About this show

Jim E. Brown plays The Bellwether, a 1,600-capacity large club in Koreatown / Westlake, on Saturday, January 30. Also on the bill: Gary Wilson and Faux Real. The show starts at 7 PM. 18+.

Teenage pop sensation Jim E. Brown is an obese alcoholic who suffers from various degenerative conditions. Fresh off a string of sold-out shows across the world, Manchester’s beloved son makes his long awaited return to the American city of Los Angeles for a special one-off show. As a born and bred MancunianBrown’s sound understandably draws from Manchester’s post-punk and baggy tradition. Drum machines and synths shimmer like a crap New Order. He wails like the Fall’s Mark E. Smith, if Smith was a shame-ridden depressive. He rhapsodises like John Cooper Clarke, if Clarke was raised on YouTube brain rot. “Never heard of them,” says Brown.
