One of the most buzzed about new artists in recent memory, Meg Myers returned to The Viper Room last week for her second sold out showcase. The stormy songstress played to an at-capacity crowd, peppered with major label reps, TV execs and in-the-know tastemakers, all privy to the fact that they were witnessing the turning point of a career.

House of Blues filled The Sunset Strip with a firey spectacle this week as the national concert venue celebrated 20 years and 20,000 performances with a fireworks display, celebrity party and concert featuring ZZ Top.
Blues Brothers Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi reunited for the Dec. 4 event and set the stage for a massive fireworks show outside of the iconic venue. After the show, guests were treated to a performance by ZZ Top, Flogging Molly and Deer Tick inside the venue.
The event kicked off a 20 month celebration, which will also include 20th Anniversary concert tours with a portion of ticket sales from these concerts benefiting the International House of Blues Foundation's "Action For The Arts" program, which encourages creative expression through art and promotes cultural understanding.
