Kylesa‘s new record ‘Ultraviolet’ is just around the corner (released on May 28th), but if you want to get a little taste you can head over to Pitchfork to stream an advance copy. If that’s not enough to get you psyched for Saturday night’s show at Slim’s, the band was awesome enough to make a little video from their rehearsal space to shout out all their Bay Area fans. Blood Ceremony, White Hills and Lazer/Wulf round out a great bill that’s only $16, so there really isn’t much excuse to miss it.

This Saturday at Slim’s we’ve got Foreverland, an electrifying 14-piece tribute to the one and only, Michael Jackson! If you’ve never seen Foreverland before, you’re in for a real treat. Full band, horn section, dancers, choreography…it’s a serious production and they always bring their A-game in memory of the legendary King of Pop. Get a little taste from this video here and come on down to Slim’s on Saturday night, put on your aviator shades, bust out your rhinestone glove and your sharpest loafers and be ready to get down. $16 at the door.
