S15E08 Cori Elba- On Planet Weird
This week we have the hilarious, sweet sassy sounds of punk drummer singer songwriter Cori Elba with Layla Moheimani on bass and Rob Elba, Cori’s dad, on guitar.
Cori’s comes to Reno from Truckee Ca, Layla too. Rob originally from Queens, now in L.A. California.
Cori began performing at the Alibi open mic in Truckee and Z bar in Reno’s every Monday.
Rob is a punk pioneer with his old New York band the Holy Terrors. You can see his pride in his daughter’s accomplishments.
Cori’s music is like new school riot girrl vibes, funny, angry and adorable. Stories from Cori’s life and perspective. Rob and Layla are totally perfect on the strings for these simple but raw punk teen angst anthems by a gal with a lot to say. These quick story songs are a kick in the pants music and art need, a go for it spirit.
She met Layla in Truckee also performing at the open mic and they were kismet. Layla is a sound engineer which has been very helpful to the band. Layla plays several instruments and loves what she’s doing.
Being in an airline family they’re able to fly places for rehearsal, gigs and our podcast! Thanks for making the trip, Rob!
We were happy they could make it to Dogwater for another great live episode of WLP.
