For years, I used to post most of my set lists. Then I stopped because I figured if people were that curious about what I’m playing, they would actually go to the party and Shazam (or, like, come up and ask me about) whatever song they don’t know. Now I’m rethinking that because Shazam doesn’t catch everything. Plus, I like having an archive and want people to actually know what songs are played. So, this is the set from Dolce Vita at The Mermaid on September 12, 2023.

What are you doing Labor Day Weekend? If you’re in Los Angeles, head down to Chinatown where I’ll be playing twice at Grand Star Jazz Club over the holiday weekend.

What a week this has been! Got to finish it at Underground, playing upstairs all night for the party’s Cure Night. The crowd was amazing and I have so much to say about that night, but I also have a deadline to meet for a story, so I won’t be able to write about that just yet.

Last week was wild. Between Disco Heat’s May the Fourth party on Thursday to a last minute gig playing Underground’s Depeche Mode vs. New Order night on Friday, the jams were flowing and the crowds on the dance floor were super cute.
Let’s keep the vibes going strong this week when Jus’ B and I head back for another night of Disco Heat at Songbird. We’ll be starting at 10 p.m. this week, right after the comedy show that’s preceding us.

There’s just one gig on my calendar this week and it’s one you don’t want to miss. So, head down to Songbird to join Jus’ B and I for a special Disco Heat on May 4.
May the Fourth be with you next Thursday night because Liz O. and Jus’ B are on the decks at Songbird in Chinatown for Disco Heat (and other galactic funk). Sci-fi vibes from 9 pm until last call. We’ve got Meco ready to drop alongside space disco, electro, Moroder, Cowley and more.
Find us at 900 N Broadway # 1050, Los Angeles 90012

Wow, thanks so much to everyone who came out to Disco Heat at Songbird last night. We had such a fun crowd. Special thanks to everyone who has taken the time to stop by the party since it went weekly in March and, especially, to those of you have helped spread the word. You’re awesome.
Jus’ B and I will be back next week with more Disco Heat for you from 9 p.m. until close. There’s no cover, but feel free to let us know you’re going on Eventbrite, Facebook or Instagram.

On April 6, you can catch me, Liz O., with Jus’ B at Songbird in Chinatown for Disco Heat.
Jus’ B and I have known each other for many, many, many years and recently started playing together in late 2022, when I launched Disco Heat at Songbird, and the vibe has been amazing. That said, if you haven’t been to Disco Heat yet, you really should check it out this week. And, if you have stopped by the party before, make sure you join us again this Thursday night.

Star Creature Universal Vibrations is a Chicago-based record label dedicated to “contemporary boogie” that’s been around since 2015. They first hit my radar a couple years after that, back when Salt Box Records had a brick-and-mortar in Chinatown and I picked up a new release from a Russian outfit called Venus Express II based almost solely on the cover art. As it turns out, the record was just as cool as the album sleeve, so now I consider Star Creature to be a mark of quality for funky, synth-heavy tunes.
