Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 3/12-3/18

Posted on by Kristen

It’s beginning to feel a lot like South By….evvvverywhere I go!  From last night’s dance with The Wrecks and Dreamers to this morning’s random free drink at The Coffee Bean, I might as well already be in Austin for my favorite time of the year, SXSW Music Week!  My actual trip begins tomorrow.  Per usual, I’ve listened to all the artists, compiled a 20+ page schedule of events, and packed a suitcase full of comfortable walking shoes.  Top artists to see include faves like Frank Turner, SUR, and morgxn, but I’m also looking forward to checking out a ton of new (to me) artists like Sam Fender, Bad Pony, half*alive, and Jade Bird. We shall see which new artist or band meets (or dare I say exceeds) “the Graham Bar”, so named for Lukas Graham the year that band blew everyone else out of the water.

If you’re in LA and also want to discover some great new music, go check out Findlay or Bobi Andonov playing Monday night. And if you just want to see some favorites do NOT miss the AWOLNATION, Nothing But Thieves, Irontom extravaganza coming to The Wiltern for two nights!

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 3/5-3/11

Posted on by Amanda

Well, I had planned on going out to both Emo Nites in San Diego seeing as how they were both here in the same week and I made it out to exactly zero events. It’s kind of a bummer but I’m still trying to get my sleep schedule back on track after a week off. Let me tell you, the early morning struggle is beyond real. There’s been a lot of naps too. It seems like I’m getting back into a routine so that’s promising. It’s so promising in fact that I’m headed up to LA for the Dear Boy show at Bardot. One of my favorite LA persons is moving away and I need to see her before she goes and this seemed like the perfect opportunity! I’ll be back sometime Tuesday, hopefully after some food sampling and maybe in fitness sampling? I don’t know but I’m super excited for all this fun stuff coming up. I might need a long nap after this though…

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 3/5-3/11

Posted on by Kristen

Had a bit of an adventure Friday night when, driving to First Fridays at The Natural History Museum, I got a flat tire.  It was raining, rush hour, and most auto shops were closing, but I was surprisingly calm as I called for the tow, figured out where I could go to get it fixed that night, and somehow, miraculously made it to the Natural History Museum in time for the main event, Mondo Cozmo.  I’m not sure if it was because of the car troubles or the fact that I hadn’t been to a show all week or the beautiful friends that I ran into at the event or maybe the buffalos the band was playing in front of, but the night turned into one of the most uplifting and transformative Mondo Cozmo experiences (and they are all quite good so this is saying something).

I know I’m not supposed to be going to many shows next week either, but with so many faves (Dear Boy, Dreamers/The Wrecks, Hudson Taylor, A Silent Film, HAWAI) and a plethora of highly anticipated acts (The Academic, Charlie Cunningham, Mt. Joy, Billy Raffoul) coming through, we’ll see how much I can hold to that. Either way, I anticipate a sleep-light week.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 2/26-3/04

Posted on by Kristen

One of my greatest, self-ascribed purposes in life is to introduce my people to my bands (hello reason for this calendar!).  Second to that, I also quite enjoy introducing my friends to one another.  Last night, in the unlikeliest location of Silver Spring, Maryland, worlds collided as college friends and grad school friends came together to enjoy an amazing night of music featuring my LA loves, Irontom who are currently on tour with Nothing But Thieves and AWOLNATION.  ‘Twas one for the books!

And while I would much rather continue on the road following that tour to their next location, I am, instead, on a plane heading back to Los Angeles.  Fortunately, there are plenty of shows in LA this week and while my personal show schedule is going to be slightly usurped by SXSW prep,  I’ll need to make it out at least a time or two…eyeing First Friday at The National History Museum featuring Mondo Cozmo!

I am currently en route to Tuscon. Or I will be shortly after this gets published. I’m so thankful for scheduled posts! Anyways, this post was written in a bit of a stupor after a veeeeeeerrrry long day at the barn and a packing flurry. I promise to double check everything when I arrive to make sure I didn’t miss anything. In case you’re wondering why I’m going to Tuscon, I’m visiting friends and we are having a Harry Potter party complete with feasts and movie binging. I’m very excited but almost sure I’ve forgotten something important. Since I won’t be in town this week, you’ll have to get out and enjoy the music for me!!

As a side note before I continue with the calendar, I saw on the news this past week about Tay Watts and although I never got the chance to see him play at Tin Roof, I’m still very sorry about his passing. Thoughts are with his family and friends…

Kristen Concert Calendar: 2/19-2/25

Posted on by Kristen

In a few short hours, I’ll be hitting the road to see the first of at least two (if not three) doses of the AWOLNATION, Nothing But Thieves, Irontom tour…I am taking full advantage of this holiday weekend and have flown eastward to catch up with friends and partake in another grand music adventure.  Excitement has been high due to the impending escapades as well as the unexpected musical release of The Wrecks, Panic Vertigo, EP.  SO, while doing some intense driving I’ll be able to listen to some rockin’ new tunes. Woo hoo! Vacation!

If I were in LA next week, I’d also have some tasty music options including a can’t miss charity event at The Hotel Cafe Monday night, Amy Shark Tuesday, and east coast friends, Everything Turned to Color on Saturday.  Please go enjoy for me.
