Local Music Nation

I had a night out last week! It was not for live music, but a night at the drive-in to see a movie was a welcomed change of pace. The movie, the Robin Williams gem from the 90s, Hook, magically transported me back to my youth.  I hadn’t seen the film in years, but other than the first 15-20 minutes, I knew every beat.  The best part of the evening, however, was very probably experiencing the long-forgotten routine of the late-night drive home. I hadn’t realized how much I missed that time for reflection, for music, and for the opportunity to experience a traffic free Los Angeles.

Musical highlights from last week included a double set from SUR, Glen Phillips singing a Toad the Wet Sprocket jam, and George Barnett whose song “Make It Rain” is my current musical obsession. Next week, I look forward to tuning in for the Virtual Musikfest 2020 and seeing Frank Turner reunite with The Sleeping Souls!

Last week was a first for me. Instead of watching livestreams, I was in them! Every night I joined the High Voltage team to review and discuss all that was San Diego Comic Con 2020 (at home edition). The livesteam was appreciated because it gave me some of what I was missing from in person Comic Con which was largely connecting with other people. What’s the point of watching 10 panels in a day if you can’t talk about what you learned?!? We even had some fun celebrity guests including naturopath Dr. DJ Simms and actor Kevin Bigley (Upload). My summary? Comic Con 2020 was similar to all of these music livestream events. Nice to have, but not quite the real thing.

Speaking of music livestreams, Biffy Clyro announced a big one for August 15^th.  Knowing my favorite band, this will be something special, so I look forward to that.

I’m sensing another shift in the live stream culture. We went from random Instagram pop ups and big fundraisers filmed in the artists’ homes to a somewhat reoccurring schedule of online tours and Facebook or YouTube gigs (with slowing improving technology).  Now, I’m seeing an uptick in the staged full band shows filmed at a studio or venue.  Although none of this really satisfies my cravings, I enjoy watching the evolution of this new normal and I’m glad that music is still finding its way out there.  Reading news stories about how venues are closing down for good or speculating that live shows with audiences won’t come back until 2022 can feel a bit defeating, but I hope everyone is hanging in and appreciates my attempts to find the choice virtual events.

My favorites from last week include the first Jared & The Mill full band set, Tony Lucca doing some TFDI covers (gosh I miss Matt Duke!) and getting to check China Bears off my “to see” list (go check out their song, “Sunday”).

Next week will be another odd one for me. It’s San Diego Comic Con time and this year will most certainly be unlike any other I’ve experienced. I’m trying to keep an open mind but I can’t imagine how the magic and camaraderie and general craziness of SDCC could possibly be captured in their virtual experience. If you want to see my reaction to it all, I’ll be recapping the event nightly with my High Voltage family on YouTube. Click here to subscribe if you want to know when we go live.

Now that July 4^th has come and gone, I hope it brings an end to the nightly fireworks. I was disappointed by the lack of online music events for the holiday but walking around my neighborhood provided a surprising assortment of instrumentals including a jazz trumpet, a group of string instruments, and what sounded like an organ all coming from inside various homes. There was also the garage rock band playing covers from (shocker!) a garage, but I scurried quickly past that one and the gathering crowd.

Next week, we’ve got some exciting UK festivals including the week long Sucker Fest (see Sucker FB and IG for details) and Saturday’s Finsperry Festival featuring quite a few of the up and coming British bands I’ve discovered in this lockdown.

Today I drove to one of my fave LA neighborhoods, Little Tokyo, and walked around.  It’s funny how something I did a year ago without even thinking now feels like a grand adventure.  I walked around truly appreciating the sights and sounds (and boba establishments).  I couldn’t bring myself to walk past one of my favorite venues, The Moroccan Lounge…too sad. I will say that one positive thing that has come from these months of solitude is an appreciation for the smaller moments of life. I suppose that’s what happens when one slows down.

My soundtrack to this week’s small moment phase has been provided by new music from Mondo Cozmo and livestreams from Glen Philips, Sam Calver, and the final Friday Night Quarantunes with The Vocal Few (The Classic Crime’s Matt and his wife Kristie). Speaking of final quarantine shows, next week we have the last offerings from Freya Ridings and Frank Turner.

This weekend, I tuned in to the Tiny Changes Tiny Gigs event. After tearfully watching Frank Turner’s set of Frightened Rabbit songs, I sat in that emotion and watched the Tiny Changes documentary released last year around the time of the Tiny Changes: A Celebration of The Midnight Organ Fight album. Ben Gibbard opens the doc with a poignant message about our perception of “good” music and how, after years of being a music fan, new music doesn’t hit quite the same and it becomes increasingly difficult to find music that moves us.  This increasingly difficult quest is not made easier by the lack of live music (the only real way to determine the quality of a band). In lieu of the shows, if you have any new band recommendations, send them my way. In the meantime, livestream recommendations as follows:
