Mates of State are a married couple (awwww!) that make minimal pop music with vocal harmonies and synthesized flourishes. You can buy tickets them on November 8 when they play the El Rey, or you can try to win tickets! And–we will be giving away two pairs of tickets so your chances of winning are stronger than usual! To win, email rsvp@larecord.com with subject line “mates” and a link to a YouTube video of the craziest wedding misshap or blooper you can find!
MATES OF STATE
A live version of “Maracas”, with Mates of State’s trademark pretty pretty vocals and catchy keyboard riffs!

“Ten-Twenty-Ten” from the Generationals. As one astute commenter notes, this song would not have been out of place on a John Hughes movie soundtrack.
MATES OF STATE WITH THE GENERATIONALS ON TUE., NOV. 8, AT THE EL REY, 5515 WILSHIRE BLVD., LOS ANGELES 90036. 8:00 PM. BUY TICKETS HERE.
