Photos of local Post-Punk band, Jurors, taken by Madie Ramser at The Smell in DTLA on January 19th, 2019. The show was presented to you by Five Eyes; a fresh alternative collective to the LA scene. Jurors played in the dark with their light-box shining behind them, which provided an intimate and energetic feel. Other bands on the lineup that evening consisted of Killjoi, Storm Coast & Lovers Motel.

​Local Salt Lake City band, The Sardines, played at Kilby Court Thursday January 24th. This indie band gives a perfectly combined twist of Blues Soul and Beach Rock vibes. Devoted fans filled the venue as they debuted their new album Chameleon. Between their soft rock sound and tight guitar solos, The Sardines provide an emotionally-rich and moody sound, exclusive to their listeners.

    For a show on a Thursday night, DBA 256 in Pomona, California was still very much packed. Left Without was one of the bands performing and even though the members of the band have different musical influences, you may not be able to tell based on their sound.
    The post hardcore quartet brought their melodic tunes to DBA 256 at the beginning of the year and had the crowd bopping their heads with positive feedback to follow.
    At first listen, you could say that they're a band recommended for fans of Thursday and early Brand New. Even though the band only has a demo out at the moment, they are currently in the middle of recording new tunes!
    Left Without is starting the year strong as they are getting some shows lined up. The next show you can catch them at is Lot 1 Cafe in Echo Park on Saturday, February 16th.

To keep up with them, you can find them on Facebook (@leftwithout) or Instagram (@leftwithoutband).

"I took these photos of artist Alma Lake as she performed an intimate show at a hip rooftop bar in Hollywood overlooking LA. Her music drifted over the relaxed audience; she was soulful with attention in every note she sang. Her music was a celebration. Alma Lake was a shining light that night celebrating with her closest friends and fans celebrating her recent success of being broadcast on popular television show, The Four. "
