L.A. Concert Update

Ok it's been a while since I've updated Suburban Sound, but it's been a really slow month as far as music goes. Nothing new has grabbed my attention or has inspired me to write a review. I know that last sentence sounded really pretentious.

Anyway, while I'm waiting for some good music to come out I'll try to post weekly concert updates for the Los Angeles area.

Circa Survive lead singer Anthony Green is playing a solo show at the Fox Theater in Pomona on Saturday, February 11th. Opening for him will be indie rock band The Dear Hunter (not to be confused with Deerhunter) and Isodora Crane. Tickets are on sale now and are $18.50 + fees.

Singer-songwriters Jay Farrar and Anders Parker will be teaming up with Will Johnson (frontman of indie rock band Centro-matic) and Jim James (lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter of My Morning Jacket) to perform at The Music Box in Los Angeles on Wednesday, March 7th. Singer-songwriter Sarah Jaffe will be opening for the quartet. Tickets are on sale now and are $33.15 after fees.
