It’s that time of year where we share our best concert photography of the year. Whether it be the capture of a genuine smile, or an iconic pose — Grimy Goods’ best concert photography of 2019 doesn’t just consider lighting, composition and other artistic elements that make concert photography beautiful and unique — it’s more […]

Queens of the Stone Age on Halloween?! It already sounded like a crazy show, before I even stepped foot into The Forum. Having never seen Queens of the Stone Age before, I had been dying to see them, and to say they lived up to my expectations would be the understatement of the year. Everyone with […]

Conan O’Brien kicking off George Fest Fans of all ages, backgrounds and styles came out to the Fonda Theatre Sunday night to attend the first ever GeorgeFest: a night to celebrate the music of George Harrison. It also coincided with a major reissue of George Harrison’s first six solo albums, released between 1968 and 1975 on […]

Photography by Tamea Agle Nico Vega have shared with us the live video premiere for their new song “No Home” from their sophomore album release Lead to Light.  The video was filmed for the At: Guitar Center with Nic Harcourt Podcast.  The podcast is a Guitar Center series showcasing performances and in-depth interviews with a variety […]

Being a Moby fan is such an easy task. The guy is so amazingly talented in different arts, he is fun in social media, and gives it all he has when doing his thing. This past Wednesday, as part of Moby’s three-show-bender at the Fonda Theatre, the house was cracking with an all-ages crowd eager to […]

Day three of Outside Lands was all about trying to see, do and eat as much as possible. Despite all the overlapping set times and big crowd (just as big, if not bigger than Saturday), I bounced around to try and catch at least a little bit of everything. Foals rocked an impressive early set, […]

Day two of Outside Lands Festival featured sets from Milo Greene, James McCartney, Youth Lagoon, The Growlers, etc. and massive crowds came in to experience it. Jurassic 5‘s bombastic set included revamped classics such as “I Am Somebody” and “Concrete Schoolyard” and had folks dancing every which way. J5 did a somber but powerful “Freedom” tribute […]

Outside Lands 2013 kicked off on Friday, August 9 at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. The crowds and clouds began to roll in heavy and the day kicked off with beers flowin’ (first stop, beer tent!) and feet dancin’ to the sweet sounds of a Grimy Goods fave, The Heavy.  Headlining the Sutro stage […]

Los Angeles group ESP treated the crowd at the Hollywood Palladium to their dreamy, psychedelic synthpop sounds when they opened for Cat Power last Thursday. Listening to them is probably the closest you can get to tripping out without the guilt. They put on a magical show with some lovely visuals that helped transform the […]

  What better way to spend a Friday night in L.A. besides dancing your ass off?  Oh, that’s right there is no better way!  The packed El Rey Theatre  for The Heavy’s headlining gig on Friday, September 7 was proof of that and I have never seen more folks dance, clap-along and have a good […]

Have you been missing some Spoon in your life? We have and just as we were wondering what the hell happened to them, we got received word of Brit Daniel’s new “supergroup,” Divine Fits. The first time we heard their song, “Would That Not be Nice,” we automatically thought — SPOON! However, “It’s a Thing Called […]

Los Angeles’ Wildcat! Wildcat! are comin’ in hot! The trio have been holdin’ down a tight residency at the Echo this entire month of August and last Monday’s show was a packed house. If you’re into bands like Passion Pit, Grizzly Bear, Yeasayer, and M83 — you need to get on one of their final […]

Geographer should be called “babeographer.” Aside from the beautiful electro dream pop these S.F. boys create, they look absolutely stunning in these photos. Were you at their free outdoor performance at Levitt Pavilion Macarthur Park?

We ventured out of our Los Angles music bubble to return to San Francisco’s Outside Lands this past weekend. Aside from that long stretch from Lands End to Twin Peaks (that was not fun after three runs), the festival was primo. The weather was a refreshing getaway from the heatwave that was hitting L.A. and […]

The Alabama Shakes are on fire and kicked off a string of L.A. shows yesterday at the  987FM Hollywood Tower penthouse! This was a private show for about 150 lucky winners and invited guests. Fans were able to witness the Shakes bring those wild blues-rockin’ soul jams under the beautiful California sky (and it was a scorcher). Check out […]

Brooklyn trio Bear in Heaven played the Echoplex last week and they rocked-the-fuck-out! It was truly a high energy set that inspired fans to get their groove on. Their 2012 album release I Love You, It’s Cool is out and these self-proclaimed “Motown-filtered through acid-house and infinite prog rock” rockers did not disappoint. We last covered Bear In Heaven at the […]

Upon arriving to the Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs show at the Echoplex on Thursday, August 9, the haze filled room was already beginning to sway with bobbing heads and swift feet.  Aussie DJ, Anna Lunoe, was laying down a soulful, lyric laden mix that was bass heavy, but pleasantly so, with touches of r&b and pop.  The brunette […]

Real Estate and Sun Araw just played an amazing set at the  Fonda Theatre last week! Did you attend the show? Check out our photo gallery of  all three bands below. Photography: Trish Reyes REAL ESTATE SUN ARAW MELTED TOYS   Click through the photo gallery below for more photos!

Minus the Bear just held a a private intimate performance at Sonos Studio for the opening of the “Bottle Tones” exhibition last Thursday, August 2. We were lucky enough to attend this special event where the band previewed songs from their new album, Infinity Overhead (August 28 on Dangerbird Records). After listening to their live performance, we can predict […]
