Scott Helman at The Moroccan Lounge

Scott Helman is a Canadian singer-songwriter who writes hooky, emotionally direct pop and rock songs, and on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, he plays The Moroccan Lounge in downtown Los Angeles. If you are scanning LA concerts for a midweek night that feels personal rather than arena-sized, this small room is a good match for his voice and guitar-driven songs.

When: Tuesday, November 17, 2026, 6:30 PM Where: The Moroccan Lounge, 901 E 1st Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012 Tickets: Through Ticketmaster (the price is listed on the ticket page)

What to expect

Helman first broke out in Canada with a run of radio singles and has since moved between bright pop, scrappier rock and quieter, confessional writing. Live, that range tends to translate into a set that swings from sing-along choruses to stripped-back moments where the room goes quiet to hear the lyrics. A club this size means you are close enough to see the guitar work and catch the between-song banter.

The Moroccan Lounge is a standing-room club with a stage, a bar along the side and a few booths, so there is no assigned seating to plan around. Arriving early gets you a spot near the front. The time on the ticket is when doors open, and music usually starts 15 to 30 minutes later, so expect the opener first and Helman later in the evening. Check the ticket page for the full lineup and any age limit before you go.

Getting there

The club sits on East 1st Street at the edge of Little Tokyo and the Arts District, and the Little Tokyo / Arts District Station is about a five-minute walk, which makes transit the easiest option on a weeknight. Street parking nearby is limited, and there is no venue lot or valet, so build in extra time if you drive. The surrounding blocks have plenty of ramen, izakayas and coffee spots for a bite before doors.

Live music in Los Angeles runs every night of the week, and a Tuesday show is a nice way to get a good spot without the weekend crush.
