The heat was turned up, way up, for the final Chinatown Summer Nights on Saturday, but bands and fans alike soldiered through, with Dream Machines, Zealyn and the New Electric Sound closing out with intrepid, danceable sets. Earlier on the LA Weekly Live Music Stage, it was Elle Belle performing songs from their 2016 full-length, the Americans rocking songs from their new album (out next month),  Chilean songbird Francisca Valenzuela brightening up the afternoon in two languages and Saint Cecilia sweating through their sublime harmonies. Did we mention it was hot?

The Live Music Stage returns to Chinatown on Saturday, Oct. 7, for the annual Mid-Autumn Moon Festival, and Oct. 8, for the annual CicLAvia Heart of L.A. event. Stay tuned for lineup announcements.
