Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 12/6-12/12

Spotify tells me that my most listened to artist last year was Canadian rock duo, Cleopatrick. This does not surprise me as their album, Bummer, is worth many a listen. Next week, I’m heading to Chicago to both experience winter and see Cleopatrick one most time this year!

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 11/29-12/5

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I spent most of my long weekend recovering from my covid booster, but I also managed to score an excess amount of pie (apparently pie sales were low this year), go for a hike, and help the police pursue a criminal because, for some reason, the guy decided to stop his thieving to talk to me about his bookclub.

What I am most thankful for are the live shows, which feel more precious this year than ever, especially as shows and tours continue to be cancelled (notice the absence of The Hunna on this week’s schedule).

The big excitement next week is the return of one of the best showcases for music discovery, It’s a School Night, to its home at Bardot in Hollywood. This week the showcase features a couple of my favorite up and coming artists, Windser and John-Robert.

Kristen here!

Amanda’s weird back pain turned herniated disc has evolved into a hospital stay and last-minute surgery, so she’s asked me to post for her this week. This is all good news, really as it means Amanda will be back up and walking (and then show-going) sooner than originally anticipated.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 11/22-11/28

Between Aurora’s headline show at The Mayan and a Sandra Oh Q&A following a screening of The Chair, it’s been a week of inspiring women. It’s always refreshing to see people use their talent to spark conversation and community in a way where camaraderie is not built at the expense of others (looking at you politicians, businessmen, and football…).

Thanksgiving next week means time to start working on my End of Year Music Mix! One band that is sure to make the cut, The Record Company, is playing Teragram Ballroom Monday night. It will be a fun reminder of that time I played “Coachella party goer” in the music video for “How High”.

Well, it turns out that weird back pain I’ve been having is due to a messed up disc in my back. Accordingly, I’m not going to be able to attend shows while I take the time I need to fully heal. It’s a complete drag but I want to be able to rock out in the future, so I best behave myself. Sigh.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 11/15-11/22

Last week, my show-going might suggest some sort of multiple personality disorder. Monday was Grady Strange and Leslie Stevens, Tuesday took me from Billy Raffoul to Betcha, and Wednesday had me pumped up with Boston Manor and then brought down with David Ramirez. I alllmost went from singer songwriters to Reignwolf on Friday, but the timing didn’t quite work out, so I merely did the jump from country to alt-pop.  People often ask me what kind of music I like, and I don’t really have a good answer to that one.

One thing I will say is that I like checking out new music and next week, we’ve got Dar Williams, Aurora, Young Rising Sons, Charlotte Cardin, and Inhaler, all having released excellent new albums this year!

As for the rest:

Monday: Wrabel at the Grammy Museum (7:30)  
ALSO: Passenger at the Cathedral Sanctuary at Immanuel Presbyterian (8pm)
ALSO: Aimee Mann at Largo (8pm)
ALSO: Lukas Nelson & Promise of The Real at the El Rey (8pm)
ALSO: The Black Angels at the Fonda Theatre (9pm)

ALSO: Dar Williams at the Hotel Cafe (6:30)
ALSO: Zach Day at the Hotel Cafe second stage (6:30)
ALSO: Lukas Nelson & Promise of The Real at the El Rey (8pm)
ALSO: Watkins Family Hour at Largo (8:30)

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 11/15-11/21

Confession time: I made it to no shows last week. I’ve been having a low key injury that decided to become a big deal this week. I’m also on some muscle relaxers right now so if things are a little askew or I’ve missed things, it’s the drugs. Haha. Hopefully, I can get some rest and come back to show going soon. The postponement of a few bands has made things easier on me. Sigh.
