More about Rusika

While we weren't able to make it to the show last night (If any of you did please let us know how it was). I did find out from Rusika's Myspace page that their EP is now available for purchase.

The cost is low so please consider supporting a local band. We will keep you up-to-date on this artist and also let you know about other artist who have caught our ear so keep your eye on this page.

There are really a lot of artists who put their all out there but don't have the publicity or big bucks to get their name out. Many times you can catch them "live" and they are on stage giving their all. No lip synching and you get more than your money's worth.

Myspace and Music

One thing I love about Myspace is that I find a lot of unsigned Artists there and while not all make me want to buy their album there are more and more that I find that I think people should give a listen to.

I hope to spotlight some of them here and hopefully you will give them a listen. You may not share the same taste but you never know what you will find. The bulletins often inform us of events I would have never heard about.

Today I'll tell you about one of our Myspace "friends" who has a show in the Los Angeles area tomorrow. The band's name is Rusika and they are appearing tomorrow night - Friday, November 2nd at 2nd Street Jazz in Little Tokyo for Judo Chop Vol. 8.

Here is a clip from his Nisei Week performance:




Other bands appearing are: The Outskirts, The Unaware, L2D and Inazuma. The cost is $7 and includes a $2 drink ticket. It is an all ages event so take a chance and check this event out
