“Indie Sleaze” is a term invented by Spotify playlist editors and 100% did not exist until this new gaggle of Class of ‘21 post-grads started making bad ripoffs after watching Meet me in the Bathroom.

I’ve said this before and I’ll keep saying it: Robert’s Western World is the apex bar. No other bar even comes close.

One silver-lining of this whole thing is that all of the “good-hearted Christians” from my childhood church community are outing themselves as heartless trolls on FB right now and my mom is finally seeing that I’ve been right about them for 20+ years.

She’d have made at least $250 if she’d have played SXSW instead.
Rihanna got paid $0 to perform at the Super Bowl half time show by the NFL but did it for exposure for her brand. Over 28.5 Million people watched her Super Bowl halftime show. Think about this the next time you think you are too big to work for exposure 🤷🏾♂️

Dave was a fixture at all of Sylvan Esso’s shows in California going back to the smallest club gigs. He’d often sit at front of house & smile ear to ear. He loved music, the synths he helped make and cherished the people who used them. May we all carry his light & love 💔
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that Dave Smith has died. If you’d like to share your thoughts and memories of Dave, please reach out to us on our website:

Please wear a mask if you see a show.
And don’t wait for Bandcamp Friday to buy a record. Lots of great bands out there bleeding cash right now on $4/gal gas & shitty paying gigs.
We gotta take care of each other. If you have the means buy an album or a tee shirt when you can.
Just for transparencies sake & cause I feel comfortable posting this: here is why it is so hard for bands to go to SX !!
This is b4 paying 10% $ to the booking agent and not including food expenses
Combination of staying in COVID safe places and gas prices is p devastating
