BUY TICKETS: Glass Beams at Ventura Music Hall (8:00pm)

Welcome to another week of live music in Los Angeles, Scenestar readers. We're actually heading north this time to the Central Coast to check out our pick for Show of the Night: Glass Beams! The Indian-Australian multi-instrumentalist recently opened for fellow Aussies RÜFÜS DU SOL this past weekend at the Rose Bowl, but now Melbourne's Glass Beams has their own headlining show tonight at Ventura Music Hall.

If you can't get into the show or want to check something else out from a different genre, your other live music and entertainment options include performances by BJ Barham (of American Aquarium), Bill Burr, Deon Cole, Nik Ewing (of Local Natives), Henry Hall, Dave Harrington, Dan Levy, Adam Sandler, TheBrosFresh, and many more.
