Our Pick: Les Savy Fav, We Barbarians, La Ghost @ Echoplex
Tonight Louisville-based folk troubadour Will Oldham, a.k.a. Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, will be closing out a two-night stint at McCabe's Guitar Shop in Santa Mon Mon. Ontario-bred, Juno-nominated post-hardcore quintet Alexisonfire are poised to take on the Troubadour with none other than Sacramento's own Trash Talk. And, lastly, local alt-rockers Olin & the Moon (LAist Interview) will be performing at the Roxy in Hollyweird. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Echoplex to catch New York-based rock and roll outfit Les Savy Fav. LAist favorites, Long Beach-based indie rockers We Barbarians are slated to kick things off.
