Press Release: The Growlers

Article by Andrés Alvarado

 

Back in 2016, Californian surf-rockers The Growlers released their fifth studio album City Club to exciting reviews and plenty of fanfare. Produced by The Strokes’ front-man Julian Casablancas, City Club displays an enticing retro-disco flair led by Brooks Nielsen’s snarly baritone, and catchy hooks, courtesy of his kooky band-mates.

 

Having toured extensively since City Club’s release, The Growlers are gearing up for the final leg of their successful North American outing and subsequently anchoring The Growlers Six Music Festival come October 28 & 29. At the helm of head-lining duties on both nights, The Growlers are bringing along a cornucopia of their famous friends like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Julian Casablancas + The Voidz, Modest Mouse, Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, and plenty more. If you’re in the Los Angeles area during these dates, be sure to snag you some tickets here.

But, before the extravaganza of The Growlers Six Music Festival comes to The L.A. Waterfront, MonkeyGoose will catch this zany fun-bunch at their anticipated gig in Atlanta’s Variety Playhouse for a full concert review and a picture, or two, or many. Exciting to say the least … stay tuned.
