10. Shannon Shaw at Alex’s Bar — Jan. 21-22
We LOVE Shannon Shaw. Best known as the frontwoman of Shannon and the Clams, Shaw brings a soulful mix of garage rock, R&B, and doo-wop influences. Whether you’re one to stand and sway, or cut a rug in your blue suede shoes, this show will give you all that and then some. You’ll have to drive out to the LBC (not L.A. proper), but it will be worth it. Get Tickets.
