I made a mistake. I told the door bitch that 25 euros was too much to see a band I’d never heard of. My first mistake was not knowing who the Local Natives were and obviously my second mistake was not taking a risk and opening my wallet. These LA dudes have been frequently likened to Fleet Foxes, and whilst I get this comparison, I can’t shake the feeling that they sound like a less kooky Dappled Cities with their fast drum beat and falsetto “ooh’s”. So if ever you have a chance to see these guys please don’t make the same mistake as me! In the meantime their debut record Gorilla Manor just dropped in the U.S., including a pretty sweet Talking Heads cover.
