The Fonda Theatre in Hollywood hosted the sold-out show for the final night of the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club‘s tour supporting their new album Wrong Creatures, the eighth album in 17 years for the rock veterans. If you ever wanted to cry over your ex in a dark room filled with strangers, I highly suggest a […]

Last weekend was reserved for the indie pop group Ablebody, who performed at the new Moroccan Lounge. Never missing a beat from the identical twins (Christoph and Anton Hochheim), the band delivered a stellar performance. The best part about Ablebody live, is the love they draw from the crowd. They just put out that energy […]

Happy folk gathered at the gorgeous Wiltern Theatre Saturday evening for a night of dancing. Dan Auerbach and the Easy Eye Sound Revue took place right here in Los Angeles. Brought along on tour were friends and fellow label mates of Auerbach, Shannon and the Clams. The sold -out crowd instantly began dancing along to the fine tunes of this Oakland-made band. You’ve […]

Angelinos gathered at the beautiful Ace Theatre this past Wednesday night for the true Valentine – Kimbra. The breathtaking Grammy-winning artist brought her incredibly unique form of art to the beautiful stage this Valentine’s Day. Her music uniquely blends R&B, jazz, and rock stylings together to create something so beautiful. Many of us discovered her […]

Wringing out every drop of energy from the crowds that screamed mercilessly for them at the Hollywood Palladium, indie-pop act Walk the Moon was a live-wire of frenzied energy Friday night. Led by Nicholas Petricca in his pure white, tasseled jacket — looking like a glam-rocker from a bygone decade, the band enthralled fans with […]

Last Friday night YACHT headlined the Lodge Room, a new venue in a repurposed Masonic Temple in Highland Park. It’s beautiful inside, albeit up a flight of stairs (though fully wheelchair accessible!), and as a result, prone to overheat; can’t blame the people for wanting to dance and shake all night long. The room was […]

Michael Angelakos, the stratospheric crooner behind synth-pop outfit Passion Pit, has never been one to aim for tame concerts. Instead, like his moniker implies, the singer/songwriter prefers to let the gauntlet of emotions that drive his wild, electronic melodies to erupt onstage with all the chaotic and shimmering gusto he and his bandmates can muster. […]

So we’re halfway through our ordinary week when Albert Hammond Jr. announced a free show with RSVP at the super intimate Downtown LA bar, Resident. Obviously anyone who’s anyone had to be there; and dang was the line long. Luckily for us we got inside and let me tell you, it was a night for […]

Even though this Friday night in Hollywood was nearly arctic, the sunny songs of Sure Sure and Hippo Campus brought warmth to the Fonda Theatre. When entering the venue, the mostly teenage crowd ran to the barricade: the stage was set. As the Fonda’s lights dimmed, Los Angeles-based Sure Sure’s catchy guitar riffs electrified the […]

There is a method to the madness for the opening half of St. Vincent’s set. Like many shows on the Fear the Future tour, Annie Clark, known as St. Vincent, began her sold-out show stage right with her signature guitar in hand playing “Marry Me” from her first album of the same name. The curtain […]
