Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 9/5-9/11

I made a great discovery today. If you take a cup of ice at The Coffee Bean, add whole milk and their vanilla powder, and mix intensely, you have a drink I will be calling essence of milkshake. As milkshakes are out of my price range at the moment, this makes me quite happy. I may have skipped…

My show list this week has quite a few names that bring up great memories and make me smile. As for my show pick, might I recommend Arkivist playing Friday night at The Satellite. Because I’m sure that name rings zero bells, I’ll mention that the trio of musicians used to be called Rags & Ribbons. I don’t really know what to expect from this new project, but I’m looking forward to finding out!

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 8/29-9/4

This email is brought to you with a view of the water in Summerland, CA.  This weekend I’ve been able to see dear friends, discover my new favorite gummies in the shape of sea creatures, renew my love of hiking and extreme hatred for the smell of brewing coffee, eat tacos, and watch the sun set over the ocean.  I opted out of some of the more Bacchus-inspired events of this bachelorette party weekend in order to sit in front of my computer and get some work done.  I’m taking a break from said work to put together my musical game-plan for next week. Looks a little like this:

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 8/15-8/21

The month of August is just flying by. It’s odd because I feel like I’ve spent most of the month sitting in front of my computer working. I guess time goes by faster when you aren’t having fun??  I did find enormous amounts of enjoyment today in watching golf on TV.  I think of the Olympic sports I’ve watched, golf might be my favorites this year. It’s certainly the only time I actually yelled out loud at the TV.

We’ve got several bands next week coming in from the east coast that I would highly suggest looking into.  Jimmy Gnecco and Mainland both come to The Hotel Cafe on Monday and Wyland play a couple shows at Silverlake Lounge and The Satellite. We’ve also got Echo Park Rising this weekend which was a great event last year. This year, Dear Boy plays Friday night and since I’ve been listening to their new EP nonstop, I’m particularly looking forward to that set.

Here’s what else I’d recommend:

 

Monday: An Acoustic Evening w/ Jimmy Gnecco at The Hotel Cafe (7pm)
ALSO: Mainland acoustic set at The Hotel Cafe second stage (10pm)
ALSO: Nico Yaryan residency w/ Gold Star, Korey Dane FREE at Bootleg Bar (8:30)
ALSO: Lo Moon FREE at The Echo (8:30)
ALSO: Zipper Club residency FREE at The Satellite (9pm)
ALSO: Charming Liars at The Troubadour (7pm)
ALSO: Hey Violet at The Echoplex (7pm)
ALSO: The Sunset Jam FREE at The Viper Room (9pm)
ALSO Monday Monday at The Hotel Cafe second stage (8pm)

 

Tuesday: Wyland at Silverlake Lounge (8pm)
ALSO: Bones Muhroni residency FREE at The Hi Hat (8pm)
ALSO: Passenger at The Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery (8:30)
