Tonight Grammy-nominated Tennessee-based pop punk outfit Paramore will be headlining the Hollywood Palladium with Nashville's own electro-infused indie rock quartet Paper Route and Michigan-based punk outfit the Swellers in tow (Postponed!). English garage rockers the Horrors are poised to take on the El Rey Theatre with none other than Costa Mesa-bred rockers Japanese Motors. And, lastly, Seattle-based folk maestros the Cave Singers will be performing at the Echo with Vancouver-based folk rockers Lightning Dust and Foreign Born side-project Big Search. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Troubadour to catch Swedish multi-instrumentalist Loney Dear (LAist Interview). LAist favorites, Swedish singer-songwriter Anna Ternheim and New York's own shoegaze queen Asobi Seksu are slated to kick things off.

Tonight local multi-instrumentalist/producer extraordinaire Jon Brion (LAist Interview, #2, Review) will be jamming with friends at the Largo at the Coronet. Atlanta-bred neo soul singer-songwriter Van Hunt is poised to ring in his latest disc, 2009's Use In Case of Emergency, at Zanzibar in Santa Monica. And, lastly, Freeland, UK-based DJ Adam Freeland's live band, will be gracing the Echo later on in the evening. But we strongly suggest doing whatever it takes to get into the Henry Fonda Music Box to catch UK-based indie rock duo the Kills. Fellow English garage rockers the Horrors are slated to kick things off.

It's the last Saturday of the month and that means The Blue Mask at Mr. T's Bowl in Highland Park is back after a little holiday break. LA Weekly describes the all-night music party put on by fellow musicians of Motorcycle Black Madonnas as a venue to catch "some of the city’s most respected underground punk, hard-rock and bent-jazz musicians... Best of all, there’s almost no chance that the faux-rock glitterati (or celebrity trash like Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan) will ever discover/ruin the place."

LA is home to dozens of classic, independent, rock clubs. Many of these clubs helped launch most of your favorite bands. But those bands would have never made it on stage if it wasn't for the booker, the person who actually schedules the bands to play the show on the particular date. We start this series in Little Armenia at Safari Sam's, a club that was originally created 20 years ago in Huntington Beach...

England’s most goulish export, The Horrors, came out with their new album Strange House in March 2007, and its hard, raw, and a bit scary, at least to this emo loving princess. Formed over five years ago, when Rys Webb, Faris Badwan, and Tomethy Furse met on the Southend circuit sharing their love of 60’s garage band rock, The Horrors are unique to say the least. With heavy drums by Coffin Joe (Joe Spurgeon), eerie...

The Fratelli's doing "The Seeker" with Pete Townshend at SXSW Now that SXSW has wrapped, indie bands and up n comers are scattering around the country like cockroaches startled by the kitchen light. Tonight we have three groups that LAist was lucky enough to see out in Austin. We caught Bloc Party putting on an energetic and uplifting set in the back of Stubbs, we saw The Fratelli's do a light-hearted acoustic set on...
