Yellow Ostrich w/ Katie Von Schleicher + Corsicana
Lost Lake Presents Yellow Ostrich with Katie Von Schleicher and Corsicana on Thursday, September 29th–16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardian Soft is the gorgeous new LP from Yellow Ostrich. It takes its name from the lyric that stands as a thesis for the entire album, a beautiful and haunting rumination on the pitfalls and pressures of traditional masculinity and on band founder Alex Schaaf’s drive toward vulnerability and tenderness as core tenets of his being. The album’s ten tracks represent the first new music in seven years to be released by Schaaf under the Yellow Ostrich moniker, since he paused the project to explore new musical identities on a handful of excellent self-released albums (from which much of the best music is included on the stellar compilation Like A Bird: An Alex Schaaf Anthology 2010-20211). He notes, “When you’re translating an experience into a song, it can sometimes get at something more accurate and universal than trying to express that feeling in a face-to-face conversation… at least for introverts like me.” Born and raised in small-town Wisconsin and recently returned to his midwestern roots in Minneapolis after a half-decade in New York City and on the road, Schaaf’s path has led to both clarity of purpose as a writer and musician, and to the acceptance that there will always be truths between people and within ourselves that lie just out of reach. Prodding the structures that he and we have grown comfortable with, he worries that he’s actually shackled by them, and wonders why freeing himself can be difficult. Whereas he used to focus on romanticized heartbreak and conflict to fuel his more personal songs, now he wants to put an end to our obsessions with the conventional emotional trappings of masculinity, friendship, and love and writes about trying to be better – both to himself and to others. Binary ideas of attraction and sexuality are frequent thematic targets, embodied in ambiguous relationships like those with the subjects of lead single “Julia” or the warm manifestos “Timothy” and “John,” and in the blunt analysis of desire in “Birds.” And on album closer “Too Much Love,” he celebrates the presence of internalized emotional extremes while also lamenting the habitual urge to suppress them: “Warm blood spills / from my eyes / ‘cause I’ve got love / too much love to hide.” The task of opening up and building bonds with other people instead of building more emotional armor over time takes work, and it requires like-minded collaborators, trusted friends, and love. Schaaf has long been a consummate assembler of outstanding supporting players to help realize his musical vision, and for the recording of Soft he enlisted the help of a few friends, including drummer Marian Li-Pino (La Luz, Donna Missal), bassist Megan Mahoney (Lissie), guitarist Mike Noyce (Bon Iver, Tallest Man on Earth), and studio and mix engineer Zach Hanson (Bon Iver, Gordi, Whitney, Waxahatchee, Hand Habits), with a guest appearance on album standout “Los Angeles” by the returning Yellow Ostrich member and great multi-instrumentalist Jon Natchez (David Byrne, The War on Drugs). On Soft, despite all the potential volatility of life lived with other people and the challenges of navigating our own self-inflicted limitations, Schaaf is beginning to feel content with the person he is… while remaining eager to keep growing. “I’m proud of the way I am,” he says, before adding, “even if my definition of that changes every day.”

LØLØ: U TOUR ME ON w/ GUS
Lost Lake Presents LØLØ: U TOUR ME ON with GUS on Saturday, March 8 — LØLØ’s journey started long before she became the fully formed pop rock force we now know today, gracing the stage with her hard hitting passion and tour de force performance energy. As a child rifling through her eclectic and extensive CD collection including everything from the Wizard of Oz soundtrack, to Hilary Duff, to Green Day, she learned how to play “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” and never put the guitar down from that point on. Emerging in 2018, she attracted a rabid fan base with heart-on-her-sleeve lyrics and hard-hitting melodies spiked with a pop rock spirit. She also dropped three EPs, the Sweater Collection EP [2019], overkill EP [2021], and debbie downer EP [2022]. Among various standouts, her cover of “Dancing In The Dark” (Bruce Springsteen) gathered over 29 million Spotify streams followed by “u turn me on (but u give me depression)” with north of 16 million Spotify streams. Plus, she earned the applause of OnesToWatch, Kerrang!’s Sounds of 2024, Alternative Press, 1883 Magazine, tmrw, PAPER who attested, “Full of all the anger, angst, cynicism and depression that makes a proper pop punk artist, Toronto singer-songwriter LØLØ is well on the rise” and a mention in September 2020 People Magazine “Emerging artists making their mark on the musical landscape”. In 2021, she collaborated with pop punk icons Simple Plan on their Amazon Exclusive “I’m Just a Kid”. Moreover, she toured with everyone from Boys Like Girls to New Found Glory and Against The Current, and has performed at Lolapalooza, Sad Summer Festival, and Slam Dunk Festival. LØLØ’s path to stardom in Hollywood was paved with its fair share of obstacles and jump scares. Since she arrived a few years back, the Toronto-born singer and songwriter has hit like a tornado with tens of millions of streams and widespread critical acclaim. She also just so happened to encounter a myriad of misfits, falling for (genuinely) heartless dudes. Along the way, she crafted what would become falling for Robots and wishing I was one with producer Mike Robinson. The concept naturally presented itself. Now, she invites everyone into her mind on her 2024 full-length debut LP, falling for robots and wishing I was one [Hopeless Records]. All ages, ticketed under 16 guests admitted with ticketed parent or guardian
