DHR Presents: Fartbarf, Halloween Swim Team, The Terrapin @ Patrick Molloys Sept 14

Fartbarf, Halloween Swim Team, and The Terrapin will be performing at Patrick Molloys (Hermosa Beach, CA) 9PM Tuesday, Sept 14 – FOR FREE! It’s part of the Dirty Hippie Radio Presents Tune In Tuesdays series being funneled through Pat Molloys to bring a kaleidoscope of impressive independent music to a languorous scene.

You’re not going to get a better fix for your cranial delight than this on a Tuesday night anywhere (me thinks). Keep an eye out here or plug into our DHR Facebook for upcoming Tune In Tuesdays at Patrick Molloys as well as other DHR Presents gigs.

Fartbarf

Fartbarf hails from the Hermosa area (Redondo Beach and San Pedro), surfacing as one of the most energetic and unique bands on the beat, sure to freak you out, dance you off, or drive you apeshit. Their trippy, heavy, funnily serious electro-dance-rock music casts a spellbinding effect which draws in all walks of musical appetite. Circuit bending, robotic voices, analog synthesizers, and drums – to say the least.

Halloween Swim Team

Halloween Swim Team has created a unique and unusual sound. They’ve been (self)described as “electronic space pop prog kraut suck”. Hmm, I’m in! They’re extremely interesting, quite good, and (like Fartbarf) catchy. Maybe like a Can meets Air, but let’s not go there as it would be impossible to compare them to predecessors while they’re entirely their own LA/Inland Empire based band.

The Terrapin

I often think of The Terrapin as a Fifty Foot Hose meets Smashing Pumpkins. Picture the fluidity that permeates the Pumpkins’ heaviness becoming psychedelic, add in striking female vocals, some trippy keys and effects and you got it. The Terrapin are an Echo Park and Long Beach based band.
