L.A. Witch with Tino Drima and Dawn Riding
From the event description:
L.A. Witch’s eponymous debut album tapped into the allure of warm nights on the West Coast while hinting at the loneliness and lawlessness of living on the literal periphery of a country founded on a dark past. It felt suited for driving through the desert late at night, broadcasting from some lonesome radio DJ through a low-signal FM station.
When: Tuesday, Sept. 10, 8-11:30 p.m.
Where: Starline Social Club Ballroom, 2236 Martin Luther King Junior Way
