Tonight Chicago-based pop punk outfit Alkaline Trio will be headlining the House of Blues Sunset in Hollyweird with Omaha-based indie rockers Cursive in tow. Local country-infused folk, twin-sister duo the Watson Twins (LAist Review, #2) are poised to grace the Bootleg Theater with none other than Long Beach's own pop songstress (and general lass) Jessica Dobson—otherwise known as Deep Sea Diver (LAist Review). And, lastly, the City of Brotherly Love's own experimental synth-pop outfit Cold Cave will be taking on the Glass House in Pomona with Chicago-bred garage rock outfit Smith Westerns, local lo-fi pop act Best Coast and Long Beach/Los Alamitos natives and recent Sub Pop signees Avi Buffalo (LAist Interview, Review). But we strongly suggest heading over to the Airliner in Lincoln Heights to catch Texan experimental electronic guru Ernest Gonzales, who will be performing for this week's edition of Low End Theory.
You can find these listings as well as the rest of the week's in our weekly Week In Rock post, which (generally) goes up every Sunday.
