GOWorth making a plan around.
Master Boot RecordTomorrowdanceuniqueindie
Sun, May 17 · Zebulon · Frogtown

It is a high concept live option: heavy, visual, nerdy, and electronic adjacent without being a standard DJ night.

MAYBEWorth comparing against your other options.
MajorTomorrowlisteningjazzvocal
Sun, May 17 · The Peppermint Club · West Hollywood

Strong vocal draw even if polished: big voice, R&B/pop crossover, and a small room Peppermint Club context.

Midnight EnsembleTomorrowdancejazzvocal
Sun, May 17 · Catalina Jazz Club · Hollywood

A good supper club/cabaret seed, but not yet a high confidence curated artist until cleaner personnel or recordings are confirmed.

MAYBEWorth comparing against your other options.
All The MadmenTomorrowindie
Sun, May 17 · Alex's Bar · Long Beach

NeoniNext 3 daysdanceindie
Tue, May 19 · The Roxy Theatre · West Hollywood

The El Rey room is a good stress test for whether her viral oddball pop charisma scales into a full live show.

TanerélleNext 3 daysjazzvocal
Tue, May 19 · Blue Note Los Angeles · Hollywood

Blue Note LA should flatter the atmospheric side of her catalog and put the voice up front.
