My, my, 2015, what big ears you have. The first proper Buzz Bands LA Show of the new year kicks off at 11 a.m. today on The Independent FM, and I have in tow my usual suitcase full of fresh music. I’ll have tunes from forthcoming albums by Hanni El Khatib, Cotillon, Mini Mansions, the Blank Tapes and Seagoat, along with new arrivals from Lieutenant, Auditorium, Dutch Party, Little Brutes, Honeyhoney and My Double, My Brother.
