Say hello to the dopey-voiced angel, WALL. The London-based singer-songwriter performed at the Echo this past Monday as one of the supporting acts for the Monday Night Residency with Harriet.

The Orwells dominated the Echo on February 22nd, with help from Criminal Hygiene and Gap Dream. When I first arrived at the show there were so many young people there.

In January, when we first received word of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ special performance at the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood, we were all glowing with excitement; however, that glow fizzled to a dim light when we saw that hefty $163 ticket price. For those that bit the bullet, they are most thankful they […]

‘Wow’ is the first word that comes to mind when I think of the Hives. I first started listening to the band at a very young age and they were my very first concert. I remember seeing them back in 2008 at the Wiltern and was stuck sitting in the balcony. I remember, even though I […]

Los Angeles punks, Fidlar, played the Constellation Room in Santa Ana this past Sunday (Jan 20, 2013). With the support from friends, Pangea and Meat Market, they all brought the rock and roll fury.
