With the closing of the Hotel Cafe, I’ve lost my go to Monday and Tuesday night activities. Monday Monday will have one final blow out party next week to celebrate the end of an era at the Hotel Cafe and I’m not quite sure what is next for Lucas Flood’s Showcase (he’s booking for SoFar sounds, but that is not quite the same…). I remember the days when Monday night was THE night for music showcases and discovery. I really hope someone will fill this gap on my calendar. Mondays are hard enough without something to look forward to at the end of them!

As for the rest of the week, we’ve got some can’t miss acts from overseas (Billie Marten, Wonderhorse, Yard Act, King Fishr), Judy Collins’ final LA show, and The Wrecks celebrate 10 years of their debut EP with a special show in Pomona. Since this EP is also quite special to me, I will be making the trek if anyone is interested in a carpool…

I am in Malibu today for a SoFar Sounds gig – part of the Malibu Wine Series. This feels like a good way to take a deep breath before another crazy work week – on the other end of which we have Zane Carney bringing his guitar licking, (hopefully) new songs, and plenty of stories to the Hotel Cafe. Zane has been busy doing a stint on The Voice Romania (!?), touring with Foster the People, co-founding a new music platform and playing gigs on the other coast. He’s just come off a mini tour with Evan + Zane (his duo project with Evan Rachel Wood) and now we’ve finally got him back in LA!

I opted out of any 4^th of July revelry this year although I was sad to turn down an opportunity to see Smashing Pumpkins, Chris Stapleton, and Queen Latifah and I did miss my traditional walk along the beach watching fireworks up and down the coast…

Musically (or musically adjacent?), I think what stuck with me most from last week’s showgoing was a moment during the Whale Songz set when Annika Bennett & Olivia Barton were discussing the origins of a song that reflects the moment along the path of any strong female friendship when the women confide in each other their respective history of sexual assault/abuse. This hit. Check out “Marbles” by Whale Songz and check out next week’s list of my recommended shows:
