Fleece w/ Cherokee Social + Stovetop Gemini

Lost Lake Presents Fleece with Cherokee Social and Stovetop Gemini on Friday, August 9th.     Welcome to a party with immaculate vibes thrown by four best friends onstage playing glammed-up, blissed-out music that makes you want to hug everybody and dance til the sun comes up. This is FLEECE––a campy, eccentric, chosen-family band influenced heavily by 60’s harmonies, psych rock, and contemporary pop. Their distinctive vintage-future sound and contagious joy have led them to tour internationally; including notable support slots for Sammy Rae & The Friends, Jukebox the Ghost, and Tokyo Police Club.   In 2021, the band released Stunning & Atrocious, showcasing their robust live sound and quintessential FLEECE improvisational techniques. The album launched the Canadian quartet onto the international stage, racking up millions of YouTube views and over 40 million streams. For FLEECE, making music is first and foremost a means of exploring emotions and creating connections. Their humorous and honest lyrics create an opportunity for thoughtful conversation, all while inviting listeners to revel in the good times.   As the band evolves and metamorphosizes, so too do their ever-blossoming identities both on and off stage. Made up of Matthew Rogers (vocals/keys), Megan Ennenberg (vocals/guitar), Jameson Daniel (guitar), and Ethan Soil (drums), what began as four friends singing and laughing among themselves has become a full-on community that continues to flourish with every show. Their exuberant live performances create an inviting and animated space for anyone and everyone who simply wants to feel happy, inspired, and positively groovy. With the release of their next single, “Do You Wanna Party,” FLEECE once again wraps you up in a loving, feel-good energy, inviting you to just dance and “know yourself as home.”       All ages, ticketed under 16 guests admitted with ticketed parent or guardian.

Chad Tepper w/ Elektric Animals + hellocentral

93.3 KTCL Presents Chad Tepper with Elektric Animals and hellocentral on Thursday, September 12th.     Chad Tepper, the musician with a vibrant persona earning him over 4 million followers on social media, has definitely spent some time in the limelight. Since moving from Orlando, Florida to Los Angeles in 2015 he’s jumped at every opportunity to grow his fanbase, showcasing his larger-than-life personality through stuntman-like antics and gnarly skateboard tricks. But in more recent years he has shifted focus to his true passion – making music – and building a lasting legacy in the alternative world.   Since hitting the studio for the first time 4 years ago, the singer & guitarist is proving to be our generation’s next authentic rockstar. The effortlessly grunge quality of his voice combined with an all or nothing mindset and flair for storytelling find him equipped with the tools he needs for a fruitful career. Already seeing streams in the millions – over 15 million this past year alone – his talents have been recognized by industry majors such as Apple 1, Spotify, Lyrical Lemonade, KROQ among others. 2021 saw huge milestones for Tepper, boasting dream collaborations with Simple Plan, Travie McCoy and Cheat Codes; all acts that he grew up listening to and influenced the artist he is now.   But there’s more to Chad than meets the eye; the tattooed ex-pro skater wouldn’t be the success story he is today without his fair share of hardship. The unfortunate fate of his early life saw Chad facing seven years of childhood homelessness, an experience that forever shaped the person and artist that he is today. “It was a moment in time and history of my life that I’ll never forget and honestly shaped me so much,” Tepper explained. “I wouldn’t be who I am without it and beyond that it is the reason why I write music the way I do.”   After getting his first cassette player from a homeless shelter when he was 6, Tepper was destined to make music. Growing up watching icons from the 70’s such as Rick James, Freddie Mercury and Elton John, he also was impressed by early pop-punk, alt-rock and grunge that inform the high-powered music he makes now. Finding himself coming back to emotionally charged lyrics full of self-depracating coping mechanisms, Chad reflects, “For some reason, my lyrics are all about love, heartbreak and being a fucking loser my whole life.”   An entertainer at heart, if you’re lucky enough to see a live Chad Tepper show you’ll be able to witness his outgoing energy and charisma as he commands the stage, loving and embracing every second of life. His flair for theatrics and passion for captivating audiences are a recipe for a truly dynamic performance. He gives 100% of himself and sometimes admittedly gets a little too in the moment, noting “All the crazy stuff I’m known for sometimes comes out too hahaha – it’s like a punk show from the 70s.”   He isn’t afraid to bare it all (literally) to the world and with his recent signing to the legendary Epitaph Records, he’s ready to dive head-first into a new era. When it comes down to it, Chad just wants to share his story. “My music is real. I’m a storyteller. It’s all my past or things I believe for my future. I’m never scared to be vulnerable and I think that’s relatable.” All ages, ticketed under 16 guests admitted with ticketed parent or guardian

