BONUS TRACKS!! 🚨
Out of town this weekend and still wanna celebrate our local musicians? Here’s some recent releases we’ve had on heavy rotation over at The Localist HQ.
Roll the windows down and turn the stereo up: we’re going on a rock n’ roll “Roadtrip” with Thunder Queens! 🚗
Status/Non-Status’ collaboration with Zoon returns with OMBIIGIZI’s “Connecting” — a haunting, rollicking single announcing the release of their sophmore album. ✌️
Featuring Saveria AND ex-pat Shad, Sunshine Makers’ “Baby It’s Yours” keeps it low-fi and fitting with this stand-out track from their latest release. Also: check that 🔥 sax riff around the 3:20 mark!! 🎷
