ALICIA KEYS AT THE STAPLES CENTER

 

Fresh off her show-stopping rendition of the National Anthem at this year's Super Bowl, Alicia Keys will be stopping into the Staples Center in support of her fifth studio album, Girl on Fire. Opening for the fourteen time Grammy winner will be Miguel, who received five Grammy nods himself earlier this year, including one for the prestigious Song of the Year. Now to quickly review, for the price of one ticket you get to see two of the most talented R&B artists working in music today. Let's see you top that Mr. Bieber!

BILLY BRAGG AT THE EL REY

 

To most Americans, Billy Bragg is the English folkie that collaborated with Wilco on a trio of albums – known collectively as the Mermaid Avenue albums – that featured the previously unheard lyrics of Woody Guthrie. So whatever happened to Mr. Bragg? As it turns out, he never went anywhere. In fact, Billy Bragg's been around for over three decades, making him about as much of an icon in his native England as Bob Dylan is here. Maybe not quite as big as His Bobness, but you get the point – the dude knows how to write a tune. Last month Bragg released Tooth & Nail, his first album of new material in five years, and will be stopping into the El Rey in March to support it. And yes, you can expect to hear at least one Woody Guthrie cover.
