Bedouin Soundclash is currently on tour in support of their latest album Street Gospels. Despite being based in Toronto, Canada the band has managed to seamlessly capture the vibe of the Caribbean Islands and infuse it into their musical undertakings.
The trio mixes reggae, ska, dub and rock in a way that recalls not only blue-eyed predecessors like the Police and UB40, but Jamaican icons Desmond Dekker, Bob Andy, Ken Lazarus, Lee “Scratch” Perry and Junior Murvin. You can catch the Bedouin Soundclash performing September 24th at Wonder Ballroom in Portland, Oregon along with fellow Canadians Hot Hot Heat.

LA's Have you ever had a moment when you were at a show at a tiny club and thought how great the band was, then years later you can't even buy a ticket to see them because they sold out in 5 minutes? You then say to yourself, "Damn, I remember seeing those guys when they were nothing. Who knew.." Well, I had one of those moments. The Away Station is from Las Vegas, but don't expect anything less than soaring vocals, crushing choruses and songs that feel like they should be played in an arena. You can tell that their influences are bands like Coldplay and U2, but I also heard similarities to bands like China Crises and Aztec Camera (old school). Do yourself a favor, and check out Away Station before they sell out in 5 minutes.
