Daily Email - Thursday - 6/4/2026

June 04, 2026

One of my interns taught me this morning what a “house show” is. Apparently artists do like mini pop-ups in random houses throughout LA?? Who knew?? We’ll definitely be spotlighting those in our Locals Only section this summer… ‘cuz there Ain’t No Party Like A House Party.

Ya learn something new every day, and if Mozart makes babies smart, then this giveaway winner’s about to become a genius…

World-class singers performing Mozart’s famous arrangements, coupled with vintage comic strips (like Betty Boop, apparently) and pink elephants, and you’ve got LA Opera’s production of The Magic Flute. We’re giving away Orchestra-level or Founders Circle tickets for their Pride Night on Wednesday, 6/17!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Catch two of the smoothest acts in modern retro R&B at Lodge Room next Wednesday, 6/11! We’re giving away tickets to see Thee Marloes & Thee Heart Tones!

  • Country-rock outlaw Koe Wetzel rides into The GRAMMY Museum on Monday, 6/15 for a rare, intimate evening of stories, songs, and the kind of honesty that got him famous in the first place. Win your way in!

  • From GRAMMY-winning hits to jazz, bluegrass, and beyond, the legendary pianist Bruce Hornsby brings his endlessly inventive live show to the Troubadour for two nights next week. You could win tickets for both!

  • Vivian Sessoms can command a room with a single note. Catch the celebrated vocalist live at BroadStage in Santa Monica on Saturday, 6/20 for a night of soul, jazz, and pure R&B grace.*

  • Plus fresh announcements from YG, Men I Trust, Kayzo, and more!
