Adanna Duru with Ant Clemons & Kennedi Tezano
The Echo1822 W Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles 90026
Adanna Duru is billed with Ant Clemons and Kennedi Tezano for this Echo show.
Duru is a Diamond Bar, California singer-songwriter and producer who reached the American Idol Top 10 after appearing on Adam Levine’s team on The Voice at 15. Her work draws on R&B, pop and Afrobeats, and she says she writes her own songs and co-produces most of them. Clemons is a Willingboro, New Jersey singer, songwriter and rapper whose collaborative work includes Beyoncé and Skrillex; his 2020 release Happy 2 Be Here received a Grammy nomination.
The Echo’s claim to fame is its track record as a launchpad for Los Angeles artists: its long-running Monday Night Music series helped early acts find an audience. Today it remains an active live-music club in Echo Park, in the upstairs room of a two-venue complex. The stage sits close to a compact general-admission floor, with a bar alongside; most events are standing, though seating may be available first come, first served, depending on the show. On-site food and drinks are available, and the venue recommends checking the individual listing for seating and age rules. Expect a ticketed gig with the crowd gathered around the performance, and room to step outside to the patio between sets. The venue is on Sunset Boulevard, amid Echo Park’s dining options.
