About Chicha Xperimental

ZZK Records brings a Peruvian chicha celebration to The Airliner with DJ sets from Tribilin Sound and DJ Sabroso, a live performance by Lxs Cochinxs, and a gallery presentation of vintage chicha poster art by Alfredo Villar. Lima street artist Monky adds a live artistic intervention to the night.

At The Airliner

Lincoln Heights’s underground legend comes disguised as a 100‑year‑old dive bar. Wood‑grain glow, vintage banquettes, and a patio that could’ve hosted every late‑night revelation in the neighborhood. Now reborn with pan‑Asian izakaya bites that hit harder than your ex’s mixtape (think Chongqing wings, triple‑onion noodles, rendang on brioche) and cocktails with actual revisits, not just rebrands. Upstairs, the ghost of Low End Theory finally got its wings back: a refurbished listening room steps in with hi‑fi warmth, DJs, live music, and real skin‑in‑the‑game nights.
