This weekend I certainly felt the holiday spirit. Friday night got the ball rolling with the always fabulous HoHoHotel Cafe Holiday party where I saw a few favorites and discovered some great new talent (Freddie & Francine have moved to the top of my must see list). Saturday, after a full day of learning at The YouBloom LA Conference (bookmark this event for next year!), I drove down to San Diego to see Dear Boy’s debut at The Casbah and am now about to head to The Forum for night 2 of KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas. To say it’s been a full and exciting weekend would be an understatement.

Next week, the holiday lull begins to set in so get out and see some shows while you can. Top pick for me would be Friday night at The Hotel Cafe with Anthony Beliveau (of The Crash Kings) and friends.

Getting through the list of announced SXSW artists has been somewhat slow going, but I’m glad I made it to Sara Hartman’s name before she came to town last week.  The Berlin-based artist inspired at Bardot Monday night. There is not much better than seeing a great new artist for the first time…

Next week is a busy one. All of the holiday shows and festivals are already making my schedule challenging, but then Dear Boy announces a West Coast tour that threatens all previously made plans.  The one show written in black ink in my calendar is Monday night when The Shadowboxers make their return to Los Angeles and play It’s A School Night at Bardot.

Now that’s it’s officially the Christmas season, I’ve started working more fervently on my end of year music mix. Based on yesterday, however, I’m worried I won’t have enough time to get it done. I was debating which Dark Waves song I wanted to include and then ended up listening to my Dark Waves EP on repeat all day…and never quite reached a conclusion on song choice.

This week, a surprising number of bands are giving us options by playing multiple days. The Dandy Warhols, Gary Clark Jr., Amiee Mann and Ted Leo, and Johnnyswimm are all playing two or three times! How considerate! My show pick, however, will go to Thursday night at The Troubadour.
