  1. Could Wendy Greuel's love affair with labor backfire in Valley?

    The long-running love-in between Wendy Greuel and public employee unions continued Tuesday, with the mayoral candidate from the San Fernando Valley bagging an endorsement from the powerful Los Angeles County Federation of Labor.

  3. Yes, Virginia, there is a Sequester Day

    So, it’s Sequester’s Eve, and all through the White House (and the House and the Senate), not a creature is stirring, not even John Boehner.

  5. Grammys 2013: Pre-telecast ceremony broadens the spotlight

    Awards handed out Sunday before the evening Grammy Awards telecast sometimes set the stage for what happens during the national TV broadcast. This year, the Black Keys got the momentum rolling by having a hand in three awards early on, including rock album for “El Camino” and rock song for “Lonely Boy.”

  7. Critic's Notebook: 'Ho Hey,' songs like this are here to stay

    One of the underreported music health stories of last year was the trouble brought on by the Lumineers virus. At the beginning of 2012, a three-headed body from Denver released to the world a thing called "Ho Hey," and it spread through ears and into heads and hearts until it had strengthened into a particularly virulent, if ultimately harmless, strain of ear worm.

  9. Woody Guthrie's new year's resolutions

    As we close the book on 2012, which among other things included the ambitious yearlong multifaceted salute to Woody Guthrie on the 100<sup>th</sup> anniversary of his birth, Pop &amp; Hiss will take a page from America&rsquo;s most celebrated folk singer and songwriter. Two pages, actually, that contain 33 new year&rsquo;s resolutions that Guthrie concocted just as the year 1942 was about to begin.

  11. Grammys 2013: John Fullbright's 'From the Ground Up'

    How surprised was Blue Door Records co-owner Greg Johnson when he got word that his Oklahoma-based artist John Fullbright had been nominated for a Grammy Award for Americana album, alongside roots-music heavyweights Mumford &amp; Sons, Bonnie Raitt, the Avett Brothers and the fast-rising Lumineers?

  17. Ken Burns' latest: The man-made disaster of the Dust Bowl

    In a sense, Ken Burns' new documentary is the photographic negative of the one he delivered in 2009: Instead of swooning full-color shots of azure lakes and soaring mountains, his new film is made of images that could come from the dark side of the moon.

  19. Review: Ken Burns' 'The Dust Bowl' a timely, exceptional endeavor

    Ken Burns, public television's signature chronicler of great American moments, pastimes and inventions, has turned his Ken Burns Effect loose upon "The Dust Bowl." One would say it was almost inevitable that two things so huge were bound to meet.

  21. Jim James of My Morning Jacket to release solo album

    Jim James has done plenty of work lately outside the confines of his Kentucky-based roots-rock band, My Morning Jacket: In 2009 he recorded and toured with Conor Oberst, M. Ward and Mike Mogis as <a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2009/sep/20/entertainment/ca-monsters-folk20" target="_blank">Monsters of Folk</a>, and earlier this year he took part in an all-semi-star homage to Woody Guthrie called "<a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2012/02/woody-guthrie-new-multitudes-jay-farrar-yim-yames-.html" target="_blank">New Multitudes</a>."

  23. Counter Intelligence: Red Hill brings a folky modernism to Echo Park

    To understand Red Hill, Jason Michaud and Trevor Rocco's newish place in a converted Chinese bakery just north of Sunset, you could do worse than to look at the bread-and-butter plate, a once-free nicety that has evolved into an item of competition in L.A.'s new surge of small-plates restaurants.
