Young Evils (Tour Kickoff) // Acapulco Lips // Brain Drain

Chop Suey Presents The Young Evils (Tour Kick Off) The Young Evils, a rock outfit hailing from Seattle, Washington, are excellent evidence that final products often look nothing like initial intentions. Started as a lighthearted Vaselines-inspired pop duo composed of record store co-workers Troy Nelson and Mackenzie Mercer, the Young Evils today bear only passing resemblance to their past selves. After their charming debut album Enchanted Chapel captured hearts far and wide, the duo expanded their sound, enlisting guitarist Michael Lee and teaming up with acclaimed Brooklyn-based producer/engineer Shane Stoneback (Vampire Weekend, Sleigh Bells, Cults) for the follow-up: the bombastic and wholly rock EP Foreign Spells. Today, brothers Brendon (bass) and Scott Helgason's (drums) rhythm section provide the back bone to the band's 80's inspired angular pop in a way only siblings can provide. On November 18th 2014, the Young Evils released the False Starts EP recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in Los Angeles and The Kill Room in Seattle, Washington before rejoining Shane Stoneback in the studio to begin work on their next full-length album. https://www.facebook.com/theyoungevils/ http://theyoungevils.tumblr.com/ http://www.youngevils.com/ Acapulco Lips Formed in a smelly, moldy, Seattle basement in the Summer of 2012 by four people from all over the country and beyond (France). Brought together by an intense interest in all things rock 'n' roll, they sought to create a sound that combined their many influences; namely, the sounds of the 60's: R&B, Garage, Surf, and Pysch. The result was a reverb laden, fuzz filled, catchy batch of songs. Currently working on a full length release due in Spring '15! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Acapulco-Lips/162959996397 http://acapulcolips.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/acapulco_lips BrainDrain http://206braindrain.bandcamp.com/ $8 ADV / $10 DOS // 9pm doors // 21+
