SHWAYZE
with Tyga, Cisco Adler and DJ Skeet
Malibu. It’s where Mel Gibson shares the same 310 area code as the Malibu trailer park community that brought us Shwayze: A melting-pot of laid-back melodies, hip-hop rhythms and acoustic guitars. Shwayze pays homage to an all-day-and-into-thenight party lifestyle colored by the rolling tides of his hometown beaches.

2. DEAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS
This Arizona indie rock band released its debut full-length, “Small Steps, Heavy Hooves,” to much critical praise in 2007, and has a new one, “Drunk Like Bible Times,” expected Sept. 30. It has toured the country over (and again) with a wider variety of bands (Circa Survive to Dredg, Plain White T’s to Fear Before The March Of Flames) than most acts will play with in their entire career, let alone a year. Simply said, this quintet is five guys who love creating great music. No frills. No egos. No exceptions.

3. DARK STAR ORCHESTRA
Using entire shows from the Grateful Dead’s 30-plus years of extensive touring, Dark Star Orchestra is all about “faithful improv” re-creations of original, song-for-song, show date set lists—for an entirely new generation of—as well as old-school — Deadheads. Dark Star Orchestra presents its critically acclaimed live show at esteemed venues from coast to coast and internationally. If you’re a true fan, you’ll know which live show they’re re-creating before they tell you at the end of the performance.
