“Los Angeles” by Big Thief is a stunning and soulful stream of consciousness which made me think of R.E.M and Bran Van 3000. In fact Big Thief’s new release would segue perfectly with Bran Van 3000’s 1997 smash, “Drinking In L.A.” Check out “Los Angeles” today, you won’t regret it!

Play It Again Mayhem – “Drinking In L.A.” – Bran Van 3000 April 18, 2024

This is the 23rd song in the Play It Again Mayhem series, which began in 2020. Check out the previous entries along with this new one in the Play It Again Mayhem Spotify Playlist click here to take a listen! So far, 15 of the 23 songs are from the 1970s. But this one was originally released in 1997, and following it being used to soundtrack a Rolling Rock beer advert it went to number 3 in the UK chart in 1999. It is by Canadian rock and hip hop collective Bran Van 3000 and is called “Drinking In L.A.” This is a perfect summer song in my opinion, what do you think?
