Tonight Talking Heads splinter, legendary new wave duo Tom Tom Club will be headlining the Echoplex. Local electronic mastermind James Tamborello, otherwise known as Dntel, is poised to take on the Bootleg Theater with none other than LA-based orchestral pop duo the Long Lost, a collaboration between Alfred Darlington (otherwise known as electronic mastermind Daedelus) and his wife Laura. And, lastly, LA-by-way-of-Colorado folk troubadour Patrick Park will be gracing the Echo Park United Methodist Church with local indie rock outfit Sea Wolf (LAist Interview, Review, #2, #3). But we strongly suggest heading over to the Smell in Downtown to catch Oxnard-bred lo-fi garage rock trio Catwalk.
