Click Here for Pre-Sale   Guest List Free until 10:00  Guest List Subject to Change This Event is 21+   Bass Jackers Best friends since high school, DJ, Marlon Flohr, and producer, Ralph van Hilst came together in 2007 to create the Dutch duo known as Bassjackers. Marlon, the wild and outspoken half of Bassjackers, lives for the spotlight and being on stage performing for massive crowds. His counterpart, Ralph, on the other hand, is laidback and introverted, preferring his behind-the-scenes role as producer. Their opposing personalities are a perfect combination for this unique one dj-one producer collaboration.The duo exploded onto the scene and in 2011 their dancefloor bomb “Mush Mush” was picked up by Tiësto and released on his label Musical Freedom. The track dominated the Beatport top 10 chart for over two months and was one of the biggest festival tracks of the year. This was a sign of things to come.Since then, Bassjackers have reached massive new heights in their career with numerous chart-topping bangers and hit collaborations with the likes of Martin Garrix, Afrojack, KSHMR, Dyro, R3hab, and Showtek, to name a few, as well as remixes for A-list artists including Rihanna, Enrique Iglesias, Moby, and Ne-Yo. At the top of their game, Bassjackers continue to tear up stages worldwide and wow crowds along the way.

Sam Outlaw @ The Wayfarer
Sep 10 @ 9:00 pm – 9:00 pm

with Cale Tyson, Reverend Baron The futures bright for the young Angeleno And an old song plays in his headFar as he knows. . .These lines from the title track of Sam Outlaw’s debut album Angeleno could almost serve as a haiku- like artist bio. Outlaw is a southern Californian singer-songwriter steeped in the music and mythos of west coast country, absorbing the classic vibes of everything from ’60s Bakersfield honky-tonk to ’70s Laurel Canyon troubadour pop and refashioning them into a sound that’s pleasurably past, present and future tense.The music I play, I call ‘SoCal country,’ says Outlaw. It’s country music but with a Southern California spirit to it. What is it about Southern California that gives it that spirit, I don’t exactly know. But there’s an idea that I like that says – every song, even happy songs, are written from a place of sadness. If there’s a special sadness to Southern California it’s that there’s an abiding shadow of loss of what used to be. But then, like with any place, you have a resilient optimism as well.While he explores those shadows on the title track and the elegiac Ghost Town, Outlaw mostly comes down on the side of the optimists through Angeleno’s dozen tracks. Opener Who Do You Think You Are? breezes in with south of the border charm, all sunny melody wrapped in mariachi horns, while I’m Not Jealous is a honky-tonker with a smart twist on the you-done-me-wrong plot. Love Her For A While has the amiable lope of early ’70s Poco, Old Fashioned the immediacy of a touch on the cheek, and the future Saturday night anthem Jesus Take The Wheel (And Drive Me To A Bar) shows Outlaw has a sense of humor to match his cowboy poet nature. Throughout, producers Ry and Joachim Cooder frame the material with spare, tasteful arrangements, keeping the focus on Outlaw’s voice. And it’s a voice that indeed seems to conjure up California in the same way as Jackson Browne’s or Glenn Frey’s. Easy on the ears, open-hearted, always with an undertow of melancholy.Outlaw’s journey west began in South Dakota – he was born Sam Morgan -with stops in the midwest before his family finally settled in San Diego. Like many artists, he got the music bug early. But he had serious restrictions on what he could listen to. I grew up in a conservative Christian home, he explains. My first real communal experience with music was in church. I always loved harmonizing with other people. And even though I was technically not allowed to listen to the radio, my dad loved the Beatles. My mom loved the Beach Boys and the Everly Brothers. So we listened to oldies radio, and I think got my first sense of melody and harmony from that.After what he calls an unfortunate high school cover band (We did almost all Oasis, he laughs) and some early stabs at songwriting in college, Outlaw’s moment of revelation arrived via the classic country voices of Emmylou Harris and George Jones. When I first heard them, it totally blew my mind, he says. I went out the next day and bought Pieces of The Sky and a George Jones compilation. It was the first time I felt like I had a real special connection with music. That’s when I started to get more serious about playing the guitar and writing.After switching gears from a day job in Ad sales to pursue his passion, Outlaw marked the change by borrowing