"Housed in a former auto garage built in 1917, 12-year-old Crescent is famous for bringing in original, innovative music and up-and-coming new artists receiving national attention. Concert promoter and owner Charlie Levy organizes an ever-changing roster of groups such as Jockstrap (experimental pop), Krooked Kings (indie beach-rock), Youth Lagoon (dream pop, neo-psychedelia) and Lastlings (electronic pop). Meanwhile, the venue’s in-house Mexican restaurant Cocina 10 wins respect for its elote, molletes, ceviche, and barbacoa tacos." - Nikki Buchanan
