Blu and Exile weren’t chasing the spotlight — they were building their own gravitational pull. On July 17, 2007, they released Below the Heavens — a debut that felt more like a sacred document than a first statement. Soul-soaked, sample-driven production. Raw, unfiltered vulnerability. No gloss. No gimmicks. Just truth pressed into wax. Early believers recognized it immediately. Underground purists and tastemakers hailed it as an instant classic. Limited to just 3,000 physical copies and leaked prematurely online, its scarcity only strengthened its mythology. If you had it, you understood. If you didn’t, you were already behind. Blu’s everyman reflections — grappling with faith, doubt, love, frustration, and ambition resonated deeply over Exile’s warm, golden-era-inspired soundscapes. Static in the samples. Dust in the drums. Pain and poetry in every bar. For the Okayplayer generation and beyond, it became a defining statement of West Coast underground hip-hop. The chemistry was organic. Introduced through Aloe Blacc of Emanon, Exile first witnessed Blu command a Los Angeles stage — hungry, electric, undeniable. One session became “Party ofTwo.” Then “Maintain.” Then a vision. A full-length statement. They knew it was special. By 2009, Blu’s momentum earned him a place in the XXL Freshman Class alongside Wale, Kid Cudi, B.o.B, and Charles Hamilton — proof that the underground could crown its own stars. But they never stopped building. The Albums That Followed After Below the Heavens, Blu & Exile continued to evolve together across four full-length releases, each expanding their sonic universe while preserving their unmistakable chemistry. Meanwhile, Blu expanded his catalog with one-producer masterpieces alongside Madlib, Evidence, and Nottz, while collaborating with artists such as Anderson .Paak, Talib Kweli, Your Old Droog, and Rome Streetz. Exile solidified his reputation as a producer’s producer with the modern classic Boy Meets World for Fashawn, experimental projects like Exile Radio, and production credits for Mobb Deep, 50 Cent. Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, and Snoop Dogg. Now, with nearly two decades of growth, experimentation, and refinement behind them, Blu & Exile return not as hungry newcomers — but as master craftsmen of their own lane. Their latest offering doesn’t feel like just another release; it feels like culmination. For longtime listeners, it’s a reunion charged with nostalgia and elevation. For new fans, it’s an invitation into a world where lyricism and soul still reign supreme. The foundation is solid. The chemistry is proven. And history has shown: when Blu and Exile connect, something timeless follows. Album Announcement on the way.

Triptides ~ Modern Haze

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 6:00 PM Show: 7:00 PM Triptides Over the last fourteen years and dozens of albums and singles, cosmic LA rockers Triptides have traversed a kaleidoscopic musical landscape of psychedelic rock, Laurel Canyon folk, and spaced out jazz pop — but each track can be traced back to the group’s leader, Glenn Brigman’s unique ability to craft and explore a seemingly infinite number of dimensional melodies and harmonies. With every line of Brigman’s airy vocals that dance across the tape and into the speakers, stoners, trippers and lovers alike are transported to a sweet and familiar place, lifted by chiming guitars, hypnotic drums, glittering pianos and hallucinogenic fuzz.Each Triptides recording is a personal reflection, an unexpected evolution and honest testament to The Song. And the next one will be no different. Catch Triptides live, and you’ll see a band that shifts shapes and moods like lightning in a bottle, fluidly and fluently turning up and turning out — always taking the audience on a trip.Either way, you’ll want to find them out there.Now hear this:Triptides has just linked up with Label 51 Recordings for new releases in 2025 and onward, and another chapter is being written for the California rock and rollers. Modern Haze Modern Haze is a psychedelic-tinged indie rock group based out of Philadelphia. Founded in Los Angeles in 2016 by songwriter Perry Martin, they released two EPs before relocating to Philly and releasing their first full length LP “Shorter Days” in 2025.
