Featured Photos: Hotel Cafe Tour, Fonda Theatre Hollywood CA - Nov. 18, 2008

The Hotel Cafe Tour wrapped its 4th full-length outing in front of a sold-out crowd at Hollywood's Fonda Theatre last week.

The tour is an offshoot of the influential club, a Hollywood mainstay for years that's become a local launching pad for artists like Joshua Radin , Rachael Yamagata and Sara Bareilles.

On Tuesday (11/18), the revolving lineup of the tour offered up Yamagata, Emily Wells , Lenka , Thao Nguyen, Meiko and JayMay, each doing their own sets and joining in with each other at various points.

The result proved a powerful mix, with Yamagata easily holding down the headliner slot with her honey-and-whisky voice showcased over a selection of songs from her two full-length releases.

In other highlights, Emily Wells' inventive hip-hop beats and vocal loops with classical violin broke up the pace in her two mini-sets, while Thao Nguyen rocked things up with the strong house band. Here are some photos from the show.
