Last weekend was the rock fest (SSMF). This weekend I had the pleasure of attending Way Over Yonder at The Santa Monica Pier. The event is put on by the people who do the Newport Folk Festival and was headlined by the likes of Jackson Browne and Lucinda Williams. I’m still processing all of my pictures, but a full recap of the event will be posted shortly. For a preview, my three new must see acts: Bootstraps, Joe Pug, and The Lone Bellow.
Next week, so many great musical options. Lots of favorites in the mix: Sir Sly, Meg Myers, K.Flay, Irontom, but don’t miss out on Danish singer-songwriter, Tina Dico playing two sets at The Hotel Cafe Thursday night.
