From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alexis Rivera is a music figure in Los Angeles, California who owns the management and promotion company Echo Park Records. He currently serves as the manager for Los Super Elegantes and Mickey Champion, and previously worked with The Blood Arm. Rivera also owned Little Pedro's, allegedly the oldest bar in Los Angeles. He has been profiled in publications including LA Weekly, LA Times, Flaunt Magazine, The Fader, Cover Magazine, Angeleno Magazine, and LA.com. In its 2006 feature on the most interesting people in Los Angeles, which included profiles on Sarah Silverman, Antonio Villaraigosa, Jack Black, Shepard Fairey, and Rick Rubin, the Weekly described Rivera as "the savior of Echo Park" and "a promoter in every sense of the word," adding that he had the ability to bring together disparate groups of people, including the "merry and fashionable, the trannies and gutter punks, the people who walk through life sideways, cholos and gentrifiers."
