TONIGHT IN LOS ANGELES: EL PERRO DEL MAR + OTHERS

The wonderfully enchanting voice and presence that is Sweden's EL PERRO DEL MAR closes up her North American tour with PETER, BJORN & JOHN tonight at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood. We fell in love with her back on Future Sounds 24, but she continues to release gorgeous records that not enough people appreciate. Throw in the PARSON REDHEADS and HECUBA and you have yourself an amazing evening at the Hotel.

If that's not your bag, there is plenty to choose from this evening, as Spaceland have our friends DIOS playing on THE HAPPY HOLLOWS residency night that also includes buzzin' REAL ESTATE and ONE TRICK PONY. Free.

The show with the most steam is probably going on at Echo, where FANFARLO and FREELANCE WHALES perform. Both bands are like runaway trains right now in terms of upward mobility, so you have some decisions tonight.
