Photos: Saint Motel and Kitten at Also I Like to Rock

Written by

WOW .  That’s all I can say about the first Also I Like to Rock concert of 2010. Kitten proved that a 15-year-old can be fierce. Singer Chloe Chaidez captured everyone’s attention with a killer voice and a full-contact performance, with both her bandmates and the stage itself. But Saint Motel were the true stars of the show and the handsome four-piece had a mob of fans waiting for them at the merch booth after performing a set of catchy pop rock that had the whole courtyard bouncing with joy.  KCRW and the Hammer Museum are presenting this free music series on Thursdays in July and I hope you’ll join us for the next one! Check out a preview courtesy of Buzzbands.la

Thanks to Andrew Herrold for some great photos!
