TOUR DIARY: Foreign Affairs NI at youbloomLA 2015
Every time we at youbloom put on a music festival, we are humbled and awed by the insane variety of talented acts that manage to make their way to us from all around the world to share in a few days of the celebration of independent music. In December, we were thrilled to welcome Northern Irish punk band Foreign Affairs NI to sunny Los Angeles for the youbloomLA 2015 Music Festival and Conference. They played a cracking set, brought amazing energy to the venue - La Cuevita - and were a top highlight in LA last year. Foreign Affairs NI have since been busy writing and playing up a storm, so pay attention, punk fans, because this band have a lot going on in 2016. When we found out they'd written a tour diary about their time in the US of A, we just had to ask if we could share some of it. It goes without saying that we are beyond sweatin' to have them back again for the upcoming youbloomDublin 2016 Music Summit & Festival, going down this June 1-3. In the meantime, check out what they had to say about their time with us under the palms out west:![youbloomLA 2015](http://www.youbloom.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Screen-Shot-2016-05-07-at-13.08.30.png)
