Sunset Blvd. came to life for Echo Park Rising last Saturday. Our favorite free local fest featured performances from bands, DJs, comedians and more — on proper stages like The Echo, to restaurant backyards like at Sticky Rice, to dockside at Piknik with Echo Park Lake’s swan boats as a backdrop.

Here are some of our favorite shots by Karim El Alfy.
