Bananas 3.91

BANANAS - We've been a "west coast apollo" if you will, our stage has been a proving ground & breeding ground to a wide array of talent showcased from all over the world.

Our event happens every 3rd Tuesday in Leimert Park/Mid-City at the former home of Project Blowed (which ran every Thursday for 14+ years). If you were good on our stage, we'd see you booked nationwide and beyond, if you were wack on our stage - you'd likely get greeted outside with a lot of angry and upset, hungry artists who feel they deserved to be on that stage more so than you. So you may get crowdsurfed out and jumped, but if you're dope your name would resonate among the streets and get you booked all over.

We've had write-ups in LA Weekly, been covered by KCRW, KTLA, and KCET and have been an active contributor to sustaining arts and music culture in Los Angeles with a shoestring budget, an open mind, making pennies with our event month after month.

Some of the people who've been to our space have been Kendrick Lamar, Vince Staples, Syd/TheInternet, Anderson Paak, Kali Uchis, Rass Kass, Slug/Atmosphere, Homeboy Sandman, The Alchemist, Dumbfoundead, Speak!, Fat Tony, Sahtyre, Gavlyn, Open Mike Eagle, Hannibal Buress, Nocando, Ho99o9, Hugh Augustine, and many many others.
