For the sake of breaking up the vast regions of Los Angeles, we are categorizing the Eastside as everything east of the 5 Freeway. For Silverlake and Echo Park, check the Hollywood/Downtown LA page.
The Eastside of Los Angeles has long been a vibrant hub for musical expression, hosting an eclectic mix of venues that cater to diverse tastes and communities. From intimate DIY spaces in Highland Park to historic theaters in Boyle Heights, this area cultivates a unique musical landscape that represents the city’s cultural richness.
Local venues like Zebulon, and the Lodge Room have become cornerstone establishments where both emerging artists and established acts connect with audiences. These spaces offer everything from indie rock and punk to Latin alternative and experimental electronic music, reflecting the neighborhood’s multicultural identity and artistic spirit.
Beyond traditional venues, the Eastside music scene thrives in unconventional spaces – backyard shows, art galleries, and community centers often transform into temporary concert venues, creating an underground network that nurtures grassroots musical movements and fosters community engagement.
Past Shows on the Eastside:
