Saturday, September 19, 2026, 3:00 AM - 6:00 AM · The Mint, Culver City, Los Angeles
Cubensis, an LA institution since 1987, brings its Grateful Dead Music Experience to The Mint on September 18 with special guest Karina Dawn Line. The band draws from every era of the Dead and the Jerry Garcia Band, chasing the same spontaneous, exploratory jams that made the originals legendary.
A Fairfax staple where the stage is small, the talent is big, and you’re never more than a few feet from someone absolutely wailing into a mic. It’s part rock club, part industry watering hole, with red lights, strong drinks, and a crowd that ranges from “just here for the band” to “definitely scouting the band.” No frills, no velvet rope. Just live music the way it’s supposed to be: loud, sweaty, and dangerously close.
