Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 6/2-6/8
I was blown away by the response to The Wrecks this weekend at the Wiltern. The band has come a long way in the last decade and to see a room that large full of love and dancing was quite remarkable…I think everyone got a bit teary-eyed. The entire evening felt like a turning point for my beloved band and I can’t wait to see where they go from here!
As for where I’m going, out to find a new rock band to follow around I suppose. I’ve got high hopes for Bruvvy who play Gold-Diggers Saturday night, but show pick of the week goes to Arizona songsmith Wheelwright, in town coming off a recently released new album that must be heard live.
