Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 1/28-1/3

Posted on January 27, 2013 by Kristen

Yesterday I was able to check “go to Big Bear” off my LA bucket list. Actually I was able to check try downhill skiing off my list as well. I was pleasantly surprised at how music-friendly the mountain was. I walked up to the resort to one of my favorite Switchfoot songs, had lunch with some Band of Skulls and Imagine Dragons, and throughout the afternoon heard snippets of live music from the various bands. It was very tempting to give up the snow and skis for a smoothie and some live tunes.

This week, quite frankly, has too many shows I “need” to attend. Honestly, there is at least one thing every night that I’m super pumped about. I am going to have to make some difficult choices, so if anyone has anything to say to sway me in a particular direction, let me know.

In the middle of a bit of a work-crisis, so I’ll keep this short. Actually this whole week has kind of been one work crisis after another…and sadly I do not see the end. I did get out Wednesday night to check out rocksters, Leogun, and I am pleased to report I have a new band love from the UK.

Sad Robot continues their Silverlake Lounge residency Monday night and then my favorite band from Culture Collide, Denmark’s terminal, has a show Thursday night also at Silverlake Lounge. And if we’re talking about can’t miss shows, Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers are making their last stop in the LA area before they go on an indefinite hiatus (one of my least favorite word combos).

New Music Tuesday 10/2/12 Featuring Three Days Grace, Hannah Georgas, and Tristan Prettyman

Posted on October 2, 2012 by Kristen

I’m hitting up the music store later. Here is what’s on the top of my list:

Three Days Grace– Transit of Venues

I cannot believe it’s been almost 10 years since the release of Three Days Grace’s self-titled album. I guess it has been awhile if the way I discovered them was one of their music videos being played on the television. Anyway, the Canadian hard rockers are back with a new CD, their first since 2009. I am listening right now and can already see this one joining the ranks of their other CDs in heavy rotation on my iPod. The band does catchy angry-rock like no other. Here’s a taste:

Hannah Georgas – Hannah Georgas

I stumbled across this one via twitter. I started listening and I just couldn’t let go. I’d say that’s a good sign. Here’s a stream of the song “Robotic” from this Canadian chanteuse.

Tristan Prettyman – Cedar + Gold

This San Diego singer got me with this video released today for her song “I Was Gonna Marry You”. It feels relevant, so I wanted to share. The rest of the album continues to showcase Prettyman’s lovely vocals in a slightly more upbeat fashion. You can stream it here http://www.facebook.com/tristanprettyman/app_367300559972921

Other albums to look into today:

Sooner the Sunset – Sooner the Sunset EP http://www.soonerthesunset.com/
Heart- Fanatic http://www.heart-music.com/
Muse- The 2^nd Law http://muse.mu/
Papa Roach- The Connection http://www.paparoach.com/
The Mountain Goats- Transcendental Youth http://www.mountain-goats.com/
The Vaccines – Come of Age http://www.thevaccines.co.uk/us/home/
Diana Krall – Glad Doll Rag http://www.dianakrall.com/splash/
Beth Orton – Sugaring Season http://beth-orton.net/
Jake Shimabukuro – Grand Ukulele http://jakeshimabukuro.com/home/
Chris Rene – I’m Right Herehttp://www.chrisreneofficial.com/
Charlie Peacock – No Man’s Landhttp://www.charliepeacock.com/
