Losanjealous Concert Picks: July 30 – August 5

PICK OF THE WEEK

’MarnieMARNIE STERN @ Echoplex

Good stretch for ladies that rock coming up here with Marnie, M.I.A., The Slits, even Victoria Williams, all in town this week. Ms. Stern gets the nod for her great arty rock tunes executed with mind blowing virtuosity all over her Jazzmaster’s fretboard. Some kind of genius, now backed by a full band.
