So Many Wizards will be performing tonight at the Smell | Picture via So Many Wizards' Myspace
Our Pick: Jesus Makes The Shotgun Sound, Boomsnake, Hosannas, So Many Wizards @ The Smell
Tonight Swedish electro pop outfit Miike Snow will be kicking off a completely sold-out, three-night stint at the Henry Fonda Music Box with none other than LAist favorite, Nashville's Daniel James, better known as Canon Blue. Highland Park's own deep crooner Crooked Cowboy is poised to take on thesex in the outskirts of Downtown with local rock and roll outfit Slang Chickens (LAist Review). And, lastly, local indie rockers One Trick Pony, Rademacher, and Seasons will be gracing the one and only All Star Lanes in Eagle Rock. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Smell in Downtown to catch Long Beach-bred one-man band Nima Kazeroun, who performs under the pseudonym So Many Wizards.
So Many Wizards - "Nico"
Support for LAist comes from
Miike Snow - "Cult Logic"
Crooked Cowboy & the Freshwater Indians - "BEDBUGS"

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
