One of the best music venues in Long Beach, Alex’s Bar, is celebrating their 12th Anniversary this weekend with a pair of shows featuring The Reigning Sound and The Strange Boys. The last time I was this excited for a show in LB (well… outside of our xmas party of course) was when The Flamin’ Groovies played Alex’s a few months back. They’re being joined Friday by Thee Cormans and Death Hymn Number 9. For Saturday The Black Tibetans and Fidlar will be opening.
I’ve been wanting to see Reigning Sound for years and have somehow missed them. They’re living in North Carolina now so it’s not like they’re out here that often. The Strange Boys, from Austin, Tx don’t make it around much either, especially not to Long Beach. You can check them both out on Spotify. I hope to see some folks there Saturday!
