Turnover With Nothing & Trauma Ray
Down on Earth Tour
The Regent Theater101 West 5th Street, Los Angeles 90013
Turnover bring the Down On Earth Tour to Los Angeles, with Nothing and Trauma Ray also on the bill.
Formed in Virginia Beach in 2009, Turnover are a four-piece led by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Austin Getz, alongside drummer Casey Getz, bassist Danny Dempsey and lead guitarist Nick Rayfield. Their music has moved from early pop-punk toward a dreamier, melodically charged sound: Billboard called them “a moody, atmospheric indie rock band, without losing its knack for hooks.”
The Regent’s story as a 1914 movie house is still visible in its proscenium arch and surviving plasterwork, now framing a concert room with a sloping floor and second-floor mezzanine. Most shows are ticketed and standing-room only, though occasional seated events are marked as first come, first served; check your event listing for its format and door time, and buy ahead for popular dates, since some sell out. The room is set up for live music, with the mezzanine offering another view of the stage. Before the show, you can get wood-fired pizza and other bites at Prufrock Pizzeria inside the venue, or drinks at the attached Love Song bar. The Regent is on South Main Street in Downtown’s Bank District, a short walk from Pershing Square station.
