Today we’re premiering another video from San Antonio songstress, Ila Minori. The haunting clip from the song “Mend” details the fallout of a breakup, featuring Erica Monzon aka Ila Minori as she contemplates her breakup. The video is beautifully shot on location in Austin and San Antonio by John-Marc Lucid (Lucid House Productions). Lucid expertly depicted the emotional lows of dealing with a sudden breakup. The clip is moving to watch and highlights Ila Minori’s incredible vocal style.

Austin rock band Rival Waves are dropping their first full-length album, Transducer this Friday, August 10 at Empire Control Room. The group was voted Artist of the Month by The Deli Austin readers in July. The band recently provided support for Young Rising Sons at 3TEN Austin at ACL Live. Cosmic Clash Presents even had the Joel De La Garza-led act on one of our bills before they unfortunately had to bow out last minute. We’re happy to have a hand in announcing their record release this week as a consolation prize. As a bonus, one of our local favorites, Darkbird perform with Midcentury rounding out the bill. It’ll be an energizing night of rock n roll for local music fans.
