FREE TICKETS: Mates of State @ El Rey Theatre, LA 11/8/11

November 03. 2011 | By Trina N. Green


There’s something so earnest, confectionary, and fun about Mates of State; the husband and wife duo of Jason Hammel and Kori Gardner whose recent album Mountaintops is fun and artful and about as well done and indie-pop gets. One of my guiltiest pleasures on the album is “Maracas.” Try not to laugh at the utter retro of the video below.

So when Mates of State come to the El Rey on November 8th, they’re bringing the New Orleans indie rock duo, Generationals, with them. In order for you to score a pair of tickets to this fun-fest, you’re going to have to leave a comment telling us what your guilty pleasure is. But let’s keep it clean, this is a family organization!

Contest ends November 6th. For more information, visit the Goldenvoice event page HERE.
