BLVD's genre bending, life affirming music inspires frenzy on the dance
floor that rings in the ears and minds of its audience long after the
party is over. Few bands can provoke the kind of electric atmosphere
that BLVD has at its shows. This unconventional mixture of hip-hop
vocals, rock guitars, street beats, and sub woofing bass is enough to
galvanize and convert any crowd into a devoted fan base.
2008 was a dizzying blur of firsts and foremost for the San Francisco
based band BLVD. While whipping up crowds across the US with their
fresh urban sounds this four-piece has positioned itself as a new
champion of the burgeoning live electronic movement. The fallout of
BLVD's blitz on premier west coast festivals in '08 (High Sierra Music
Festival, Earthdance, Joshua Tree Music Festival, Lightning in a
Bottle, Shambhala, etc) lead to several licensing deals with
conglomerates such as Victoria’s Secret, AOL, CBS, MTV and more. The
band dropped its full length release (Music for People) last summer and
toured heavily as the album garnered critical acclaim and remained in
the top 40 on CMJ charts for 6 weeks. The release also got BLVD named
to the "Hot 100 Unsigned Artists" of 2008 by Music Connection Magazine.
The group topped the year off with a show stealing set at Sea of
Dreams, the largest indoor NYE event in the US, alongside Thievery
Corporation and Bassnectar.
2009 is expected to be an equally exciting year for this scene setting
collaboration. They’re currently in the studio with well known producer
Jeff Saltzman ( Killers, Fischerspooner, Two Gallants, The Sounds)
crafting their follow up to 08’s Music For People and a spring tour
will take them up the west coast, east to Hampton, VA for a Phish after
show, and to the SXSW festival in Austin. The tour ends with a string
of dates alongside Lotus as they stop at the premier theaters in the
North East.

We are so so so so sorry to announce that Friday nights BLVD show at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz is Canceled.
This
show was planned as a major kick off party to the new renovation in the
club, sound, lighting, stage, everything; which would be sick. Bad part
is, construction is not going to be completed in time.
If you have purchased tix please contact the Catalyst.
So
again we are very sorry but please let everyone know in the area the
show is no longer happening in Santa Cruz but we will be rescheduling a
much bigger better show soon.
Good news, Tahoe on Saturday is still
very much on. So please come on up and party down with us at Mt Tallac
Brew Co in S Lake Tahoe, Ca!
