Local Natives LIVE at the Aztec Theatre!
A friend I was very close with back in 2018 put me on to Local Natives. I had never heard of this LA-based indie rock band but after showing me “Coins” and “I Saw You Close Your Eyes,” the catchy rhythms and smooth grooves instantly grabbed my attention. We listened…
