HOW WE DOLA WITH DE’WAYNE: PLACES TO UNWIND

We’re asking locals what they’re actually into lately. They pick the topic, we share the list. Every Friday, new person, new subject, maybe a new friend?

When DE'WAYNE moved to LA about 8 years ago, he was working on his music career in between shifts at a pizza shop in the Valley. Now, the funk-rockstar is in the midst of rehearsals for back-to-back summer tours with Machine Gun Kelly and Lenny Kravitz.
