Xu Xu Fang @ Silverlake Lounge, 4/12Xu Xu Fang's live lineup has a whopping eight people in it, and even that might not be enough to recreate the slowly expanding universe of sound they conjure on disc. The band's music emanates from some southern cosmos where bluesy mud mixes with ambient stardust, oozing out in deeply psychedelic, majestic waves - and the whole thing swirls around the husky alto of Xu Xu Fang's gorgeous, raven-haired shamaness of a lead singer. We're giving away a pair of tickets to this show, a shirt, a 12" single and a copy of the band's 2001 debut album. Visit this link and follow the instructions by 5:30 on April 11th for your chance to win. 21 and over, please.
