Nick Waterhouse Takes Over SaMo Pier

Tonight is not your average twilight series performance down by Santa Monica Pier.  The Santa Ana born, Huntington Beach raised Nick Waterhouse brings his bluesy and soulful vocals and guitar right by the beach.

Making his recording debut in 2010 with the release of "Some Place" and "That Place" - the storied musical journeyman has been on a wild ride ever since.  In May 2012, he released his first full length album, Times All Gone, via Stones Throw imprint Innovative Leisure Records.  He continues to maintain a strong working relationship with the Allah-Las and is contributing to production of their sophomore record as well as his own.

Catch the Cali crooner tonight at Santa Monica Pier for FREE.  Boogaloo Assassins open.

Los Angeles Tonight (April 12, 2013)

It is admittedly a slow evening. The turn-up has no doubt left Los Angeles County and made its way to the desert. That's sort of a bummer for those of us stuck here, but you know what? It's a big town, there's always stuff to do.

So maybe hit up the Calvin Harris show at The Palladium.  He's joined by Trey Songz, The Wanted, and Zedd.





Or, if you're feeling adventurous and you want in on a little bit of that desert vibe, get in the whip and head out to Pappy and Harriet's in J-Tree to catch Nick Waterhouse.  That will be a guaranteed good experience.  However, if your pockets are thin and you don't want to make a trip out of it, then drop your finger on any number of the free options listed below.  Odds are you'll land on something fun, and if it isn't, well, that's probably because you didn't try to make it fun...

Tonight in L.A. (November 8, 2012)

-->

No shortage of good music for Los Angelenos tonight - from a slate of rock shows that we're giving tickets away to (Cat Power at The Palladium; Delta Spirit at The Wiltern; The Kin at The Roxy) to the last of the filthy beats from UZ at La Cita, its a night to get it in.

The crooning sounds of Nick Waterhouse erupt at The Constellation Room with opening licks from Boogaloo Assassins.  Also in the O.C. - Classixx, RAC, Cosmic Kids and Jerome LOL make the indie kids dance at Detroit Bar.  GottaDanceDirty crew does the same at their Versus event at The Central SAPC.  Iheartcomix fans mash out with Mount Kimbie at Icon Ultra Lounge since Los Globos is temporarily closed for events.

There is also The Kin and Act As If at The Roxy.  Want tickets?  We've got a few to dish out - just mention @theroxy and @supergoodmusic on twitter or email us at contest@supergoodmusic.com
