Kim and The Created with L.A. Witches and Colleen Green at the Echoplex

Kim and The Created

What an awesome night of free music at The Echoplex. It is a week later and I'm still feeling a buzz. Since I'm writing about a Monday night, it was a residency night. The residency band was Kim and The Created. The music sounds like Halloween. And the stage performance is wild. She came out in a Catwoman costume. And then honestly, at some point in the set, she smeared red paint across her face. When this happened, I have no clue.

She wasn't the only awesome band of the night. Opening the night was L.A. Witch. This band just strums along with a strong downbeat and an ever so slightly tinged Roy Orbison vocals, but with a female twist.

Colleen Green brought the edgy sweetness into the middle of the night. She sang with earnest, apologizing at times when her pre-programmed beats didn't match up with what exactly she wanted to accomplish. There is also this endearing shyness to her stage show that just makes you want to cheer her on.

I wish those three bands would do another night together. I'd be there in a second.
