the musical history of los angeles

I put together a piece for the June issue of the Los Angeles Times magazine that was a musical map of our fair city. It didn't make the print edition, but it's online currently. The piece ended up being organized by year, and I should advise that some events have been placed in the incorrect year, but the article does give a sense of the breadth of musical styles and legends that have made an impact on Los Angeles and its cultural landscape.
