Concert BReak Meets New Music West: May 15 - May 22
New Music West has officially begun. I enjoyed a great show last night and am hoping for another tonight. The first half of this week's CB is dominated by NMW so I thought I should throw in a link to the festival's schedule. Video and more dates after the jump (included non-NMWers).
Thursday, May 15
Here are tonight's concerts.
