The Westside is a bit light on live music offerings in the years since COVID. Some classic venues closed up and haven’t really been replaced. But less choices isn’t always a bad thing, it’s actually condensed the options and made it easier for the cream to rise to the top. In Venice, the Venice West carries the torch with heady touring acts and a kitchen that serves throughout the night. Closer to the beach on Windward, the Townhouse’s basement speakeasy, Del Monte, features everything from DJs to indie bands in a vintage setting.

Santa Monica delivers with Harvelle’s Blues Club, the oldest live music venue on the Westside (almost 100 years old!), hosting blues, jazz, and R&B since 1931. The Santa Monica Pier used to host weekly free summer concerts, but those got too popular and ended up blowing the spot. McCabe’s Guitar Shop is great for catching blues, folk and acoustic performances in a uniquely intimate setting. Over on Lincoln, blink and you’ll miss it, a hidden local gem called TR!P serves beer and has local bands almost every night of the week.

It might be stretching the boundaries of “Westside” since its east of the 405, but The Cinema Bar in Culver City is worth mentioning for it’s long time dedication to the performing arts, despite its postage-stamp sized stage.