Mr. Gnome w/ Spyderland + Glass Human

Lost Lake Presents Mr. Gnome with Spyderland and Glass Human on Tuesday, October 15th.     Pushing the limits of sonic exploration, Cleveland art-rock duo, Mr. Gnome, create a living, breathing, shapeshifting realm of psychedelic orchestration on their eagerly anticipated LP, A Sliver of Space, set to be released September 27th on El Marko Records.    Today, the duo share the swirling, hypnotic first single from the record, “Nothing and Everything.” The track is filled with the uncertainty, fear, sadness and confusion over the unexpected losses the duo experienced during the recording process, leaving them feeling like the world had shifted in the wrong direction. .    Mixed by Claudius Mittendorfer (Interpol, Tennis, Temples, Panic at the Disco, Parquet Courts, Ra Ra Riot), A Sliver of Space explodes with hypnotic, gritty rock anthems that suddenly give way to long-form, drug-fueled journeys that transport the listener on a surreal trip from start to finish. Continuing to defy simple genre classification, Mr. Gnome creates a dense tapestry of textures, aural fabrics, and influences that all coalesce into a unique, defining sound. Throughout its relatively compact runtime, electronica, desert rock, punk, indie rock, and lush soundscapes swirl and converge, all woven with the continuous thread of lead singer/guitarist, Nicole Barille’s golden harmonies.   “When we started writing A Sliver of Space,” they describe, “we were working through a lot of personal loss and life upheaval. Lyrically and musically, nothing was off limits and we dove headfirst into really exploring the liminal, dreamlike spaces between life and death, consciousness and unconsciousness, the past and the future, happiness and sadness, the real and the make believe. This album is essentially about our descent into madness and our ultimate salvation through love.”   Since 2005, Barille and drummer/pianist Sam Meister have been crafting a vision of expansive, technicolor art-rock, receiving critical acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone (named “Band To Watch” in a spotlight review), Pitchfork, NPR, Paste, Esquire, Spin, Magnet, MTV, KEXP, and American Songwriter, among others. In addition to this wholly-realized sonic presentation, Mr. Gnome has an extensive history of producing head-turning DIY visuals in the form of otherworldly album covers, artistic press photography and mind-bending short films.   Such ambitious audiovisual presentation is matched perhaps only by the energy of their live shows, as Mr. Gnome has long held a strong cult following across the United States for their cathartic, raucous performances. This sixth release sees the long-awaited return of Mr. Gnome to the stage for their upcoming, coast-to-coast U.S. tour this fall. They will be joined by touring guitarist/bassist, Jonah Meister, who is also a featured player on A Sliver of Space.   Whether via sound, visuals, or live experience, Mr. Gnome has a knack for taking the beautiful monsters that exist within all of us and shining a glorious light on them. A Sliver of Space finds beauty in chaos by alchemically fusing spectral sounds with a widescreen cinematic perspective. This soaring, introspective musical journey constantly beckons the listener – to get lost watching stars explode, to gaze upon souls splitting and swirling to reunite, and to melt their minds if only for a moment.   Won’t you join them?     All ages, ticketed under 16 guests admitted with ticketed parent or guardian

MICHELLE w/ ggwendolyn

Lost Lake Presents MICHELLE with ggwendolyn on Friday, November 8th.     MICHELLE first started because producers Julian Kaufman and Charlie Kilgore wanted to write an album celebrating their love of New York City. All 6 members of the group grew up there, and their fluorescent R&B encapsulates the best the city has to offer: the glow of neon lights bouncing off rain-slicked streets, the taste of a sticky mango purchased on a summertime Q train.   But over the last few years, the band has spent a lot of time away from home. Amid the success of 2018’s HEATWAVE, and 2022’s AFTER DINNER WE TALK DREAMS, they traveled the U.S. and Europe opening for Gus Dapperton, Arlo Parks, and Mitski, headlining their own shows, and playing festivals. It was an experience that shifted their perspective and sense of place.   While writing their new album, Songs About You Specifically, MICHELLE decided to rent out a house in Ojai, California for three weeks. They were surrounded by dry heat, lizards, the smell of ripe cactus fruit. Suddenly everything was quieter, slower. “The mornings were so nice,” Sophia D’Angelo says of this time. “We would all make coffee and journal on a picnic table outside. We would usually split up into two groups of three. Whoever finished writing first made dinner and then the other group would clean the dishes.”   The experience shifted the tone of their work. While their earlier music channeled the churning restlessness of the city, these news songs meander and expand. MICHELLE will always know how to write a delicious hook: soaring indie pop track “Mentos and Coke” oozes with intoxicating sweetness and synth pop number “Oontz” eases effortlessly into a silky groove, even as both songs detail unstable relationships. But, throughout much of the record, the band let riffs simmer and melodies drift. The distorted vocals on “Trackstar” diffuse into a starry reverie. The synth notes on “Painkiller” float by breezily as MICHELLE sing about running away from their feelings.   The months spent touring, as well as the experience of living together in Ojai, fostered new bonds between the band. “There are friends I’ve had for almost my whole life who I won’t know as intimately as I know members of this group,” Emma Lee says. “There isn’t really an opportunity for that in any other kind of relationship in your life.” The sense of trust and comfort they fostered with each other allowed them to be more candid and vulnerable in their songwriting too. “It’s so easy to write a generic love or breakup song,” Julian Kaufman says. “But many of these stories are true. We’re coming from a really honest place.”   Part of that honesty involves self-reflection. Whether they’re apologizing for being away so often on “Missing On One,” admitting to numbing their negative emotions on “Painkiller,” or lusting after someone while in a relationship on “Akira,” there is poignant bittersweetness to these songs because MICHELLE reveal their mistakes and regrets as clearly as they do their desires. It makes for textured, deeply compelling music that reveals what it means to be human: constantly yearning, chasing, loving, faltering, and restarting, in no particular order.   Without friends or loved ones to hold you accountable, to witness your life and push you to engage with its jagged and unsavory bits, it is easy to airbrush your reality. But, while making Songs About You Specifically, MICHELLE slowed down, cut out any distractions, and fostered a sense of communal closeness that necessitated honesty. They ended up with a collection of songs that feel like the truth.     All ages, ticketed under 16 guests admitted with ticketed parent or guardian
