BUY TICKETS: Meshell Ndegeocello at the Lodge Room (7:30pm)

Live music is here to try to help us heal, Scenestar readers. It's a nice distraction if you're up for it and what better way than to take in the sounds of our Show of the Night: Meshell Ndegeocello! Singer-songwriter Meshell Ndegeocello will be kicking off her very brief L.A. residency tonight at the Lodge Room in Highland Park in support of her latest release, No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin. You can also see Meshell Ndegeocello live at the Lodge Room on Wednesday, January 15, at 7:30pm and 10:15pm.

Suppose you can't get into our Show of the Night. In that case, your other live music options include performances by Martin Amini, Chloe DeMore, Emery, Jon Lovitz, Kumail Nanjiani, Orion Shoals, Julius Rodriguez, and many more.
