This was the post that was supposed to be telling everyone about all the great sets I caught at SXSW. I tried to make a SXSW Top 10 artists list, but it was too depressing. I did listen to most all the announced showcasing artists, however, and made a Spotify playlist of the ones I wanted to check out, so if you’re looking to discover something new, here you go!

There are no concerts going on with the city of LA (and hopefully most of the world) under lockdown. It’s a crazy time for us all but many artists have decided to take their performances online. There have been SO many live stream shows pop up on Instagram (IG), Facebook (FB), YouTube (YT) and more. And since they are happening all over the globe, you can find a good show just about any time of the day/night!

My live stream show strategy has been logging into my platform of choice (for me, that’s Facebook), and seeing who is currently live.  I’ve caught quite a few artists that way (The Talbott Brothers, Jewel, Tony Lucca, Nadia Reed to name a few).  There are also artists like Mary Chapin Carpenter, Glorious Sons and The Franklin Electric whose daily song posts keep me going! My favorite virtual run-in was with one of my absolutely favorite artists from Philadelphia, Paul Keen, who never comes to LA. I’m thinking this could be a great way to discover more local artists!

For those looking for more advance planning, here’s what I’ve come across. I’m sure there are so many more (all times in PST are my best estimation…double check for exact times)

Well, it took away my SXSW and then my baseball and now my friends and my live music. This coronavirus has really been…a challenge. It’s my birthday week and I’d say my plans have been whittled down to a large boba and sitting on the beach with a book, but it will probably rain, I somehow lost the book I was reading, and who knows how much longer the boba shops will stay open.

Speaking of things being open, while many of LA’s music venues have shut down for at least the rest of the month, a few of the smaller rooms still seem to be hosting shows. This is not a recommendation to go out, simply a compilation of choice local shows that still seem to be a go. If going out, be safe and be sure to check social media day of to make sure events are still happening.  I’m seeing many artists announcing virtual concerts so what I would recommend is using your extra time at home to support your favorite artists in that way or discover some new ones! Maybe I’ll post a playlist…

2020 has been rough! These last couple of weeks in particular have been difficult to get through, culminating with the cancellation of my favorite week of the year at SXSW. I am doing my best to focus on the silver lining which is that instead of Austin, I will be spending my birthday week in Florida watching my baseball team at Spring Training (something I have never done because of the timing with SXSW).  I guess I will be watching the next generation of baseball players rather than sampling the next musical breakouts…

Last week wore me down and by Friday I didn’t have much left. Then, I open my computer to see what new music has been introduced to the world and I spy a new single from Biffy Clyro (fave band alert!).  I press play on “Instant History” and suddenly my world’s problems melt away and for a little over 3 minutes, everything is great.  Between the Biffy Clyro single, Badflower finally releasing “Move Me”, and the Alanis Morrisette version of “Smiling” from the Jagged Little Pill musical, I’d say it was New Music Friday for the win!

This week in LA music seems equally bountiful with top bands and artists (Colony House, Jared & The Mill, Patrick Droney) as well as a slew of up and comers (Tall Heights, The Amazons, Jax Anderson, etc.).  I hope to see everyone out at some shows:

The most unexpected frustration about not being able to speak is feeling rude when you’re out in public. Just going to the store offers a series of opportunities to say, “thank you” or “excuse me” and when you can’t physically utter words, it feels impolite. I am currently on day 3.5 of some sort of laryngitis that has rendered me mute.  I am very grateful for self-checkouts and only wish my fave boba place had one so I could order a hot honey lemon drink w/ jellies without using some sort of awkward note.

I hope my voice comes back for next week because we have some hootin’ and hollerin’ to do Friday night at The Viper Room as The Shakers reunite for one night only! Woot!

Band Love Alert: I first saw Canadian band, Boniface, a couple years ago at SXSW. I was instantly captivated by this quiet, introspective presence whose songs would burst forth with an emotional intensity and swelling pop/rock melodies. I couldn’t look away! Two years later, Micah Visser (AKA Boniface) and their band is releasing a self-titled debut album THIS FRIDAY! I’ve been listening somewhat obsessively and last week had the fortuitous opportunity to attend an event showcasing artists from Manitoba and featuring Boniface!  The new music is a logical (and satisfying) expansion from what I heard two years ago, and the live show has an unexpected confidence that increases the palpable emotion as well as the odds of a spontaneous mid-show dance party.  If you need an advanced listen, check out recent single “Oh My God”, or my favorite song off the album, “Wake Me Back Up” and on Friday, give yourself a Valentine’s Day treat and listen to Boniface.

Leading up to Friday, we have a few other shows celebrating new releases including JP Saxe at The Echo and The Lone Bellow’s two nights at The Troubadour. For Valentine’s Day we have two evenings at The Peppermint Club with Evan + Zane celebrating both the lovers (Friday) and anti-lovers (Saturday).
