This one is truly homegrown. See Lucha Libre from Miss Rita’s Lucha VaVOOM and a band line-up curated by Charlie Paulson that includes local favorites Juan and Juanita, Donita Sparks, Slim Jim Phantom (The Straycats), Jennie Vee (The Midnight Cowgirls) and many more. The night will feature L.A.-centric songs as well as an art auction,  including work from Shepard Fairey and many more, with proceeds benefiting fire relief through some of my personal favorite organizations, including Grief x Hope and Best Friends Animal Society.
