Greg Mendez w/ Maria BC
Lost Lake Presents Greg Mendez with Maria BC on Friday, August 21st. Greg Mendez has always been an economical songwriter – he wields restraint and simplicity as tools, the core of his songs sharpened into simple, cutting truths. On Beauty Land, his new album and debut LP for Dead Oceans, we’re guided by a wry but forgiving narrator, an underdog who has learned to balance cynicism and faith. These songs are self-effacing without self-pity, carefully constructed altars of imperfection channeled through pop melodies, shimmering but urgent guitars, and a voice that reaches for choir boy innocence. The bulk of Beauty Land was recorded directly to tape, almost entirely alone in Mendez’s makeshift home studio in Philadelphia – a small room with no natural light. It’s his first full length since his unexpected self-titled breakthrough in 2023, which was a slow burn success following 15 years of writing and recording music in relative obscurity between Philly and New York. Beauty Land picks up where we left off three years ago – plumbing the depths of grief, love, and addiction – but its intense, quiet clarity shows Mendez at his songwriting best. Parts of Beauty Land feel like a lucid dream, dented characters carve their way through a world that’s cartoonish and warped – the broken-clock march of “I Wanna Feel Pretty,” the chiming toy piano on “Gentle Love.” “Mary / Dreaming” begins as a sparse, finger-picked lament before cutting abruptly to a deflated, Beach-Boys-but-make-it-fucked-up resolution that brings both melancholy and joy; a sense that all things can be true at once. None of the 14 tracks here break three minutes, but they tell stories that span lifetimes. Death floats through the record, whether it appears as a memory or a threat. Everything feels precarious. There’s a fragility to how these songs are built: the way the funeral organ hits alongside the morphine on “Looking Out Your Window,” the devastating simplicity of “Frog,” with its slowed-down keyboard and bare refrain: “Please forgive me for my faults.” Beauty Land feels, at times, impossibly lonely. Which makes it really count when it doesn’t – like when Mendez sings in harmony with his wife and bandmate, Veronica near the end of “So Mean” and it feels like a cherished reunion, a fleeting moment of redemption, a temporary parting of the seas.

Sam Blasucci w/ Sam Burton
Lost Lake Presents Sam Blasucci with Same Burton on Friday, May 1 — Physical Dream is Sam Blasucci’s fourth studio album and first double LP. It’s a sensorial, immersive record that shimmers, shudders, and grooves with genre-blurring mastery. The 28-track album unfolds like a living body—nonlinear and dynamic, alive with cascading instrumentals, buoyant boogie rhythms, and a sound that is simultaneously groovy and poetic. Recorded over just two weeks on a remote island property in Sooke, British Columbia, Physical Dream was born close to the ground. Blasucci slept in a small shack on the land while working closely with engineer and collaborator Jonny Payne. Additional recording took place in studios across Los Angeles and Ojai, California. The album includes contributions from Mia Wilson (vocals), Randal Fisher (horns, flute), Andres Renteria (percussion), Laena Myers (violin, viola, vocals), and Leng Bian (harp). Aside from traditional instrumentation, the album also gives voice to the environments where the music was made. Night sounds recorded on Blasucci’s Ojai property appear on “WHO LIVES ON THESE LANDS.” Running water from a Big Sur waterfall appears on “ORCHIDS.” “SI SE PUEDE” includes audio recorded at an anti-ICE protest in Oxnard, California. These elements expand the album’s sense of space and relationship. Blasucci’s voice is deeply personal and human, yet constantly in dialogue with a wider living world—and asking it to dance. Lyrically, Physical Dream holds romance, mysticism, and political resistance side by side. Musically, the album feels like Leonard Cohen, Prince, and Brian Eno gave birth to a bilingual, fantastical, hypnotic phantom dance baby. Animated by introspection and motion, Physical Dream invites listeners into reflection and movement in equal measure. Born in Northeast Los Angeles, Blasucci has lived across the U.S. and Mexico, including Coahuila, New Orleans, and Orem, and now finds home in Ojai, California. He learned music from his father as a child and formed Mapache at age 20, releasing 5 albums before launching his solo career in 2023. Physical Dream will be released this spring on vinyl and all streaming platforms. All ages, ticketed guests under 16 ONLY ADMITTED WITH TICKETED GUARDIAN 21+ All sales are final.

