It’s Coachella week! While everyone heads out to the desert to to get their Coachella fix, Los Angeles is left nice and empty, sans traffic and with minimal douches. What better time to enjoy concerts in Los Angeles! This week we have LCD Soundsystem playing a warm up gig at Fox Theater Pomona! Peelander-Z will take over the Viper Room, while Underworld will get things shaking at Fox Theater Pomona. Courtney Barnett and Alvvays will tag team the Glass House, and Lush will bring their reunion show to The Roxy. On the underground tip, we highly recommend you check out American Nightmare at the Echoplex, Fat White Family at The Satellite and Aristophanes at Resident. A lot more to be seen and heard! Check out our handpicked Los Angeles (and around) show list below!
