Los Angeles Needs... A Monday Update
Sorry, this news came late Friday...

A few ex-girlfriends are headed for the big time. Sara Bareilles performs 7/11 on "The Late Late Show w/ Craig Ferguson" and A Fine Frenzy aka Alison Sudol performs 7/13 on Leno. These girls have been Hotel Cafe regulars for awhile so it's nice to see them jump from audiences of a hundred to millions. Bareilles is currently on tour with Rocco Deluca and Sudol begins her tour with Rufus Wainwright on 7/29...

Space Mtn is looking for a guitarist. If you are awesome like Ms. Waxman, message them on their MySpace.

Speaking of MySpace, our boys Upground are featured in the music section this week. When we told you they were the second coming of Ozomatli we were not lying. And here's another tip: they're currently recording with Wil-Dog. Shh. Upground heads over to NY this week for LAMC 2007 (the SXSW of Latin indie music) with the ever-buzzing Ceci Bastida who will be appearing on "Morning Becomes Eclectic", broadcasting live from the conference.

Trying to cater toward the one demographic that Apple hasn't taken over, Zune launches their "Live at the BBQ" free music series in Los Angeles on 7/12 featuring performances by Common, Mos Def, David Banner, E-40, Bilal, Clipse, and others TBA.

It's also Stephen Hauptfuhr birthday on Wednesday. Happy Birthday to the originator of the weekly hip parties... You should be RSVPing to get into his party at Sahara right about now.

Finally, everyone go to Rock Insider's "Indie Schmindie" night at The Scene on Thursday.
