Local Music Nation

Work has been consuming my life lately which is why I was particularly grateful last week when work sponsored a live music experience, a trip to see Moulin Rouge! The Musical at the Pantages.  I found the production fun and the added songs entertaining (Harold Zidler singing Sia’s “Chandelier” for the win!), but it didn’t quite live up to the movie, an all-time fave for me.

Next up at the Pantages is Jagged Little Pill which is one of the best musicals I have ever seen on Broadway so I will have to get myself to that one. If you, like me, are a big Alanis Morrisette fan, next week Evan + Zane start a residency at the Bourbon Room with a night of Alanis Morrissette covers that can’t be missed. I’m also thrilled to see one of my top SXSW picks, Daysormay, returning to LA to open for Tessa Violet and Will Joseph Cook at the El Rey Saturday night.

Last week I was treated to a fabulous cover of Beyonce’s “Halo” from OneRepublic (Ryan Tedder co-wrote the hit). This song reminds me of two things; 1- trying (and failing) to get out of the Dodger’s Stadium parking lot after my first baseball game in Los Angeles and 2- a beloved band, Harper Blynn whose cover of this song makes frequent appearances on my playlists to this day.

Next week we’ve got some top tier nostalgia shows, nostalgia for ten years ago! 2011/12 was when I was raving about the Head and the Heart’s SXSW performance in a bicycle shop, spending time weekly with Semi Precious Weapons (Justin Tranter’s band), Andy Clockwise was a must-see event and Warpaint was still riding high off their debut album. Those were good years!

Mostly importantly, a new festival was just getting started in the Echo Park area called Echo Park Rising. This fest ended up being one of the best for discovering local music as well as the shops and restaurants that pepper the area which became one of my go-to neighborhoods. Echo Park Rising is coming back this year as Echo Farce Rising. It’s a bit of a reduced format, but still a great opportunity to check out some local bands.
