Rachael Yamagata @ Hotel Cafe, 3/18/08
Last Tuesday, singer-songwriter Rachael Yamagata (MySpace) performed two sold-out shows at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood.
A former Hotel Cafe Tour alumnus, Yamagata's appearance there two years ago drew fans from all over Southern California, and these shows were no different, with fans lining up hours in advance for her 8:30 PM and 10:30 PM shows. And since her upcoming two week tour in mid-April takes her to the Midwest and East Coast as well as Canada, this was perhaps the one opportunity to see her locally in the forseeable future.
Special thanks to Rachael Yamagata and Hotel Cafe.
