Tonight contemporary classical composer Nico Muhly will be performing at the Walt Disney Music Hall in Downtown. Local folk rockers Whispertown 2000 (LAist Interview, Review, #2) and the Broken West (LAist Review) are poised to play at the Echo for this month's edition of Kidrockers. And, lastly, LAist's favorite alt-rockers Everest (LAist Review, #2) will be playing an in-store session at Fingerprints in Long Beach early on in the afternoon. But we strongly suggest heading over to Home Restaurant to catch jazz-infused pop duo Alex & Sam (LAist Interview, Review).

              

Last Sunday, local Alex Lilly's solo project Obi Best (MySpace), formerly known as Colorforms (MySpace), performed the first show of her month-long residency, celebrating the release of her debut album , at Tangier in Los Feliz.

Alex & Sam may be a duo in title, but their fairly large band, sometimes up to twelve-members on stage, is quite a force of music that just puts a smile on your face. You can't really corner them into a jazz-blues rock or straight rock category. All we can say is that on stage, they've got it going and they are making their way to becoming a household name in Los Angeles.
