 The Echo/Echoplex:
1822 Sunset Blvd.
If you’re ready to dance or to listen to the latest “it” band, stop by the Echo any day of the week. Half club, half concert venue, the Echo boasts a multitude of artists that will keep your head spinning like turntables. Catch bands that haven’t fallen victim to the corporate machine or well-known artists who like to hold secret shows in intimate locations. But, if you’re in the mood for something a bit more underground, the basement of the Echo doubles up as the venue known as the Echoplex. Featuring more up-and-coming acts, this is where you’re likely to see bands perform before they hit it big. – Michelle Castillo
The Music Box at Henry Fonda Theater
6126 Hollywood Blvd.
Music and movies go hand in hand – hence the genius idea from the folks at the Henry Fonda Theater. A converted movie theater, The Music Box gets rock acts of all flavors – from alternative to emo to indie -- and makes them sound even more majestic thanks to the excellent acoustics of the concert hall. And, because it’s off the main strip of concert venues found on Sunset, you’ll only find die-hard fans waiting outside, not sheep-like music listeners who line up wherever there’s the most people. Classics like the New York Dolls or cult favorites like Rancid love to frequent the The Music Box because when they take this stage, they know they’ll sound better than ever before. – Michelle Castillo
