with Iress Faetooth is a three-piece “fairy doom” band hailing from Los Angeles, CA. The group comprises Ari May as guitarist and vocalist, Jenna Garcia as bassist and vocalist, and Rah Kanan on drums. Formed in 2019, the group sought to navigate personal vulnerability and musical experimentation by delving deep into the nature of self, the beauty inherent in the natural world, and the captivating mysteries surrounding us. Drawing inspiration from doom metal, black metal, shoegaze, and sludge, the term “fairy-doom” aptly characterizes their distinctive fusion of sounds.
Spiral Your Way Out, the third album from L.A.-based singer and songwriter zzzahara (a.k.a. Zahara Jaime, identifying as “they/them”), even the sonic quality suggests a taped-over analog cassette rather than a state-of-the-art digital recording. Because that suggestion happens with help from several co-producers and co-writers whose credits range from boygenius and Japanese Breakfast to Halsey, zzzahara evidently wants to cocoon broader musical efforts inside the bedroom-composed intimacy of earlier albums.
On Sunday March 30th check out zzzahara live at International. Local support to be announced soon. 7pm $20 - 21+

Join us on the first Tuesday of each month for a mystical series of evenings celebrating Sufi Poetry. The Rumi Poetry Club was founded by Rasoul Shams in 2007, on the occasion of the 800th anniversary of Jalâluddin Rumi’s birth. Since then, they have celebrated the poetry, inspiration, and perennial teachings of Rumi and other poets of the heart, nature, and spiritual life from around the world. Rasoul Shams first learned of Rumi's poems in his Persian classes as a young boy in Iran. The works of Rumi and other Persian poets have been his spiritual companions for decades. He has studied and lived in India, Japan, and the USA. His books include Rumi: The Art of Loving, Rumi Essays: On the Life, Poetry, and Vision of the Greatest Persian Sufi Poet, The Words of Rumi, and Through Love Pain is Healed. https://www.goldenbraidslc.com/events/spring-with-rumi-april-2025
