Caught Inji at The Fonda Theatre over the weekend. Brooke Leca got the night started with a DJ set, and from there Inji kept the energy high from start to finish. Watching an entire LA crowd dance together all night long isn’t something you see every day. Great songs, great stage presence, and an incredibly fun show. 📷 by @Derrick K.

@markambor’s latest single “New York Confident” feels like a genuine artistic pivot. Trading in some of the familiar stomp-and-holler folk-pop textures that have dominated portions of modern indie music, Ambor leans into sweeping piano flourishes, dramatic pauses, and a proudly New York sense of identity. The result is one of his most compelling songs in years. ✍️: @Derrick K. Lee, Esq. Click the link below or in our profile to check it out.

@lindseylomis at @bluenotela 5/25/26 [7pm show]. 📷 by @Derrick K. Lee, Esq. So locked in editing photos today that I almost forgot to leave for Hollywood to catch this show tonight. First time photographing a performance at this venue, so there was definitely a little bit of a learning curve, but the experience ended up being fantastic. The sound was immaculate, the room had a great energy, and the artist absolutely delivered. Still going through edits now, but more photos are coming soon. Stay tuned. #LindseyLomis #BlueNoteLA #DKLPHOTOS #BlurredCulture #ConcertPhotography #LiveMusicPhotography #MusicPhotography #ConcertPhotographer #MusicPhotographer #LiveMusic #IndieMusic #SingerSongwriter #HollywoodMusic #LosAngelesMusic #LAConcerts #BlueNote #IndieArtist #NowPlaying #LivePerformance #OnStage #TourLife #MusicScene #Photography #ConcertPics #VenuePhotography #MusicLovers #GigPhotography #LiveShow #MusicCulture #LosAngeles

I’ve been doing so much writing the past couple weeks that I’ve fallen way behind on my photo editing backlog… so if you’ve been wondering where all the galleries have been, that’s the reason. 😅 Hoping to spend some time catching up over this holiday weekend because I’ve still got a LOT of photos sitting in the pipeline.

There’s something timeless about a simple song that knows exactly what it wants to say. On “Heart,” The Wldlfe lean into emotional honesty, memorable hooks, and the kind of late-night longing that feels painfully familiar. Equal parts tender and catchy, the track turns heartbreak into something deeply human and relatable.   Read our full review now at Blurred Culture. ✍️: @Derrick K.

Ok Goodnight’s new single “Spiral” completely wrecked my brain in the best possible way. Blending elements of math rock, glitch pop, art pop, noise rock, hard rock and everything in between, the band somehow transforms emotional instability into a sonic experience that feels both chaotic and deeply human. Casey Lee Williams’ voice is unreal on this track, constantly shifting between fragility and intensity while the song spirals through unpredictable textures and moods.And the animated music video? Equally mesmerizing. This isn’t passive-listening music. It’s the kind of song that demands your full attention and rewards you for giving it. ✍️: @Derrick K. Lee, Esq.

Deep Purple helped define hard rock decades ago, and somehow they still know how to make riffs sound dangerous. “Arrogant Boy” feels like vintage Purple with frantic guitars, punctuated keyboards, and Ian Gillan still sounding vicious behind the mic.
