Tonight La Luz and Heatwarmer Are So Good Your Heart Will Ache
Posted by Megan Seling on Wed, Mar 20, 2013 at 11:18 AM
(Heartland) UGH. This lineup is filled with music that is so wonderful, it will make your heart ache. La Luz's '60s-inspired girl-group surf rock is impeccably executed, and it's delivered with the same stoic indifference infamously pasted on the faces of mod go-go dancers. The songs themselves, though, are so catchy that you won't mind the so-pristine-it's-almost-robotic performance. Plus, you'll need the rest after working up a sweat during Heatwarmer's set. Their video for the song "Rejoice" is literally a dance party. The song is part Who guitar explosions, part Weezer power pop, part eight-bit geek-out, and part yacht rock, and I love it so much that while writing this blurb, I've listened to it three times, and I can't bring myself to check out the rest of their songs. I'm good with this, really. It literally has all I need from a song crammed into five great minutes.
