2012 Edition : Pocket Los Angeles

LA runs deeper than her blonde beaches and celebrified hills would have you believe. She’s a beacon for small-town dreamers, an open-minded angel best defined by simple, life-affirming moments – a cracked-ice, jazz-age cocktail on Beverly Blvd, or a hike high into the Hollywood Hills sagebrush. And her night music. There is always night music.
