Bird Calls with LilI & Lono
The Bamboo Club3522 East Anaheim Street, Los Angeles 90804
Bird Calls returns to The Bamboo Club for its weekly Mai-Tai Monday session, hosted by resident DJs Lili Bird and Lono Calls. The pair’s set is billed as a soundscape rather than a conventional band performance, moving through Exotica, Latin, Surf, Lounge, Jet Set and World Music, with room for sounds beyond those labels. It is presented as an adventurous musical journey alongside Mai Tais and pono grinds, making the night a recurring part of the club’s Monday programming rather than a one-off concert.
Lili Bird and Lono Calls are identified in the listing as the resident DJs behind Bird Calls. The available information does not give biographical details such as where they are from, earlier projects, collaborators or recordings, but it does establish their ongoing role at Bamboo Club: they host this weekly program and shape its wide-ranging selections. Their names connect the billed Bird Calls event to the DJs responsible for its mix of lounge-oriented, surf, Latin and global sounds. No reviews or additional career background are provided in the available material.
The Bamboo Club’s defining draw is its mash-up of Long Beach tiki culture and a working local music calendar: after dinner, live performers and vinyl DJs bring music fans into a room designed by third-generation tiki builder Bamboo Ben Bassham. Expect bamboo-lined walls, vintage tropical details, booths and bar seating, with additional outdoor seating under a tent and a private patio. It is a restaurant and tiki bar as well as a show venue, so you can make an evening of cocktails and food before the music; the event listings range from free DJ nights to shows with a cover or advance tickets. Check the listing for your particular show, since prices and arrangements vary. The club’s current events page and own site identify it as operating at its Long Beach location.
