Snow Strippers @ The Novo [10/25/24]
Photography by Ava London Amongst herds of Laker fans, USC apologists, and evening rush hour workers in downtown Los Angeles, it was hard to discern if we were heading the right way to the Snow Strippers show. Our suspicions gave way to relief when we saw concertgoers adorned in fuzzy leg warmers, anime girl T-shirts,…
Cassandra Jenkins @ Zebulon [10/14/2024]
I was high and catatonic on a summer evening, flat on my back in a cramped and overpopulated apartment on the corner of Pico and Sepulveda. The windows of my bedroom were coated with an orange glow, from the farewell shouts of a sun that I had ignored for countless months. It was 2021 and…
Anderson .Paak @ The Hollywood Bowl [9/24/24]
Photo Credits to Los Angeles Philharmonic Association Brandon Paak Anderson, better known by his stage name Anderson .Paak, brought the era of Soul Train and the golden age of the ‘70s back to life with his “Malibu Tour”.

Babe Rainbow @ The Bellwether (10/20/24)
Photos by Julia Steinhouse We took the wrong exit four times, but eventually ended up at the Bellwether. As we ventured towards the box office, we walked past three men with varying degrees of long blond hair standing outside the VIP entrance smoking cigarettes.

Porter Robinson @ Hollywood Bowl [10/11/2024]
Photos courtesy of the Hollywood Bowl Before writing his new album SMILE! :D, Porter Robinson wanted to make music that was all about having fun, with absolutely no sincerity involved. It’s an understandable move, as spending years examining your biggest insecurities and fears through song would make anyone want to take a break from honesty.…
Mannequin Pussy @ The Bellwether [10/11/24]
Photos by Chloe Gonzales After a rough day, my photographer, Chloe Gonzales, convinced me to not be a pussy and come to the Mannequin Pussy concert, which I’d been looking forward to covering for months. Since joining the Mannequin Pussy wave in 2021, I had been searching for the opportunity to attend one of their…
John Vincent III @ The Fonda (9/12/24)
(Photos by Julia Steinhouse) Sometimes, you need to go for a drive alone and listen to music that forces you to dig into the depths of your emotions– for us, that music is John Vincent III. Born and raised in Houston, Vincent’s indie-folk music is reminiscent of Bon Iver and Gregory Alan Isakov with an…
Hello Mary @ The Troubadour [10/10/24]
After chatting with Hello Mary earlier this week, I have been eagerly awaiting their takeover of the iconic Troubadour. The three-piece rock band embarked on their first headlining tour just a few days prior, right after a successful stint of shows with American Football and julie. If you love American Football’s mathy, indie rock sound…
