The Fold

“Starting out at the Silverlake Lounge, the Fold continually books bands that are on the brink, jolting LA’s burgeoning underground music scene to new levels of visibility.” Flavorpill LA

We take pride in finding, incubating, and showcasing new music, whether local, national, or international. The Fold continually scours L.A’s tinsel-strewn streets in order to present the finest in new music, such as locals Grouplove, Local Natives, Tom Brosseau, Matt Costa, Ditty Bops, Cold War Kids, Bird and the Bee, Benji Hughes, Silversun Pickups, Autolux, Earlimart, Metric, B.R.M.C., and Devendra Banhart as well as being the first L.A. club to host touring acts such as The Head and The Heart, Broken Bells, Childish Gambino, Mates of State, Rufus Wainwright, Vampire Weekend, Pinback, Bright Eyes, Black Heart Procession, Deerhoof, My Morning Jacket, The Kills,  TV on the Radio, Polyphonic Spree, Fiery Furnaces, and Broken Social Scene among what must be at least three thousand more! Not to have mentioned numerous memorable shows from The Rapture, …Trail of Dead, Elliott Smith, Band of Skulls, The Breeders, Neko Case, and Jonathan Richman just to name names.

Although The Fold has been most closely associated with Silverlake Lounge (it’s where we started and has been the home to almost 3000 Fold shows), we now also present all shows at Bootleg Theater and a number of other Los Angeles locales big and small, chic and not even close to chic, but each with their own unique charms.
