Over the past 10 years our little stage has showcased thousands of acts performing dozens of genres! From rockabilly to standup comedy, country music to Hip Hop artists. Many bands have performed their first show with us, and some are now touring the world! Special thanks to Lights Out Levine and Prima Donna for their ongoing support!
Other Great acts like Aaron “P-Nut” Wills from 311 with his project band and The Young Dubliners, have squeezed their festival style production onto our little stage. Thanks to the Lieberman brothers and Higher Level Productions for their ongoing support of TheVU and music in general. They’ve showcased bands; big and small, from near and far for many years! Their dedication to music, art and education has built them quite a reputation in the Santa Clarita Valley, and we’re proud to call them part of our family!
We’ve also had a number of great tribute bands shake things up! Groups like Boogie Knights, The M-80’s, Lights (Journey tribute) and The Young Guns! Along with dozens of local cover bands like One Night A Year, Alpha Rock, BarFly, Morning Wood and many more!
Now… if you’re into the Blues, there’s no better show in town, than our Sunday Pro Blues Jam! Over two years running, this troop of talented individuals have set a new standard for jams all over Southern California! I could fill two of these pages with the names of musicians and singers that have blessed our venue with their soulful notes! Great names like Coco Montoya, Preston Smith, Mikey Mo, Viva Vinson and many more… Definitely worth checking out.
Last but not least, I bow down our own in house bartender, event coordinator, promoter and talent wrangler; Will Diaz! This man has an ear for talent and a passion for music. He’s continuously kept our stage turned up to 11 with some of the most eclectic celebrations I have ever witnessed. If you or someone you know would like to book a show at The VU, this is the man that makes it happen.
