Tame Impala

Kevin Parker sees himself as a pop producer, collaborating with the likes of Kanye West and Lady Gaga while creating his own extremely popular music under the name of Tame Impala. His latest album, The Slow Rush, is more of the same—but in a good way. Pulsing beats, swirling synths and undulating basslines populate Parker’s psych-pop soundscapes, which are somehow equally appropriate for late night toking and dentist waiting rooms. If Tame Impala’s previous festival apperances are any indication, you can expect lots of fog, trippy visuals and plenty of lasers at this Hollywood Bowl performance, which is inexpliably being billed as a “clinical trial” for a fictional drug called “Rushium”—and includes support from Perfume Genius.
