L.A. Union Station is an architectural wonder, combining Dutch Colonial Revival, Mission Revival and Streamline Moderne styles. Built in 1939, this transportation hub is known as "Last of the Great Railway Stations" in the U.S. Doesn't it sound like an ideal spot for a music video? more ›

New York's own folk rock outfit Nickel Eye, which features none other than Nikolai Fraiture of the Strokes, are set to headline the Troubadour with Low vs Diamond in tow.
