So, all the acts who have slowly been rolling into LA as they decide to pass their way through after Coachella or on their way to Sasquatch are making May pretty fantastic so far. We kicked things off on the 1st with Avi Buffalo‘s record release show at The Troubadour and the 3rd brought us Broken Social Scene at the Henry Fonda.

The big shows include The National, Massive Attack, Nada Surf and more but the small local indie gems also include The Like, 60 Watt Kid and Hurricane Bells. Also, we can’t forget how Flying Lotus will be debuting at his first live performance ever and Voxtrot will be playing their Farewell Tour. Check all the dates out below and start planning your month out like a true music fiend.
