When the sun goes down, Music Row gets quiet, and that's when the other stories come out. This neighborhood has seen more than its share of darkness. A music journalist gunned down, a case that stayed cold for years. A songwriter who vanished without a trace. Studios where engineers swear the faders move on their own, and old houses-turned-offices where the last person out doesn't always feel alone on the walk to the car. Behind the polished plaques and publishing houses, there are murders that were never fully explained, rivalries that turned deadly, and a few residents who — quite possibly — never actually left. Music Row After Dark is a night walk through the Row's murders, mysteries, and hauntings, told the way they deserve to be told: on the same sidewalks where they happened, in the dark.
