Motopony Giveaway: Vinyl! Tickets! Merch!

This Friday, Seattle-based Motopony is back in LA performing at The Echo with Those Darlins and White Arrows. We’re giving away 1 pair of tickets to the show, Motopony’s self-titled debut album on vinyl and a band t-shirt. Keep reading to find out how to win!

This past week, Motopony, along with well-known artists Arcade Fire, Kings of Leon, Iron & Wine, Bon Iver and Adele, were selected to have their song “King of Diamonds” featured as the Starbucks iTunes Pick of the Week. The song was available as a free download at Starbucks locations throughout the United States.

Kicking off their summer tour this Friday, the folk band shares dates with Those Darlins and Daniel Johnston. Plus the guys will also be performing at Bumbershoot Festival (9/5) and DeLuna Festival (10/16).

The four-piece is fronted by lead singer, songwriter, former fashion designer and writer Daniel Blue along with collaborators Buddy Ross, Brantley Cady and Forrest Mauvais. Motopony has quickly risen through the Seattle music scene receiving praise from KEXP while Seattle Weekly called them one of the “nine up-and-coming bands at the heart of Seattle’s music scene” and Tacoma’s Weekly Volcano named them “Tacoma’s Best New Band.”

And if that’s not enough to get you to The Echo this Friday, then watch the band’s video for “King of Diamonds” and if you’re a fan of buzzing celeb Olivia Wilde, don’t let her down because she recently gave the band a shout out via twitter:

“Sitting on my roof listening to Motopony, taking in the sunset. New York, I think I want to have your babies.” —@OliviaWilde
