The Echo is a local alternative music venue located on Sunset Blvd. in Echo Park. Formerly a restaurant, the repurposed space now hosts some of the hottest up-and-coming LA bands and DJs, as well as many talked-up touring outfits.
The promoters who manage the Echo also book shows at a larger venue below Sunset on Glendale Blvd., called the Echoplex.
You can purchase tickets to Echo and Echoplex shows at Origami Vinyl — located next to the Echo — or through its website. Their comprehensive site also contains more information on the Echo's many dance nights, from Funky Soul to Dub Club (the finest in dancehall, dub and reggae).
