Janky Smooth - The Physics of Genre

Since 2014, Janky Smooth has covered the Los Angeles music scene without any dedication to any particular sound or aesthetic. Our music blog follows the genesis of organic movements in music that are born in neighborhoods that span between San Diego and San Francisco and the journey all along the way to the rare times that stars ascend their block and gain popularity at a global level. From the backyard to the arena, our music blog was born to fight FOMO and be at the show when you can’t make it. Visit us regularly here or @jankysmooth across all platforms for weekly ticket giveaways, artist interviews, and all the best photos and reviews from last night’s show.
