Origami Vinyl: Recent Purchase

Best Coast (Art Fag Recording, 2009) is a recent discovery for me and I love them. Luckily for me, and you as well, they will be playing Waved Out at the Echo and Echoplex this Saturday, March 27th.

Get this 7″ EP while it’s still in print. If you love thick distortion and heavy reverb, mixed with 1960′s pop sensibility song writing and a stoned-in-California vibe, this is for you.

The Echo is at 1822 Sunset Blvd, (213) 413-8200‎


El Prado

I stopped by El Prado last night to grab two rounds after work. I’ve been a long time fan of microbrews and Belgian-style ales and it’s such a treasure to have a bar so close to my house that serves these style of beers. I had the Allagash Tripple.

When I was there I noticed that the room was split, almost equally, into wine & beer drinkers. It’s just that type of place. Being a fan of mid-week bar time, this is a great night at El Prado. Tuesday night’s are also Record Club Night, which is hosted by Origami Vinyl. Details for the night can be found on Origami’s blogsite.

All and all, fun times.

El Prado is located at 1805 W. Sunset Boulevard, (213) 484-6079


Shortened Hours At Origami Vinyl This Week

Due to many Angelenos heading to Austin this week for the SXSW festival, Origami Vinyl has changed their hours this week. The owners are heading to the festival but their friends will be helping out so the store doesn’t have to close completely for the week.

Tue – Wed: Noon til 7pm
Fri – Sat: Noon til 10pm
Sun – Mon: Noon til 7pm


Friday: Ben Harper & Relentless7 at Origami Vinyl

On Friday, March 12, Origami Vinyl is hosting a FREE show featuring Ben Harper and Relentless7.

Relentless7, composed of Ben Harper, Jason Mozersky (guitar), Jesse Ingalls (bass) and Jordan Richardson (drums), released its album White Lies for Dark Times in May 2009. They also released a CD and DVD of their performance at the 2009 Montreal International Jazz Fest. A limited number of vinyl copies of the life performance as well as White Lies for Dark Times will be available for sale.

Doors open at 8:45 pm and the show starts at 9:00 pm, but since space is limited you should expect to arrive and line up early. Origami Vinyl expects to start lining people up at 7:30 pm.

Origami Vinyl is located at 1816 W. Sunset Blvd.
