LA LOM
The Plaza at America First Field — Sandy, UT

LA LOM is a Los Angeles-based indie pop project built on understated melodies and the kind of production that sounds effortless until you realize how carefully considered every element is. The project emerged in the mid-2010s with a distinct lean toward synth-driven arrangements and introspective vocals that feel like they're meant for late-night headphone sessions. Their work trades in the familiar indie pop currency of wistful hooks and atmospheric texture, but avoids the overly precious approach that sinks a lot of similar projects. There's a coolness to LA LOM's restraint, a refusal to oversell even the catchiest moments. Tracks like "Comedown" showcase their ability to build tension through sparse instrumentation before letting things breathe, while deeper cuts reveal an artist interested in texture as much as song structure. They've developed a solid following among people who appreciate pop music that trusts the listener to stick around for the subtler moments.

LA LOM's shows are intimate even in larger rooms. The crowd leans quiet and attentive, paying actual attention to the spacious production. Energy is contemplative rather than euphoric, with people clustering closer to the stage during quieter moments. There's a distinct lack of phone-in energy.

Known for Comedown, Losing It, Paper Thin, Ghost, Velvet

LA LOM rolled through The Depot in February 2024, bringing their particular brand of atmospheric indie-pop to Salt Lake City. The set moved through their catalog with the kind of careful precision their songs demand—those layered synths and hushed vocals that somehow feel both intimate and expansive in a room. They hit the crowd with deeper cuts alongside the tracks that've built their following, the kind of show where you notice people getting quieter as things progress, leaning into it. The encore felt earned, not obligatory. It's the type of performance that sticks around in a city's concert memory, the ones people reference later when talking about shows that actually landed.

Salt Lake City's indie and electronic music scene has quietly developed real depth over the past decade. The city sits at this interesting intersection where bedroom-pop sensibilities meet a genuine appetite for atmospheric, introspective stuff—exactly LA LOM's lane. Venues like The Depot have become reliable spaces for artists working in the more textured, less immediately flashy end of the spectrum. There's an audience here that gets what LA LOM does, that understands the value in restraint and space within a song.

Stay in the Avenues neighborhood—tree-lined streets with actual character, close enough to downtown but removed from the noise. For dinner, Lazy Dog in Sugar House serves exceptional Colorado lamb and maintains a wine list that doesn't insult your intelligence. Spend an afternoon at the Natural History Museum of Utah in Red Butte Canyon; the building itself is architecturally stunning and the collection gives real context to the landscape you're actually standing in. The city's proximity to actual mountains matters when you've got downtime.
