Sounds of Summer at 2nd & PCH
2022-08-02 18:00 - 20:00
The Sounds of Summer music series brings live musical performances from an eclectic mix of Southern California artists and genres every Tuesday evening 6 – 8 p.m. on the grand staircase, July 12 through August 30.
On August 2, Tomorrows Bad Seeds will perform.
Cultivated in The South Bay of Los Angeles, Tomorrows Bad Seeds is the musical embodiment of surf and street culture; a perfect blend of hip hop, punk, reggae, rock and soul.
Since TBS’ inception in 2001, the band has shared the stage with a number of well known artists, such as Willie Nelson, Slightly Stoopid and Pennywise, and has performed at some of the biggest music festivals in the U.S., including Vans Warped Tour, Cali Vibes and BeachLife. Off stage, TBS has co-written and produced work with songwriter Tim Myers (formerly of OneRepublic), producer Damon Elliott (Bone Thugs-n-Harmony), and most recently, jack-of-all-trades, DENM.
While the band has always been known for an extensive touring schedule, the pandemic that hit in early 2020 offered up a unique opportunity for a change of pace and a shift of focus. TBS utilized the unforeseen downtime to write and record new music, purchase and open a storefront in San Pedro, CA, and ultimately, re-emerge on the scene completely rejuvenated and independent.
The band hit the ground running in 2022, wasting no time releasing multiple singles, and playing shows in numerous states across the country. With more shows already scheduled everywhere from Colorado to the Virgin Islands, as well as plans to release an album in the near future, Tomorrows Bad Seeds is undoubtedly a band to keep an eye and an ear on.

All are welcome to join the corpse parade and all the fun for free before and after the Zombie Walk.
Interested in real zombie makeup? Extreme zombie make-up artists will begin at noon, for a fee. First come, first served. Pricing may range from $20-$100 from these special effect experts. Face-painting for kids will also be available.
Trick-or-Treating kicks off at 4 p.m. when you can join fellow flesh eaters for a family-friendly festival with free candy from all the Shoreline Village tenants. Bring your own treat bag to fill-up. Because a Halloween party is not complete without costume contests, a team of Shoreline Village scary afficionados will name the Best Costumed Family, Best Little Zombie, and Best Zombie Couple for fabulous prizes including up to $100 in gift certificates.
Restaurants and shops will be open for regular business, and many have some Halloween specials brewing. Several fun selfie stations will be available for festive photos along the harbor.
The highly anticipated return of the Long Beach Zombie Walk starts at 6:30 p.m. at the Nautilus Shell. Founder of the event, Logan Crow, will lead the band of misfit monsters to Shoreline Village. The parade of the undead will shuffle, stumble, walk, to Shoreline Village to end the evening with more festivities. Beware of some official scarers along the route!
“We expect to see about 500 people participate in the Zombie Walk, like it was for ten years before COVID forced the event to go on hiatus,” said Debra Fixen, Director of Property Management for Shoreline Village. “Once they make it to Shoreline Village, they can enjoy our main stage with live music and dancing, and of course the restaurants will remain open.”
The musical line-up on Shoreline Village’s main stage starts at 4:30 p.m. and continues until approximately 10 p.m. featuring the following local indie groups:
4:30 p.m. Wormstew (moody pop duo)
5:30 p.m. Velodrone (the grunge-like sound of the 90s)
