Wed, Sep 16 · El Rey Theatre · Miracle Mile
  • Art Deco Theater Room

Towa Bird with Mother Soki feels strongest when one part of the arrangement clicks early. The Wednesday music is more convincing when the band gives the songs a clear shape early.

Thu, Sep 17 · El Rey Theatre · Miracle Mile
  • Art Deco Theater Room

Daniel Avery is built around movement, bass, and a room that wants to dance. This direct Thursday set has enough musical identity to rise above the easy defaults.

A. Chal with Loyal LobosNext few nightsIndie
Fri, Sep 18 · El Rey Theatre · Miracle Mile
  • Art Deco Theater Room

A Chal with Loyal Lobos leans on a clear groove or melody, with the rest of the band adding texture around it. The Friday music is more convincing when the band gives the songs a clear shape early.
