We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again: the ethereal concerts that are held at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery never cease to disappoint. This time around the guests of honor at the evening soirée amongst the tombstones was dream-pop duo Beach House—and a more perfect marriage of sound and atmosphere could never have been […]

There was something wistfully poetic about the Arctic Monkeys making their return to Hollywood via a blistering sunset serenade amidst a collection of stone mausoleums in one of the city’s oldest cemeteries. Fronted by the irrefutably suave Alex Turner, the band has always exuded a certain melancholic sexiness, yet their performance at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery […]

Los Angeles just can’t seem to get enough of Ty Segall. The multi-faceted human is pretty much in high demand, always. Whether with the Muggers, GØGGS or solo, there isn’t a show Segall doesn’t sell out. Just a couple weeks ago he headlined The Smell’s benefit show at the Teragram Ballroom and it quickly sold-out. […]

Nestled in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, the very quaint Masonic Lodge flooded in with listeners of all ages on an extraordinary Tuesday evening.

Tame Impala bassist and backup vocalist Cam Avery will headline a show at the Masonic Lodge at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery on Thursday, April 7. The Aussie musician is a jack-of-all-trades, having served as a founding member of POND as well as The Growl. There’s a certain lounge-ish aspect to Avery’s solo stuff, as evidenced […]

After seeing them play at a handful of festivals this year, I was convinced: Tame Impala was meant to be seen outdoors. Thursday night, the Australian psych-rockers headlined their first of two nights at the renowned Hollywood Forever Cemetery and it couldn’t have gone much better. A sheet hung in front of the stage and […]

From their early days debuting their music at small LA venues such as The Echo and Silverlake Lounge, Tame Impala have grown into an unstoppable psychedelic force to be reckoned with.
