Scenestar

Los Angeles' #1 independent source for music news, contests, secret shows, presales, local concert calendar, set times, & more since 2006.

Flyer-Final
Happy New Year everyone! The start of the new year is often a time to reflect on the time past and the future ahead, and for the staff of The Scenestar, 2009 will mark the end of the site, but the beginning of new projects and ideas.

The Scenestar was first conceived in 2006 among music-loving friends who wanted to share their passion with other Los Angelenos. This passion for music spread into a multitude of interests: reliable journalism, photography, concert reviews and reporting word-on-the-street rumors (secret shows, anyone?), among others.

As with most of these projects, the reasons for the site’s conclusion are many, and many are the usual clichés: logistics, monetary, difference of interests, et al. But in the end, we Scenestars can all conclude that we enjoyed the site while it existed, and we’re thankful for all the readers and notes of encouragement that kept us going.

May 2009 be full of great music,
The Scenestar

    You will be missed….
    Thanks for all the timely updates on shows around LA. You got me into one or more shows I might not have known about.
    Many thank you’s and a last second plea to reconsider…

    Sorry to see you go! The Scenestar has been my favorite source of LA music info since I moved here this summer. Best wishes with your future endeavors – maybe you could leave us some links to some second-best coverage of the LA music scene?
