"mssv is a true underground supergroup. A ferocious blend of the dissonant, the howling, and the mysterious." -Premier Guitar, Best Albums of 2023 "restlessly creative and wonderfully unpredictable." -Tinnitist, Top Albums of 2023 "a prime slab of improv-forged art punk - harkens back to the DIY days of yore while blasting their way into the future." -Nashville Scene
"Baggetta is a player of immense subtlety across all dimension, working with an impressive palette of tones … distilling Fripp's loopscapes with hints of John Fahey." -The Wire "No one has waved the punk rock ethos flag longer and stronger than the mighty Mike Watt. mssv is yet another in a long line of interesting right-turn projects for the bass thumping punk rock legend." -Illegal Foreign Objects "mssv have created something that only they could: an album that is so experimental, and yet still manages to be an evenly-paced experience that doesn't crumble under being 'out there'." -Distorted Sound "Human Reaction sprays shards of glittering glass-sharp guitar riffs in all the angular directions, just leaving space for Baggetta's poetry slam, then… slips into narcotic late-jazz minimalism, a fever vision anchored by bobbing bass." -Dusted Magazine

Malena Cadiz & Anna Ash
L.A. based folk artist Malena Cadiz & Country Rock'n'roll rebel Anna Ash (on tour together)
Doors: 7pm • • $10/advance • $12/door
L.A. based folk artist Malena Cadiz is a lady of the canyon waylaid at a suburban strip mall, acutely aware of how romance shines through even in the moments of grit and desolation. There's something Didion-esque about Cadiz's storytelling as she crafts deeply personal vignettes that reveal greater narratives about the world we live in, capturing the strange beauty and humor of day to day life. Growing up a second-generation Filipino-American, Cadiz bounced between living in the suburbs of Michigan with her mother and bustling Singapore with her father. "I always felt rootless, not quite belonging to either place." This longing for home and search for center rests at the heart of Cadiz's work. The Fader has likened her work to Karen Dalton and NPR compared her to "an earthbound Joanna Newsom, Cadiz has a voice that grabs you within seconds." Her songs have been featured on "Nancy Drew" (CW), "Lucifer" (Netflix), "REBEL" (ABC), among others.
Anna Ash writes songs of profound, startling, sensuous insight. Call it country, call it rock'n'roll, call it pulling off the road somewhere between Silver Lake and Bakersfield just to roll a cigarette, kick at the gravel, and brood. She's released four full-length albums, but has become widely known due to the success of her version of "Righteously," a song written by Lucinda Williams.

Lola Kirke
Pop/ Outlaw Country
Doors: 7:00pm • $20/advance • $25/door
Limited First Come seating!
Lola Kirke has played many roles as an actress ("Mozart in the Jungle," "Gone Girl," "Winning Time"), but as a musician her sights have always been set squarely on Country. "I don't totally get it either," laughs the London born New York raised Kirke. "But I've always been drawn to dynamic parts for women, and I can't think of any other genre where we can be mothers, heartbreakers, glamorous, gritty, drunk, tender, and everything in between all at once." Kirke released her critically acclaimed sophomore LP "Lady For Sale" on the much respected Third Man Records in 2022, and played sold out shows with the likes of Jenny Lewis, and Margo Price. Kirke's commitment and talent were clear enough to hitmakers like Aaron Ratiere (Miranda Lambert), Mary Kutter (Bailey Zimmerman, Nate Smith), and Jason Nix (Lainey Wilson), with whom she wrote the bulk of her latest EP "Country Curious." "Lola is a stunning combination of wildness, beauty, and humor, with a voice that digs inside my head and heart," says the legendary Rosanne Cash, one of Kirke's all time heroes, and her collaborator on "Karma. I honestly adore this woman and count myself both a friend and her biggest fan." Cash continues. After listening to Kirke sing, or catching one of her effervescent live shows, you'll be hard pressed to disagree.
