Red Bull Sound Select night 19 of 30 Days In LA was not short of energy and feel good vibes with another night filled with amazingly talented artists. From the futuristic jazzy saxophone player Masego to the exciting electronic music duo, Snakehips.

Masego, a 23-year-old from Virginia by way of Jamaica destroyed the stage with his band, bringing his trap house jazz music to the Los Angeles crowd Saturday night. Blending southern trap-influenced beats with a jazzy undertone. His recent EP “Loose Thoughts” that released this past July, was the main soundtrack of his high energy set. Also playing some of your favorite artists’ current hits with his signature saxophone twist, such as “All the way-up “ by Fat Joe and Remy Ma.

Next up was Tennyson, a sibling duo with a unique laid-back feel to their music, had the Wiltern bobbing their heads with a smile. Brother Luke (pianist) and sister Tess (drummer) returned to the Red Bull stage in 2016 with brand new sounds. Their most popular song titled “With You” basically became a Soundcloud essential for anyone’s chill music playlist. Be on the lookout for new music from them soon, because everyone’s been waiting for it!

After was San Diego native ABJO. A producer, dj, and remixer from Soulection who got the crowd singing along to classic 90s R&B songs that everyone knows and loves. Continuing a brief west coast tour opening up for none other than Snakehips, ABJO played all types of music ranging from his Soundcloud crowd favorites to some of his classic remixes which you’ve probably heard before. His set was nothing short of high energy, good times, and just feel good vibes.

Headlining the 19th day of Red Bull Sound Select was none other than the British electronic music duo, Snakehips. Coming fresh off a North American Tour, Snakehips made a stop in LA and had the sold-out crowd jumping… I mean jumping! They played some of their most notable hits such as “All My Friends” and “Days with You” which racked up millions of plays on Spotify, while bringing out singer Sinead Harnett and surprise guests D.R.A.M and Anderson Paak. So much good music at once, what a time to be alive.
