Rock returns to the Hammer Museum courtyard this Thursday, July 26, as part the “Also I like to rock” series of free concerts hand-picked by local independent radio powerhouse Indie 103.1. Bands Sea Wolf and Midnight movies perform tonight starting at 8 p.m.
As displayed on their debut EP, “Get To The River Before It Runs Too Low,” the sound of Sea Wolf is a combination of delicate, arching melodies and foggy, elegiac narratives.
The sound of Midnight Movies conjures a certain noir Los Angeles, replete with mystery, desire and yearning. “On Lion the Girl,” their second full-length release, the band explores haunting new vistas and back alleys of the soul, with an expanded lineup and more expansive songwriting.
The Hammer is located at 10899 Wilshire Blvd, Westwood, 90024.
