It's summer, and you know what that means. Tours, and plenty of them! I am glad to say that the first group crashing through the west coast is New York chip rockers Anamanaguchi, with two stops in Los Angeles.

The first one kicks off at The Bandshell in Los Angeles (details through here on facebook) on August 25th. They'll be performing with Speculator and Cloud City Sound Symphony from 6-8. Oh yeah, and this is an absolutely free outdoor show as well. So no excuses!

If you sadly do have the misfortune of not catching them at The Bandshell. All is not lost, you can head down to Meltdown Comics and catch Anamanaguchi doing a set the night of August 26th at 8PM. This show is Ten bucks at the door, but still worth it for fans of the band who missed them the night before, or just demand to see them twice.

Finally, for those who do not reside in the Los Angeles region, you are not left out either, as Anamanaguchi have been hard at work this summer releasing a single every two weeks along with a B-Side track for free download on their website. As of this post they are up to six songs in total, along with three separate animated album covers by various artists as well (the latest of which is at the top of this post). There are likely more tracks and amazing artwork to come soon as well, so be sure to keep checking out their single release page for more.
