Los Angeles is quickly becoming the music capital of the world with its unique variety of live music venues. Adding to the vibrant mix of nightlife options arrives The Bellwether: an exciting new live music and nightlife hotspot in the heart of Los Angeles that features a variety of genres. This independent venue is a must-visit for any music lover looking for a good time.
The Bellwether‘s 2023 lineup has been announced, featuring Phantogram‘s first L.A. show in 3 years on July 11th. Other upcoming shows at The Bellwether include HAIM, Buscabulla, TYCHO, Panda Bear and Sonic Boom, and a 3-day takeover by Porter Robinson.

“It’s been so exciting working on building this inaugural lineup, I could speak for hours on my appreciation of each artist but I think the lineup speaks for itself,” says Nick Barrie, The Bellwether’s Head Talent Buyer. “It’s going to be even more special when they finally take the stage in this incredible room.”
