Our Spotlight Band is rockers KANDUR from San Francisco

November 26, 2016

Today our Spotlight Band is KANDUR. We recently caught KANDUR performing at the Neck of the Woods in San Francisco. They kicked off the show with The Fame Riot and RADKEY. They came out with great energy and got the crowd ready to rock. Their music delivers a great balance of alternative rock with hard hitting punches and dipped in a classic rock vibe. Very refreshing to find a band that brings out some great feel good rock music. The band is the works of Ilker Kandur who relocated to San Francisco when the political climate in his home of Istanbul started to take drastic turns for the worse, choosing San Francisco as one of the western world’s most historically progressive locales, and the home of many of his musical influences, San Francisco. Genre: Alternative Rock/Rock Location: San Francisco, CA Feature: Delivers alternative rock with roots deep in the classic rock vibe, and yet can bring out some hard hitting rock tracks. Definitely pleasing fans across genre walls. Song to check out: new single, Save Me: Current [Read More]

I know I am always telling you to get out and enjoy the many great bands out on tour. Well this time, I am begging you to get out and catch the Radkey Fall Tour with The Fame Riot. It will be a rare treat to catch these amazing bands in an intimate venue setting. It won’t be long that they will be playing large capacity venues as they are sure to explode onto the music scene. We caught the tour as it made a stop in San Francisco this past Sunday night. The night kicked off with a great set by local band, Kandur which we will featuring in an upcoming post. Next up was one of our recently featured bands, The Fame Riot featuring brothers Liz and Shazam. They are incredible and dished up “feel good” music that has you dancing and letting go of any concerns or stress. Their music brings out a nostalgic vibe of 70’s glam/rock as well as the infectious style of 90’s alternative/dance, and a heaping side of modern day [Read More]