Perry Maysun – A Very Pathetic Tour w/ Isaiah Poet
Lost Lake Presents Perry Maysun – A Very Pathetic Tour with Isaiah Poet on Sunday, June 21st. Perry Maysun is a 23-year-old alternative hip-hop artist from New York whose work explores substance abuse, mental health, and societal challenges with striking honesty and depth. His goal is to inspire listeners to practice self-compassion, encapsulated in his signature phrase, collective, and clothing brand, “BYOBF” (Be Your Own Best Friend). His music combines intricate and intimate storytelling with groundbreaking production, resonating deeply with audiences who have faced hardship of any kind. His creative vision also extends beyond music to include poetry, clothing, short films, paintings, sculptures, making each release a fully realized artistic experience. Perry’s dedication is unwavering. He has completed twenty four fully conceptualized albums, even while undergoing six months of chemotherapy, a full knee and partial femur replacement, and treatment for a life-threatening tumor in 2024. His work serves as a therapeutic outlet for listeners, consistently encouraging self-compassion and resilience. Perry is brutally honest about his past, with his music diving deep into his struggles with heroin addiction, multiple personality disorder, schizophrenia, suicide attempts, and being a victim of sexual violence. This, in addition to his transparency about fighting cancer, makes him relatable and inspiring to anyone. With his most ambitious release yet, Pathetic Beasts, Perry will unveil a 27-song double album that expands his world into something both deeply confessional and visually immersive. Anchored by eight singles, each tied to a distinct color representing the emotional core of the song, the project will transform themes like grief, rage, rebirth, isolation, and self-acceptance into a cohesive sensory experience across music, visuals, and artwork. On the upcoming tour, this concept will come to life as Perry will be painted a different color each night, embodying the spirit of a specific single and turning every performance into a living expression of vulnerability, resilience, and the album’s central message: be your own best friend.

Noah Guy w/ Brandon
Lost Lake Presents Noah Guy with Brandon on Saturday, April 25 — A self-proclaimed film school dropout, Noah Guy approaches music through a cinematic lens. The Philly-born, Los Angeles–based singer, songwriter, and producer treats each project as the soundtrack to his life — storyboarding songs like scenes and delivering them with raw, full-body emotion. Blending R&B, pop, and progressive soul, Noah pairs confessional lyrics with intricate, self-produced instrumentation. His breakout mixtape Who’s Taken Time?! (Act I & II) — recorded while couch surfing during his first year in L.A. — introduced his orchestral touch and fearless emotional honesty. He continued his evolution with the 2024 EP IT MUST BE LOVE, with singles “JAMEELA” and “LET U LEAD” (with Billy Lemos) surpassing 1.5 million streams and earning recognition from Apple Music 1 Radio as an “Emerging Artist” of 2024. In 2025, he released “My Loss” and “Again,” expanding his visual and sonic world and setting the stage for his next chapter. In 2026, Noah unveiled “Higher,” announcing his debut album MEMORIA, in blue — a 10-song journey through grief, growth, and acceptance, and a celebration of love, loss, and the beauty of feeling it all.

Playlunch
Lost Lake Presents Playlunch on Saturday, August 15th. WHO’S READY FOR A GOOD F*CKING TIME? “The Hottest Aussie band since Amyl & The Sniffers.” In 1964, a band of mod-suited mop-tops from Liverpool, England arrived on the shores of New York City and kicked off an explosion of Rock & Roll that historians would come to refer to as “The British Invasion.” And now, in 2026… The Aussie Invasion is coming. This summer the world’s pre-eminent Bogan Funk band Playlunch are setting sail for North America and bringing their unique brand of raucous dance tracks to the masses. https://youtu.be/7PTvxw4fc9M?si=Gk4KnDStsGh0NO8Z So what exactly is Bogan Funk? It’s basically what happens when a bunch of Aussie blokes who grew up playing INXS covers at the local pub set out to try and become the new Kool & The Gang. Think… James Brown meets Crocodile Dundee. Earth, Wind & Fire meets Amyl & The Sniffers. And it seems to be exactly what the world was waiting for… https://youtu.be/YBuVloFXQCw?si=mmldjhNm_SiDu9AJ With more than 30 million views across platforms, the Melbourne 7-piece have become one of the hottest acts emerging from the land down under. Placing #4 in Triple J’s Hottest 100 of 2025, their viral track ‘Keith’ has taken the band international – capturing even the attention of Canadian rapper Bbno$ https://youtu.be/ZpuzyEFnUG8?si=zMRo1oSpDEizE8Nn “Let’s face it, it’s a confusing time in America at the moment – and people could probably use a good night out” says frontman and bandleader Liam Bell. “We’re hoping to come over and give people something they’ve truly never seen before. Expect Pool Noodles, Speed Dealer sunnies, and a lot of colourful language that probably isn’t quite so endearing in the states as it is back home.” Set to be one of the most anticipated debuts of 2026, this tour is your chance to experience the once-in-lifetime spectacle that is Playlunch before the rest of the world finds out about them.
