The L.A. Buzz Bands Show returns to KCSN (88.5 FM, streaming at KCSN.org) tonight at 9 to help you make it through another torturous Southern California winter weekend. Ahem. So after another long day of braving 80-degree temperatures and shoveling sunshine out of your driveways, join me for new music from Riothorse Royale, Northern American, Talk in Tongues, Strange Babes, Gateway Drugs, Panthar and Distant Cousins, along with short preview of bands playing next Saturday’s Chinese New Year Festival in Chinatown. This week’s “Flashback Track” rewinds to the 2006 for a selection from the EP by L.A. dream-poppers Languis — it’s being re-released this month by Shelflife Records. Below, tonight’s playlist, subject to last-minute tweaking:

Riothorse Royale, “Rabbit Hole”
Talk in Tongues, “Mas Doper (Love Me Probably)”
Gateway Drugs, “Fridays Are for Suckers”
Strange Babes, “Come Back Around”
