Tonight in L.A.: Givers, Big Moves, Big Black Delta, Kissing Cousins/Writer, Red Circle Underground

1

Happy Monday .. no, I really mean that:

‣ Louisiana-based quintet Givers bring the exuberant pop off their debut album “In Light” to the Troubadour – it’s their second swing through L.A. in three months (they were good at the Bootleg in June), and this time they’ll get to do the Jimmy Kimmel Show (on Tuesday). That’s Givers’ video for “Meantime,” above.
‣ Arty jazz-pop five-piece Big Moves kick off their residency at the Bootleg Theater on a night Axel Steuerwald of Mere Mortals debuts his new project United Ghosts.
Big Black Delta continues its residency at the Satellite, with Tic Tic Boom and Paper Angels supporting.
‣ And the dual residency featuring Kissing Cousins and Writer goes off at the Echo, with Wet & Reckless also joining the fray.
