The Bouncing Souls and The Suicide Machines at The Belasco

Punk shows rarely get a better night out than a veteran band, a ska-punk opener and a room built for sweaty singalongs. On Tuesday, February 16, 2027, The Bouncing Souls bring their Born To Be Tour to The Belasco in downtown Los Angeles, with The Suicide Machines and The Aggrolites sharing the bill. If you track LA concerts through the winter, put this one on the calendar early.

The lineup

The Bouncing Souls are a New Jersey punk band that has been touring for decades, known for shout-along choruses and an anthemic, working-class streak. The Suicide Machines come out of Detroit and helped define the 1990s ska-punk sound, with fast horns-and-guitars energy that still plays well live. The Aggrolites are an LA-area act built on Jamaican-style ska, reggae and soul grooves, so the bill moves from skank-friendly rhythms to full-speed punk.

Ticketmaster lists the show as a rock event, and the tour name, Born To Be, is billed alongside The Suicide Machines. Set times are not published yet, so check the ticket page closer to the date.

What to expect

Expect a crowd that knows every word. Bouncing Souls shows are famous for group vocals, so the floor tends to turn into one big chorus. With three acts, plan on a full evening of live music in Los Angeles rather than a quick set, and arrive early enough to catch the openers. Earplugs are a smart idea for the front of the room.

Getting there

The Belasco sits on South Hill Street in the downtown core, a few blocks from the Metro system, which makes it one of the easier big-night venues to reach without a car. Paid lots and garages are nearby, but they fill up on show nights, so book parking ahead or take the train. If you are building a list of things to do in Los Angeles this winter, pair the show with dinner in the neighborhood beforehand.

Doors and start times can shift, so confirm the details on the official ticket page before you go. More shows at this room are listed on our concerts page, and you can browse nearby picks in downtown Los Angeles.
