I was blown away by the response to The Wrecks this weekend at the Wiltern. The band has come a long way in the last decade and to see a room that large full of love and dancing was quite remarkable…I think everyone got a bit teary-eyed. The entire evening felt like a turning point for my beloved band and I can’t wait to see where they go from here!

As for where I’m going, out to find a new rock band to follow around I suppose.  I’ve got high hopes for Bruvvy who play Gold-Diggers Saturday night, but show pick of the week goes to Arizona songsmith Wheelwright, in town coming off a recently released new album that must be heard live.

It was another magical night at The Hotel Cafe last week when I went to see Kids in America and ended up bearing witness to a pop-up James Bay acoustic set. Turns out the British crooner is (almost) as in love with the venue as I am. He was certainly at home for storyteller hour where the room was treated to anecdotes in addition to songs spanning his discography, including deeper cuts and audience requests. It was a night to remember!
