Sparks

It’s getting closer... 🎄

‘Whomp That Cover’ - a fan-created Sparks tribute album featuring covers by fans and artists alike (including Mr.B The Gentleman Rhymer). ✨ The album will be available to buy via Sparks Mart until Christmas and all the proceeds from the sales go to a good cause; to help Sparks’ longtime drummer Stevie Nistor’s brother Evan to fight cancer.

Sparks would like to send a shout-out to "Weird Al" Yankovic, who joined the guys on stage for the final encore song ‘Amateur Hour’ on the first night at Palace Theatre in Los Angeles. What a special treat. Thank you Al! ✨ Photos courtesy of Janky Smooth.

Since the Hippopotamus era is coming to an end with the last shows in LA and Mexico City, what better way to wrap it all up than having a hometown celebration of Sparks?! ✨ Skim Milk presents: NO. 1 SPARKS PARTY IN LA Zebulon | Saturday Nov. 10th at 8PM To celebrate Sparks, their hometown shows (Nov. 14 & 15), and Skim Milk’s Sparks t-shirt collaboration, Zebulon will transform into a Sparks fest for one night! In addition to the DJ playing all things Sparks and artists performing their interpretations of Sparks songs, there will also be a Sparks Pop-Up Museum (featuring some original memorabilia and stage clothes). Furthermore, those who buy a t-shirt will be automatically entered to win special giveaways, including concert tickets. And not to mention, some VERY special guests will make an appearance...✨ The event is FREE, but due to limited capacity, those who preorder a Sparks shirt (or have already done so) will be guaranteed entry (ie. you get to skip the line). This is also the last week to pre-book your Sparks t-shirts from www.drinkthismilk.com Hope to see all you Angelenos there!
