Beachwood Sparks only released two albums before going on an extended hiatus in 2002. The honchos at Sub Pop convinced them to regroup for the label's 20th-anniversary celebration, and San Francisco now gets a one-off club show from the lesser-known legends. Along with the Elephant 6 collective, the LA-based Beachwood Sparks were the preeminent interpreters of '60s sunshine pop to emerge in the '90s. The group melts down Beach Boys harmonies and Byrds guitar jangle into top-shelf cosmic California music that still outshines alt-country's heavier hitters.
