Superhumanoids

Superhumanoids will be playing the Live Show on January 27th.

From the great City of Angels comes the Superhumanoids, a band that creates “music to help kiss the doldrums away”… as so their Facebook fan page says. Comprised of two members from the punk-based The Franks, Sarah Chernoff and Cameron Parkins, with the addition of Max St. John and Evan Weinerman, the Superhumanoids have released a four-track EP filled with dreamy pop melodies reminiscent of the ’60s that are infused with a bit of electro-based synths and some garage indie rock a la ’90s for a bit of edge.

Although only four songs, Parasite Paradise is the perfect representation of a band that first started out as a solo bedroom project of Parkins and has now transformed it self to be one of L.A.’s hottest indie bands (and not to mention one of Grimy Goods’ “Hot Band Alerts”).
