For the past 7 decades, the Ojai Music Festival has been a staple for celebrating classical music. Each year, a music director is given the freedom and resources to imagine four days of musical brainstorming. Some have approached their task with caution, fearing that Ojai […]
Something that I will always remember about 2017 (aside from getting married–that was sort of a big deal) are the phenomenal concerts I was fortunate enough to attend. Literally some of the most fantastic concerts I have seen yet happened this year. Just for fun, […]
“I have a lot of really warm and loving feelings towards the beauty of those isolated Highway 1 communities. I’ve always wanted to live there. They make my heart ache for memories that I know aren’t from this lifetime, but another” explains Le Bas-Fond founder […]
(Editor’s Note: Guys, I’ve been busy. Between being under the weather, trips, work and attempting to maintain some time chill-laxing, it’s been a bit overwhelming. So, what’s a gal to do when she’s invited to an incredible, intimate concert but, alas, cannot make it? As […]
(Editor’s note: Silversun PIckups seem to be becoming the ‘mascot’ band for Along Comes Mary! When the blog first launched, I attended The KROQ Weenie Roast shortly after and SSPU were one of my favorite acts of the evening. Still new to the blogshpere, I […]

When I headed out on a scorching warm LA day (106 high!) to Griffith Park’s Greek Theatre last weekend, I knew that I would be in for some great music from The Danish Film Harmonics’ and Film composer, Jacob Groth, but, no idea how much […]
On September 25th, join me at The Greek Theatre for Nordic Noir LA, a one-of-a-kind benefit for Friends of Griffith Park, a non-profit charitable group, at the Greek Theatre here in LA! This world-class concert is hosted by internationally recognized film composer Jacob Groth and the Danish […]

Growing up, I never understood the fuss about Weezer. I thought of them as most men probably think of Tori Amos; a cliché musician women name drop. I always thought guys trying to act cool, but not too cool, would mention their love of Weezer. […]
