Rainbow Kitten Surprise Live in Los Angeles

Rainbow Kitten Surprise headlines this Spotlight edition, an American alternative rock indie band that started in a Boone, North Carolina dorm room. Their sound draws on influences such as Modest Mouse, Kings of Leon, Frank Ocean, and Schoolboy Q, and their live sets span from early recordings to recent releases.

The band has weathered lineup changes and a cancelled tour, with founding members Ela Melo and Darrick Keller joined by Ethan Goodpaster and Jess Haney. Their catalogue includes the album How To: Friend, Love, Freefall, the live record RKS! Live from Athens Georgia, and the more recent Love Hate Music Box and Bones.
