The stage was much too small for her 🔥🔥 set!! Her support was stellar, and the force that is Annabel Lee won’t be tamed for long. Fantastically impressed with this opener, and much love to Hembree for bringing her out!! The small, intimate venue of Hotel Cafe made this a spectacular night out for a show. Happy holidays 🎄
Last night at The Hotel Cafe in Hollywood was nothing short of magical. The intimate and cozy 70’s-themed venue allows each artist to truly connect with the audience. Anthony Arya was a standout, performing three songs, including “Jade” from his upcoming album set to debut on Saturday, 11/2. Fun fact: "Jade" is actually Anthony’s middle name! Witnessing him perform this track live was a special moment. Looking forward to catching up with him again at @Trip -Santa Monica tonight!

Such a beautiful evening filled with layers of lush ethereal tones. She’s an amazing songwriter and her accompanist on guitar took each song to a new level. I wish more people would discover her talent…she’s got it!
Mike engages the audience!! It's always a good time 👏👏👏👏👏 He is sooo talented...Take a listen wherever you stream music. Check out his newest album "Ghosts & Whispers" (on Spotify, Apple Music, etc). www.mikestocksdale.com
Great show. The feeling was being in Tracy's basement as the venue held about 200 people. I am a big fan of the Tracy Bonham of the the 90's with hard driving guitar, drums, base and of course Tracy on the violin. This was a more "mellow" Tracy but I respect that she has to enjoy the music she is playing and she certainly gave the impression that she loves playing in front of us.
It's a three piece band with Tracy playing keyboards and electric guitar, a stand up base and a drummer.
I would not hesitate to see her again.
Adam never disappoints at his concerts and pulls the audience into his world for an amazing musical experience. If you ever get the chance to see Adam in person; make it a priority on your list, you will not regret!
Thanks Adam!!
The hotel café is charming, it was easy to park. It’s a great venue to hear music…. I wondered why there wasn’t a little more seating since about 85% of the audience was standing… But that didn’t matter. we were all there to hear the music..
Arielle is a force of nature, she sang 14 songs with her band…. All the songs on her new CD,
“Watershed”. Her lyrics are meaningful, poetic,
and call for more and repeated listening.
Love, courage, fun,.. and downright joy… I left, feeling nourished and inspired, I can hardly wait to hear the CD again and again.
Outstanding! Incredible guitar playing from notes to chords.The trio compliments each other so well. The individual intricacies are fun to listen and watch. As a group they manage to make these individual efforts work as united and beautifully complex sound.
i'm not sure why there were only six people at this show, but he played like the room was full. his voice was as flawless as his lyrics, and his band (karl on standup bass + carter on dobro) made the perfect trio. i sure hope people catch on to caleb so the next time he comes thru los angeles he'll have a crowd worthy of his genius.
This was such an amazing show. So much energy, so much fun, and so much good music! I'm so pleased to be able to see Chapel Hart's show at a small venue (Hollywood! LOL -- that was me!) as they are on their way up. It was up close and personal -- I'll never have that chance once they hit it really big and are playing at big venues. I wish all the best for these ladies and will enjoy watching them soar!
What a wonderful wonderful wonderful show. This music feels full of love and the bands performance was incredible. Begonia is not only an INCREDIBLE singer but absolutely hilarious and seems like such a truly wonderful person. I'm so so excited for their journey.
Great energy and wonderful concert by Caroline! The horn section and Daniel de los Reyes from Zac Brown Band also accompanied her on songs. A special treat was having John Driskell Hopkins join her onstage to sing "Toes". Her voice and talent as a musician is amazing!
Brilliant. Amazing. This will have been the sixth time I’ve seen Bay play live and he never disappoints. So so so cool to get to see him in such an intimate venue. I feel really fortunate.
This was a fantastic show. I really liked Theo and Wyatt. Great original songs. The Ban, base player and drummer, were excellent too. Their banter between songs added to the evening. Very authentic young musicians.
The man has a gift!! Simply an incredible musician and songwriter, who's voice seems to get better and better over time.
He's also just a super nice guy! Looking forward to Face The River on May 20th!
The best Saturday night I've had in years! I hope he has another show in the LA area soon. The music was beautiful and the lyrics go straight to the heart. Kiefer's comments and anecdotes give meaning and new perspective to his songs, as well as often providing a few good laughs! The passion with which Kiefer sang, and he and Rocco played, truly made for an evening I will never forget!
Fabulous! Full of Heart! Kiefer really puts it out there and connects with the audience. Not only with his music but also with his comments and anecdotes. The music itself was beautiful and he and Rocco deliver it with passion.
Reina, Toni, Josh, and Carson were fabulous, as always. The only issue that prevents me from giving them a five-star review is the sound system at the Hotel Cafe - it didn't do them any favors. The mix was generally uneven on many of the songs, and the bass frequently overpowered the guitars and vocals. In fairness, it may have been partly due to where I was sitting: front row, stage right. I realize not every seat can have ideal audio in such a small venue. But back to the musicians: technically excellent and warmly soulful. For me, Josh and Carson's rendition of "Angelina" was worth the price of admission alone. I hope to see them back in L.A. soon!
Super intimate show. Good to get out and see a great storytelling musician who definitely has a pulse on his audience. Noah seems like a really chill dude you would want to go and get a beer with and shoot the daily s;?t.
Had a great opportunity getting too meet and greet Mignon who I found to be such an amazing person from the first moment i meet her..Mignon was very approachable and was very stoked about her on stage performance that she made the most of..Since it was her first time at hotel cafe she connected with the audience with a set performed of lyrics and songs that the audience and I connect ed with. The energy and beautiful showmanship was simply outstanding ..I would definetly recommend seeing her live..you will be glad you did.
