Two Door Cinema will be performing at Bardot and the Troubadour this week | Photo via Two Door Cinema's Myspace
This week New York-based rock and roll outfit Les Savy Fav will not only be performing for free at the Getty Center for this month's edition of 'Saturdays Off the 405,' but they will also be taking on the Echoplex with Long Beach-based indie rockers We Barbarians. Local electronic mastermind Flying Lotus is poised to perform in-store at Amoeba Music in Hollyweird in celebration of his latest tour-de-force—2010's Cosmogramma. Swedish folk singer-songwriter the Tallest Man on Earth will be gracing the Natural History Museum with the O.C.'s Gamble House for this month's edition of 'First Fridays.' And, lastly, Irish indie pop sensation Two Door Cinema Club will be making their US debut at Bardot, and following that, headlining a sold-out show at the Troubadour.
