Local legends and Sunset Strip Music Festival alum Warner Drive will take the stage at The Roxy Theatre on Friday, Feb. 25, to celebrate the release of their new album, K-Go! Their first full length in almost four years, The Sunset Strip staples are poised to unleash their brand new recording – featuring an all new lineup – on the unsuspecting rock n’ roll masses.
To fuel up for their big CD release party, the band – Jonny Law (vocals), Albert Winkler (guitar), Candice Levinson (guitar), Elvis James (bass) and Jonny U (drums) – hit another staple on The Strip, Duke’s West Hollywood, for some late night burgers, grilled cheese and brews. Now open until 4 a.m. on weekends (Thursday-Saturday), Duke’s has become the place for revelers to recoup after a night of debauchery on The Sunset Strip.

Whether you love it, you hate it, it’s in or outdated…Valentine’s Day is upon us. Don’t repeat the 2008 "incident" when you attempted to take down an entire cheesecake while simultaneously synching Dark Side Of The Moon to The Wizard Of Oz. Plan ahead this year.
Luckily, The Sunset Strip has your V-Day weekend plans covered, whether you want to party with singles, are searching for an intimate rooftop dining experience or want to learn how to craft the perfect love song. This is your one-stop, 100% fun destination.
Tonight, acclaimed indie dance-pop group Friendly Fires is taking over The Sunset Strip with not just one, but two shows on the boulevard. The magic begins at The Roxy Theatre as the band headlines a night of music that also features sets from favorites Superhumanoids and the always enjoyable Foster The People.
Who’s that girl in the window!? No doubt many Sunset Strip commuters have pondered this question while driving past the newest suggestive window display at Hustler Hollywood.

Picking her brain on Valentine’s Day, redhead-dom, and her new found fame, The Sunset Strip dream weaver shared her thoughts on all things romance.
