There are a lot of shows going on in L.A. this week, but not all of them are that great, however, we’ve handpicked some gems! We highly recommend catching Bosnian Rainbows. It’s the new project of Omar Rodríguez-López (Mars Volta) and Teri Gender Bender’s (Le Butcherettes). Also this week we have the City of Costa Mesa 60 & Fabulous music festival going off all weekend long with Eric Burdon & The Animals, Beach Fossils, the Soft Pack, Bleached, and many more acts.
Check out all the goods on our show list below! While keeping it selective, we’ve handpicked shows from all genres to satisfy your musical palette. The show listings with hot pink hearts are our top show picks! Let us know if we missed something good on our Los Angeles Concert Calendar (June 24 – 30, 2013).
