Sadcore Sundays: “What’s In it For?” by Avi Buffalo

Posted by strange on August 21, 2017

I just saw Avi Buffalo at Echo Park Rising 2017 and he blew me awayyyyyy!! I had listened to his music when I was in high school but it was a totally different experience seeing him shred on guitar with crazy guitar pedal transitions in-between songs…by himself. I love seeing artists perform solo, it’s so much more intimate and I feel like I can see their raw soul in that moment. I felt really sick before I went to see him, but felt so comforted in his show. Hope this helps you too xoxox.
