Jeffrey Martin
Permanent Records Roadhouse1906 Cypress Ave, Los Angeles 90065
Jeffrey Martin is billed for a solo night at Permanent Records Roadhouse, presented by Sid The Cat. The event listing names Martin as the only act on the lineup, with no guest, support artist, special program, release celebration, tribute, or late set announced. The show takes place in the Roadhouse’s Cypress Park space, where the live room shares a building with Permanent Records’ working shop and bar. It is a 21+ event.
Martin’s listing describes an artist drawn to “quiet and stories” since childhood, recalling him hiding under the covers with a Discman. It also says he wrote his way through a writing degree and a teaching career, though the available text cuts off before offering further biographical detail. No web-search result was available here to substantiate where he is from, collaborators, recordings, or critical reception. What the listing does establish is a songwriterly focus on narrative and stillness, making this billed solo appearance a chance to hear those concerns presented directly.
Permanent Records Roadhouse folds a live-music room, full bar, and working record shop into one Cypress Park stop. The front room’s wood paneling, checkerboard floor, and red booths frame a stage, so you can settle in with a drink and browse records before the set; shows share the space with comedy and DJ events. Behind the bar, a separate converted garage holds more vinyl, including bargain crates, while a patio offers room to step outside. Some show nights bring a taco stand, though food is not guaranteed. The former Cafe NELA building gives the place a link to a long-running local music room, now paired with Permanent Records’ crate-digging identity. It is at 1906 Cypress Avenue, and entry is 21 and over. Check DICE for tickets and show details.
