Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 7/5-7/11

Posted on by Kristen

Last week I was listening to a promising young artist, Bailey Zimmerman, do his first livestream. He’s a country kid but wants to do a cover inspired by his mother who is a “real rocker”. When I hear this, I’m expecting him to cover some rock band famous in the 70’s or 80’s, the type a real rock mom might favor. But no, Bailey launches into 3 Doors Down “Here Without You” and it hits me that we now live in a world where emerging artists are influenced by their parents’ music from the early 00’s. Let that one sink in…it’s taking me a minute.  

Another thing that’s going to take me a minute to adjust to is the return of live concerts.  The Hotel Cafe opens back up this week and as anxious as I am to return to one of my favorite spaces, I’m also a bit apprehensive about how comfortable I’m going to feel. In honor of this grand return, I’m (maybe somewhat optimistically) going to switch the calendar back over to focus on the local LA shows. I’ll also mark some of my top streaming options as I’m not ready to give those up quite yet.

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 6/7-6/13

Posted on by Kristen

Last week I was invited to a studio to see a live music performance. I feel like that last part bears repeating…live music performance! First show in nearly a year and a half featured Israeli popstar (and powerhouse vocalist) Ninet! There were technical difficulties, awkward social interactions, and more people than I felt comfortable being thrown in a room with…but there were also hugs, inspiring conversations…and 2-3 songs in the music hit and I was filled with ALL the emotion. I remembered why I do what I do, going to shows every night, discovering new bands and meeting people who share the same love of the music. I can’t wait to do this again!!   

It will be a few more weeks before in person shows become more the norm. In the meantime, I’m looking forward to streams from Newton Faulkner, Brian Fallon, JJ Wilde and more:

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar

Posted on by Amanda

Can I confess something to the two of you who read this? I ended up missing live music way more than I anticipated. So much so, that I already have tickets to three events and will shortly be adding a fourth to my list! I’m so excited to see these bands live again and I’m sure these shows are going to be super cathartic for everyone involved! Insert some squealing *here*

Anyways, seeing as how I’m not posting weekly streams like Kristen, I’m just going to keep updating this massive calendar list. Posts might not come every week unless I have something new to add. So, don’t worry I didn’t run away. I just don’t want to interrupt the live streams posts with the same calendar list. Buy concert tickets! All my love. ~ A

Posted on by Kristen

The only thing I really remember from last week is the lower back pain inspired by nearly two weeks of 12+ hour work days.  I did celebrate something this weekend, the grand opening of a new boba shop in Koreatown (Tiger Sugar). I was Order #1 on Saturday and was rewarded with an oversized t-shirt that I promptly converted into some sort of dress that I will never have occasion to wear.

Hi All!!

I’m alive. I hope you’re alive too. I know it’s been a while since I’ve been here and to be honest, I wasn’t sure I was going to come back. I mean, the whole landscape of music consumption has changed!! I figured you all would be following your favorite bands and would be able to stay more up to date than I ever could. On top of that, we have my other half totally killing it with her calendar. However, a light has begun to emerge at the other side of all the madness and the time felt right to return. So, without further ado, here’s what’s coming to San Diego so far (!!!)

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 5/17-5/23

Posted on by Kristen

This week marked my grand post-vaccination re-entry into the world…and it’s been exhausting! I went to Trader Joe’s, saw a movie screening, attended in-person bookclub, and traveled to San Diego (twice!) to see friends and go to a couple baseball games. I also feel like I may have penciled in my first in-person concert, The Silent Comedy playing outdoors at PetCo Park in June.

All of the driving was mostly accompanied by my listening to the delightful A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik (an audio book), but I also snuck in music highlighted by The Pale White’s Infinite Please, Saint Motel’s It’s All Happening and everything Evanescence after a stream last week reminded me of how amazing Amy Lee’s vocals are.

Next week, Paste Magazine is doing another week-long series of streams from Nashville and will feature artists such as Nicole Atkins, Brent Cobb, Dylan LeBlanc, David Cook, and Cordovas!

Kristen’s Remote Streaming Concert Calendar: 5/10-5/16

Posted on by Kristen

This past week, Twin Atlantic celebrated the 10-year anniversary of the release of their album, Free. There was a listening party, a previously unreleased Making Of Documentary, and some limited edition merch.  To commemorate one of my personal favorite albums, I purchased a “You Don’t Get Better Than Me Tea” mug for my ever-growing (and heavily utilized) collection of mugs.  It felt great to spend some time back in 2011! I’ve been living in the past a lot lately, musically and otherwise. I’m not sure if this is a consequence of the pandemic and the lack of live shows (my favorite vehicle for music discovery), or simply a product of my advancing age…

But don’t worry, I’m still doing my best to find you all the great rising bands. With the release of the deluxe edition, this week I was pulled back into the delicious soundscape of Rightfield’s debut album, Rightfield, One while also enjoying new singles from Paris Youth Foundation, Luna Bay, and Matilda Mann who I heard for the first time last week at the It’s a School Night showcase.

Next week’s streams feature Charlotte Cardin at Cover Nation, Part 2 of The Milk Carton Kids at The Troubadour and The Great Escape Festival has an online component (and stellar lineup).
