Studio series · Since 2022 · LA → Global
The flagship discovery engine.
Artists play music in real recording studios, connect with peers and industry, receive feedback, and walk out with content. This is the room where Lekan, Genwunner, and others stepped in before the world caught up.
Open series · Since 2022 · LA · London · Toronto · Palermo
One of the most in-demand creative experiences in LA, now global.
Hundreds of artists line up hours before doors open. Artists fly in from around the world. This is the front door of the community, the funnel that feeds every other format.
Community series · Since 2020 · Global
Intentional space to amplify women creatives.
Built in 2020 to ensure women artists had equal opportunity to be seen, heard, and developed. Not a sub-brand, a commitment. The room where women creatives lead the night.
Genre series · Alternative · Indie · Rock
The alt, indie, and rock lane.
A dedicated home for artists outside the mainstream pop/hiphop lane. Alternative, indie, rock, and genre-fluid performers who don't fit the standard open-mic profile.
Genre series · Funk · Soul · Dance
Funk, soul, dance, the groove lane.
For the artists whose music lives in the pocket. Funk, soul, disco, dance, and groove-forward performers get a dedicated room built around the sound, not squeezed into a general lineup.
International · London · Palermo
The world tour lane. LA to Europe.
The format that takes the movement overseas. June 2024 opened at Omeara London and landed at Averna Spazio Open in Palermo, where 1,240 people came out for a night of contests across three disciplines.
Production · Ticketed · 500-5,000+ cap
Ticketed concerts, tours, and full-production runs.
Beyond the series: we produce full ticketed concerts, headlining runs, and tour support. Venue, talent, staging, sound, capture, end-to-end under one roof.
