Tonight in L.A. (February 22, 2013)

--> -->

Amazing how the week flies by in Los Angeles.  To help get you amped for Friday night - check out Viceroy's remix of "This Is How We Do It"

If you want to dance to music like that - head to LURE for Private Label Fridays, where Treasure Fingers throws down along with Oliver and Nick Catchdubs.  For a little filthier bass go a little north of Hollywood Blvd. to Avalon for Jack Beats, Carnage, Whiite and more.

Perhaps you're into bass, but not about those trap beats, in which case the famous Victor Wooten (of Bela Fleck & The Flecktones) at El Rey Theatre might be your sonic treat.  For other amazing musicianship - consider Jon Brion at Largo.

Those looking for the edgy indie bands might want to check out Fartbarf and Breakfast at The Smell.  For the next hot indie pop/jazz, check out Palter Ego and Monte Mar at El Cid.  Westsiders looking to drink and party should consider The Dead Ships at The Central SAPC.   

Other notable shows include Kid Ink continuing to celebrate his rap life at Yost Theater, Coheed & Cambria at The Wiltern and The White Buffalo at Troubadour.  Full list of shows after the videos...

Tonight in L.A. (January 25, 2013)

Get your weekend #turntup - cause its Friday and the music is cruising through LA.  From the freshly signed sounds of Kid Ink at Key Club to the jams of Nicki Bluhm & The Gramblers at The Constellation Room - there is a lot to aurally digest.





If you want to jazz up your night - Stanley Clarke Band plays at Catalina Bar and Grill, but the funkier jams will be heard at The Mint during the NAMM Jam with Leo Nocentelli (Funky Meters), Stanton Moore and Bill Dickens with special guests.

12th Planet, AC Slater and Kelley Dean bring some bass and wobbly filth to the floors of Avalon, while Crookers make the crowd toss and turn at The Observatory. 





Indie westsiders should check out El Ten Eleven and Races at The Central SAPC, and for other good music Cody ChestnuTT at Troubadour and Jon Brion at Largo would be good choices too.  For a full list of tonight's shows in LA, look below:
