‣ Black Lips, Night Beats and Beach Party team up for a raucous night at the El Rey Theatre.
‣ Matt Costa’s self-titled fourth album, which came out in Feburary, has been garnering all kinds of praise and the Long Beach native plays the Troubadour tonight, supported by Carly Ritter and Sam Outlaw.
‣ And Har Mar Superstar [see Tuesday’s post] brings his newfound retro soul to the Bootleg Bar, where the Virgins and COLOR.
