Blondfire bring their magic to the Troubadour

Having just opened a show for the Shins in Seattle, brother/sister duo Blondfire will make its way back to LA for a show at the Troubadour on Tuesday. This time they will be supporting Australia’s Atlas Genius. Blondfire consists of Bruce and Erica Driscoll, and they have been traveling up and down the West Coast in support of their recently released EP, "Where the Kids Are." The Michigan natives are of American and Brazilian decent and have been playing music in some form or another since they were kids. Their mother is a classically trained pianist who encouraged them to take lessons at an early age. Through the years, Bruce and Eric explored various music interests, which included the likes of The Smiths, The Cure, and ’80s pop, and they have now come together to build a shimmery dream pop sound with delicate female vocals, catchy loops and addictive melodies. The songs on the EP have the enchanting and nostalgic essence of bands like M83 and the fun beats of fellow LA band Foster the People. A full-length called "Young Heart" is on its way via Warner Bros Records. – Karla Hernández
