Echo Park Rising (slide show)

Echo Park Rising, now in its third year, had visitors and Eastsiders alike cruising the neighborhood this weekend in search of live music, deals from local businesses and fun pop-ups including a free lemonade stand, bizarro marching band and even a manicure/haircut station. Venues such as Origami Vinyl and the Echo showcased some pretty heavy-hitting artists, and the two-day soirée proved to be a welcome warmup for next week's FYF fest.
