  2. Horse Feathers and Y La Bamba Give LA a Taste of Portland Horse Feathers Everything about last night’s show at The Echo was Portland-esque, from the intimate, nondescript venue; to the good (and cheap) tap selection and flannel clad band and audience members. If I hadn’t known better, I would’ve sworn that...

He is a fictitious manager/booking agent that three struggling musicians and college classmates created to help effectively promote their individual endeavors.

  2. Artist of the Week: Silversun Pickups For the past half-decade, Silversun Pickups have brought their brand of fuzzed out, droned guitar rock to the masses. The quartet has been one of the best new bands to come from the indie hotbed of Silver Lake in Los...
  3. Sleeper Agent and Ben Kweller Rule the El Rey Alright, I’m gonna come out and say it: Sleeper Agent is hot.  They’ve recently released their first kick-ass album, Celebrasion, they just played Coachella, they’re in the middle of touring their sweet Kentucky faces off, and, thanks to the band’s...
