Tonight in Rock: It's All About Ukraine... and TV

Swell Season (the couple from the movie Once) stop by Jimmy Kimmel live before heading to Coahcella | Photo via MySpace

Tonight's line up at the Ukrainian Cultural Center on Melrose is a good one. Two of the bands playing tonight have been reviewed (audio samples included) by Tom Lewis here on LAist. Check out Death Set's and No Age's new albums. Yet to be reviewed, Yeasayer also completes the bill.

Since Largo on Fairfax is closing on Fairfax, shows featuring Jon Brion and other regulars are soon coming to a halt until their new space officially opens. Catch the classic space while you can.

And set your TIVOs or try to get in (good luck) to Jay Leno or Jimmy Kimmel tonight, who both host Prince and the Swell Season, respectively.
