Liberation Orchestra |
Press Release reports: ALO's (Animal Liberation
Orchestra) sun-soaked funk jams with soulful vocals, groovy bass and ace
lead guitar lines have created dance floor frenzies across the nation at
some of the biggest music festivals this summer (they kicked off Bonnaroo
with a late night set and were the pied pipers of a 6am campground parade
at High Sierra Music Festival, in addition to their main stage set!) and
now they are heading to Orange County with Jack Johnson on August 7, 2005.
ALO will be onstage at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater at 7:00pm.
Johnson, who is bringing ALO on his entire
US/Canada tour, is a longtime fan of the band and even lends his laid back
vocals to a track on their new album, Fly Between Falls. ALO has the same
crossover appeal as the top selling surfer, with smile-inducing pop ditties,
and is much more likely to get everyone shaking their booty![see full story
