Three tips for surviving today’s monsoon weather in Los Angeles: Seek shade, stay hydrated and listen to tonight’s L.A. Buzz Bands Show on KCSN (88.5 FM, streaming at KCSN.org). OK, that last part might not be doctor-recommended, but it couldn’t hurt. I have new music of all flavors — fresh songs from Beach Party, Sego, Cold War Kids, Henry Wolfe, High Desert Fires, Julia Holter, Gardens & Villa, Big Black Delta, Castro and the Eagle Rock Gospel Singers, along with tunes from three of the artists playing Chinatown Summer Nights next Saturday: Andy Clockwise, SWIMM and Alex Lilly. I’ll have a cold beverage in hand for this hour of local music, so you grab one too.
