Tonight In Rock: Rick Springfield, Gillian Welch, Sara and Sean Watkins, The Eye The Ear & The Arm

Tonight Australian-American singer-songwriter Rick Springfield will be headlining the Roxy. Get rickrolled in person! North Hollywood-based indie rock outfit the Eye the Ear & the Arm are poised to play Mr T's Bowl in Highland Park. And, lastly, Sara and Sean Watkins of the now-defunct Nickelcreek will be performing at Largo at the Coronet's Little Room for the famed Watkins Family Hour. But we strongly suggest heading over to the main room at Largo at the Coronet to catch bluegrass singer-songwriter Gillian Welch with her longtime musical partner Dave Rawlings.

Tonight Australian-American singer-songwriter Rick Springfield (LAist Review) will be performing at Club Nokia. Social Distortion (LAist Review) front man Mike Ness is closing out his extensive stay at the El Rey Theatre. Grammy Award winners Los Lobos will be rocking out at the House of Blues Sunset. Local musician/producer extraordinaire Jon Brion (LAist Review) is slated to jam with friends at the Largo at the Coronet. The Hotel Café will kick off their three-night "ho-ho-tel" holiday extravaganza with an impressive array of singer-songwriter types, like Meiko (LAist Review, #2, #3, #4), Greg Laswell (LAist Interview, Review, #2, #3) and Gary Jules. And, lastly, LAist favorites Radars to the Sky (LAist Review, #2, #3) are slated to celebrate the release of their forthcoming full-length at Spaceland with Swedish husband/wife act Wildbirds and Peacedrums. But we recommend doing whatever it takes to get into the Troubadour. Phantom Planet, who have struggled endlessly with their musical identity since the untimely departure of Jason Schwartzman (LAist Review), will be playing their last show ever!

So, Friday night I’m in my car headed towards the El Rey to see legendary punks The Slits. I’m excited. For my money, The Slits are one of the truly essential bands to emerge from the London “Class of ‘77”. I’m almost there, when my cell phone rings. “I have two free tickets – Row AA in the Orchestra Pit - for Rick Springfield at the Universal Amphitheatre.” (Actually, he said Gibson Amphitheatre, but in my mind, it will always be the Universal Amphitheatre.)
