Due out June 22nd: L’Aventure — A Los Angeles local sampler featuring eight L.A. bands each covering a track off Television’s second LP, 1978′s Adventure. Following up last year’s RAM On LA, Justin Gage of Aquarium Drunkard, gathers up eight of his favorite L.A. artists in an effort to highlight Los Angeles’ disparate music scene.

L’Aventure will be a suggested‐donation digital compilation with 100% of proceeds going to the Silverlake Conservatory of Music similar to RAM on L.A. which benefited No More Landmines. – via press release

In the meantime watch the Local Native perform their hit single “Sun Hands” live from Bonnaroo yesterday. Its the next best thing to actually being there ;)
