Some know King Lollipop as Cody Blanchard, guitarist for the legendary Bay Area garage rock group Shannon and The Clams, but to others, he's simply known as the "goblin king of the junkyard, stealing pies from all the windowsills in the wasteland!" In all seriousness, King Lollipop is an artist from Oakland that sings about dumpster diving, trolls and cheeseburgers - in a hiccuping, rockabilly-style voice. Known for having his guitar slung high and the hem of his pants even higher, he looks like he has emerged straight out of a John Waters film, which is something that we at The Deli SF can definitely get behind! He'll be performing in San Francisco at  Brick and Mortar Music Hall TONIGHT with Los Angeles-based artists Santoros, Wyatt Blair and Levitation Room along with Bay Area based DJ, Al Lover. 

Bringing a sleepy, psych rock style of sound to the line up will be Levitation Room. Wyatt Blair is an artist known for combining elements of glam rock guitar stylings, power pop lyricism and garage rock grittiness. Last year he released his album Banana Cream Dream on Burger Records. Santoros is a group of seven that plays a style of frenetic, psych-infused garage rock. They're known to put on an energetic show, and have an album called Ancestros that is worth checking out. -Erin Dage

Come check out local garage-psyche rockers The Spyrals who will be sharing the bill with Cool Ghouls, Unstrung and the L.A. based band, Santoros this Friday at The Brick and Mortar Music Hall! If you’re a fan of vintage rock and roll, psychedelic guitar freak-outs and an intense amount of reverb, then we implore you check out this heavy garage rock line up. The Spyrals are bringing a new batch of tight, melodic garage rock songs reminiscent of 60’s acts like The Sonics and 13th Floor Elevators. No strangers to a good old-fashioned feedback jam, The Spyrals also know how to bring raw energy to a live performance and are sure to put on a kick ass show. -Ethan Varian

On Friday night, Brick & Mortar will be bringing together a number of garage rock acts to entertain you for the night. Burnt Ones, are headlining and will be playing some tracks from their recently released album, “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” which features some lo-fi vocals and a heavy fuzz sound. Santoros will be coming from Los Angeles to bring some folk sounds go their psych garage rock sound. Gravys Drop will also be playing some tracks from their newly released album, “Gumball” that features a 60s surf rock sound to the line-up. Swiftumz 's music will bring a much softer sound to the bill, and has a T-Rex-esque sound that will change up the sound of the night for a bit. And of course, DJ Al Lover will be playing some psych rock n’ roll music throughout the night. 

Be sure to head on out and support some great local bands! -Victor Casillas Valle
