Santa Monica, CA- On August 24th, KCRW will broadcast the taping of an intimate performance by The War On Drugs held at Apogee Session 8/5/17. With Adam Granduciel and company set to release their next album, “A Deeper Understanding”, the following day, the timing couldn’t be more perfect. I remember my “Aha!” moment with the The […]
Echo Park, CA- Monday July 24, an uncharacteristically humid evening for Los Angeles, found a line wrapped around the unassuming entrance to the gritty Echo night club on Sunset Blvd in Echo Park. Though an hour before doors were set to open, those lined up buzzed with the anticipation of seeing the only child of Beatles […]
Los Angeles, CA- It always make me happy to see a recording artist make progress with their live performance. I can’t remember when it was, but I first caught SPELLES a little while ago at The Echo … and the quality of her performance at the Hammer Museum for KCRW’s Rebel Rebel summer concert series was […]
Echo Park, CA- The Los Angeles based band (via New Orleans) Moon Honey concluded their month long residency at The Echoplex on 6/26/17, and my my my …. it was glorious to behold. I had gotten myself acclimated to their musical stylings by listening to the tracks that are available on their Soundcloud account, but it’s one […]
Echo Park, CA- Miya Folick. All I can say is, “Damn … that gal was fierce.” I really didn’t know too much about her or her music, but I think it’s safe to say that I was pretty blown away with her performance opening for Moon Honey at The Echoplex on June 26, 2017. This […]
Los Angeles, CA- Ever since 2014, Smoke Season had been on my radar to catch live. On the final night of Moon Honey’s month long residency at The Echo, I was finally able to catch Gabrielle Wortman and Jason Rosen’s band. Better late than never, and it was worth the wait. Their brand of electronic […]
New York, NY- Over the years Blurred Culture has seen a lot of bands. When we go out to shows we have no expectations. So when a band comes a long like Bent Knee to say we are really fucking excited is an not an oversell. I was standing at the show with my jaw […]
The more I see and hear this band play, the more I dig them. I don’t know how to say it other than, “God damnit, I f’ing love this band”. Not only does their music kick ass, but there’s something about this band when they’re on stage that draws me to them. Each player is skilled […]

Echo Park, CA- Ramonda Hammer has been busy in the studio this year, and the band dropped the lead single for their upcoming EP of the same name, “Destroyers”, earlier this month. “Destroyers” musically embodies everything that made me fall in love with the band to begin with. From its dirty dissonent guitar licks which gives the tracks a heavy […]
