The Henry Clay People
After spending the better part of 2012 touring in support of our new record Twenty-Five for the Rest of Our Lives, we, The Henry Clay People, are thrilled to announce that we are teaming up with the Songs For Kids Foundation, along with our buddies at ConsequenceOfSound. net, Buzzbands.la, Origami Vinyl, Moheak Radio, and FILTER, to bring you a very special December Residency at The Satellite. There are several reasons to celebrate: 1. This marks 10 years since the earliest incarnation of when the The HCP started bringing its brand of bratty indie rock to drunken college parties at UCSB. Since then we have played hundreds of shows throughout North America. Southern California has always been our home. Suburban born and bred. 2. Songs For Kids, a charitable organization that sends indie rocker types to perform at Children's Hospitals throughout the country, will be on hand every week to talk about what they do and how you can get involved in making a difference. Several members of the band have worked or volunteered for the organization. Songs For Kids is a wonderful organization and we believe in what they do. 3. The Henry Clays will be recording a LIVE ALBUM throughout the month. 4. You can pre-order the live album simply by donating whatever you want to the Songs For Kids Foundation at songsforkidsfoundation.org and keep a copy of the receipt. Or you can wait for the live album to be released in early 2013, at which point we'll be donating the proceeds to Songs For Kids. 5. The first 3 shows (12/3, 12/10, 12/17) are FREE! 6. The last show is on New Years Eve and is only . The Henry Clay People have a rich history of ringing in the new year at The Satellite with an always rowdy post-midnight covers set. Audience participation strongly encouraged. 7. On 12/10 we'll be doing an all HCP request set. Email requests to thehenryclaypeople@gmail.com 8. This will be end of drummer Eric Scott's 10 year tenure in the band. He will move on to pursue a career in architecture full time. 9. The lineups feature some of the best local bands and comedians that LA has to offer. This residency marks the end of an era for the HCP. We will be taking some time off after these shows to regroup, reevaluate, and catch up on some much needed sleep. We want to thank everyone who has helped us out over the past ten years: all the bands, all the folks at the shows, all the people who have shared their floor space. You are all Henry Clay People. We feel extremely lucky that we got to turn our little rock and roll hobby into a full-time thing. It was a complete accident but a very happy accident and we remain eternally grateful for the adventure.
The Cigarette Bums
Latchkey garage punks from all over CA gather for the monster they call the Cigarette Bums. Consisting of Steven Carrera and Eamon Mcginnis, and joined by Ryan Aguilar, Jaime Ramirez, and Tim "Tenor" Greenshields, the group plays "a Dylan-meets-Daniel Johnston–meets-Replacements-meets-Beefheart smash-up that's a real pleasure to watch. The Bums play repetitious, folksy stanzas with a snot-nosed, garage-band delivery, and they throw in an occasional, speedy jazz-intoned riff for flare", as says LA Weekly. With two 7 inches, a few eps, a full length on the way, and a tenacity to strive, The Bums won't stop (even after they make it to your town).

Sara Radle and the Mockingbirds
The story of Sara Radle's music career is one that began in San Antonio, Texas in the late 90's but she is probably most known for being the reason The Rentals reunited in 2005. In 1996, at the age of seventeen, she began carving out a name for herself in the Texas music scene with punk-pop trio Lucy Loves Schroeder and her own solo project. Eight years later, ex-Weezer bassist Matt Sharp played a show with her in Dallas, and very soon after, he asked her to relocate to Los Angeles, CA in 2005 to re-form The Rentals. Radle and Sharp re-built the band from the ground up, wrote some songs together, recorded the group's Last Little Life EP, and toured the world. Fans were sad to see Radle leave The Rentals in 2008, when she soon after joined Los Angeles-based indie-rock band Walking Sleep. With her September 2010 fourth solo album release, Four, it was time she returned to her true passion – writing and recording her own music.
Cinderella Motel
LA-bred Cinderella MOTEL combines the eclectic madness of 70's punk, the amped-up attitude of garage rock, and the sly sensibilities of 80's pop to create an outfit never seen around the LA scene, at least not like this. CM creates a captivating wave of sound by melting eccentric audio arrangements, breakneck tempo changes, and subversively carnal and profoundly whimsical lyrics with JFR's wailin g guitars, Guerrero's thunderous drum chops, Robles' thick-filled bass licks, and Tomahawk's full-force growling, howling yet lady-like vocals, crunchy rhythm guitar, and occasional punk-styled accordion. CM's first full-length release bolts straight out the gate with the bombastic title track 'Automatic Pleasure.' With songs like the horns-in-the-air, Sabbath-invoking 'Clearance Valentine,' the accordion-laced, punk barn burner 'Put It Out' and the hedonistic pleasure anthem 'You Were Never My Boyfriend (So Let's Dance),' Cinderella MOTEL provides the soundtrack for all of us who want to live life with the knob cranked to eleven. The album was recorded at The Cave Studio in LA by LightFM frontman Josiah Mazzaschi (William Reid-The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Blood Arm, Built to Spill) and mastered by Jon Drew in Toronto (Metric, F**ked Up, Tokyo Police Club). Basically, if Iggy, Joan Jett, The Kills and Peaches had a baby backed by the Sioux nation, you'd have Cinderella MOTEL. "Cinderella Motel's thrashy old-school squalor owes a huge debt to black-dressed songstresses of the past — fans of Siouxsie Sioux and Joan Jett, take note — with frontwoman Tammy Tomahawk juggling guitar and accordion and howling at ghosts wearing studded belts and leather collars. Or maybe they're not ghosts at all. The quartet, working on a full-length scheduled for a fall release, features thundering rhythms from bassist Dustin Robles and drummer Raul Guerrero, and appropriately shreddy licks from lead guitarist Janice Reid. L.A. once thrived on a steady diet on a steady diet of post-punk like Cinderella Motel's; now we have only occasional side dishes to make you scream like a banshee." –Kevin Bronson, Buzzbands.la Thanks for checking-in.
