’s in 2010. Great small world of music !
