Week of August 22nd, 2011

2011-08-23T20:46:00.000-07:00

So yeah, it's been a great week so far. It's Tuesday, which means rehearsal so we created a few new songs, went over our set for Sunday's CD Release Party and discussed our upcoming gigs to California. This is our first trip out there as a band and we're stoked. We've traveled to other cities in the past, for example New York, Atlanta and even Mexico (Tijuana for the Jaguarton) but California is something we've been looking to for a long time now. This is going to be awesome!

On the weekend's recap, we were over at Junior's on Saturday night to catch Velorio who were in town for the weekend. They tore that place up! A wee wee! The place was jumping with bailadores all night. It was definitely a good time and that's why playing with them in Anaheim at the end of September is something we're so excited about. Those guys can rock!

On Sunday, we had some badass bar-b-q over at Fat Willie's with Velorio. We were pleased to hear the guys enjoyed the food (and the coffee) so we were glad we decided on that over the usual pizza places we head out to for los turistas. Ay tu. Puro rocanrol!

After tonight's rehearsal we're heading over to Crocodile for Tony's DJ set. If you're out and about, join us. If he can make us dance, he'll definitely make you dance. Don't forget to catch his set with electronic musician Kampion at Abbey Pub on Friday for this year's Festival of Latin Electronic Music.

See you Sunday, August 28th at Joe's Bar (on Weed Street) for Vocalo Presents: The Music Vox Live for our CD Release Party. Joining us on stage, >>radiant devices<<, with host Jesse Menendez.

Review: The Things We Do

2011-08-21T08:13:00.000-07:00

Here's the first review for our new album "The Things We Do" (available on iTunes).

(Mike Borden Photography)

"Holy shit.

That is all I kept thinking when listening to [.DESCARGA.]‘s new EP The Things We Do (due August 9, 2011). From the perspective of an outsider, it seemed as if the band spent the last year or so in a state of transition." Read the entire review...

Empty Bottle Recap + Upcoming Performance

Saturday, May 14th was our first performance at Empty Bottle and it was awesome! Thanks to everyone involved in the show's production, from the great sound guys to all the fans who came out to support us, the guys from Soulphonetics, and those who enjoyed listening to us for the first time. This was a sold out show for Bomba Estereo and we're thankful to RatioNation and Empty Bottle for this opportunity. Let's keep rockin'!
