It's the halfway point in the week already, Scenestar readers. This time we're headed to Hollywood to take in our Show of the Night selection: Rhiannon Giddens! The eclectic artist will be taking over the Hollywood Bowl tonight to celebrate the evolution of folk music led by Rhiannon Giddens and her own Old-Time Revue (Dirk Powell, Jason Sypher, Demeanor, Amelia Powell, and Justin Robinson of the Carolina Chocolate Drops) alongside Our Native Daughters (Leyla McCalla & Amythyst Kiah), Steve Martin, Alison Brown, Ed Helms, and more, drawing attention to its stories of struggle, resilience, and the beauty of shared heritage.
In that case, your other live music options include performances by Band of Skulls, Liam Finn, Mimi Gilbert, Boldy James, Perennial, Petite League, Q, Craig Robinson, Andrew Santino, David Spade, Souls of Mischief, Malcolm Todd, Tomorrow's Bad Seeds, and many more.