his mother’s maiden name for a stage moniker. The initial impetus for using Outlaw was no more than, ‘Hey, this is a name that sounds country and it’s a family name, so why not?’ he says. Now, with my mom having passed away and her being a really strong encouragement in my life towards music, I like using the name as a way of honoring her.He wasted no time doing his mom proud. A self-released EP in 2014, buzz about his live shows, slots at Stage Coach and AmericanaFest, a video on CMT. Meanwhile, as he prepared to self-produce his first-full length album, his drummer Joachim Cooder played some rough demos for his father, legendary guitarist Ry Cooder.When Ry expressed interest in working with me, it was just, ‘Holy shit, I can’t believe it!’ says Outlaw. I mean, there’s no sweeter person to make a ‘country music in Southern California record about Southern California.’ He’s a master of so many genres.To get familiar with the material, Cooder sat in with Outlaw’s band. Before we got in the studio, Ry had already played four shows with us. It helped him curate which members of my band would work best for the live tracking. I was thinking that we’d have five rehearsals before the studio, get everything super tight, then go in and knock it out of the park. But Ry said, ‘The band knows the songs. Let’s leave some room for life to happen when we get in there.’ I liked that he had faith in the players and the songs that we didn’t need to over-rehearse. And throughout the sessions, he was on top of every nook and cranny of the arrangements. Recording in Megawatt Studios in Los Angeles, with a band that included Bo Koster (My Morning Jacket), Taylor Goldsmith (Dawes), Gabe Witcher (Punch Brothers) and Chuy Guzmn (Linda Ronstadt), Outlaw heard the album he always dreamed of coming to life. Ninety percent of what you’re hearing is still the five of us in a room performing a song, he says. Ry plays on every song, electric and acoustic on the basics. And then all the overdubs he did were just insanely beautiful. He was able to make magic happen on every track.The resulting record has the timeless feel of those that inspired Outlaw. It is also almost defiantly non- trendy. Does he worry about fitting in with a country scene teeming with bros and Bon Jovi wannabes? This whole debate about what country music is or isn’t, bro country versus traditional, americana versus ameripolitan, it’s all pretty boring to me, he says. I think I made the distinction of SoCal country because I know that people crave classification. Ultimately I think that the music will speak for itself.As Outlaw gears up to support Angeleno with tour dates opening for Dwight Yoakam and Clint Black (Two of my heroes, he says), he’s hopeful not only for his own record but a comeback of the music he loves. I’ve made it a personal mission to remind people how great country music is, he says. And specifically, I want to remind them that Southern California has a really rich history with country music. Even though there hasn’t been a scene here for a long time, there has been a noticeable resurgence. If I can be involved in some kind of revival in the spirit of this music, that would make me very proud.

Red Scare on Sunset @ Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse
Sep 11 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

The Costa Mesa Playhouse continues its 52nd season with Charles Buschs Red Scare on Sunset, a campy spoof of the 1950s Hollywood Blacklist and the anti-communist paranoia of the McCarthy era. Performances are Sept. 9 through Oct. 2, 2016. The time: the fifties; the place: Hollywood, where film star Mary Dale finds the Red Menace invading her own Beverly Hills backyard. When she discovers that her husband has been lured into the local Communist party by way of a method acting class and that there is a left wing plot afoot to abolish the star system, Mary wages a private war to save her husband, her country and billing over the title. The McCarthy era is turned on its head in this novel take on a serious subject. Although Red Scare on Sunset premiered in 1991, it contains clear parallels to todays political climate. Charles Busch, who wrote the female lead for himself to perform in drag, tells his tale in the style of such red-baiting propaganda films of the late Forties and early Fifties as The Red Menace, I Married a Communist and My Son John. Red Scare on Sunset is directed by playhouse president Michael Dale Brown, and stars Jon Sparks as Mary Dale, with Julia Boese, Bill Carson, Angel Correa, Drew Fitzsimmons, Alexandra Moniz, Robert Moniz, Michelle Pedersen, and John Sturgeon. The playhouse is located at 661 Hamilton Street in Costa Mesa.
