Tonight In Rock: The Music Tapes, Saint Motel, The Flying Tourbillon Orchestra, Mike Stinson

The Flying Tourbillon Orchestra will be playing tonight at All Star Lanes | Picture by Koga for LAist
Our Pick: Under Covered w/ Marvelous Toy, The Flying Tourbillon Orchestra, Radars to the Sky, Death to Anders @ All Star Lanes in Eagle Rock
Tonight the Music Tapes, a NY-based experimental indie-pop project of Elephant Six member Julian Koster, will be performing at the Echoplex. LA's own indie rockers Saint Motel (LAist Interview) are slated to rock Spaceland. And, lastly, local country troubadour Mike Stinson will be headlining an early show at the Echo. But we strongly recommend heading over to All Star Lanes in Eagle Rock to catch the Flying Tourbillon Orchestra (LAist Review, #2). LAist favorites Marvelous Toy, Radars to the Sky (LAist Review, #2, #3, #4) and Death to Anders (LAist Review) are poised to kick off the show.

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.
