Los Angeles Concert Calendar: April

This month’s highlights: Colin Meloy of the Decemberists (pictured) brings yet another solo tour to L.A. at the end of the month and retro-pop duo She & Him plays a few rare dates. (Hear them on two radio recordings here and here.) The Hotel Cafe tour looks promising, and I won’t be at those arena hip-hop shows but I’m sure they’ll raise the already lofty roofs. Oh, and there’s a little music festival called Coachella… As always, find a more complete list of dates at Oh My Rockness or Rawkblog pals/(full disclosure) sometimes-employers Songkick.
