Our Pick: The Northstar Session, Adam Ezra, Jenny O, Tenlons Fort, Ryan Smith & Voyage @ The Hotel Café
Tonight legendary Chicago-bred punk rockers the Dwarves will take on the Knitting Factory. LA-based indie rockers the Hectors are performing at Spaceland. On the earlier side of things, Redwood Bar & Grill will be hosting its weekly Brunch Americana with none other than Mike Stinson at the top of the bill. And, lastly, raucous PA-based rockers Eastern Conference Champions are poised to play at the Scene in Glendale. But we recommend heading over to the Hotel Café to catch Texan folk rock maestros Tenlons Fort (LAist Review, #2, #3).
