The purpose of Fuck Yeah Fest is to bring together independent artist and musicians of all styles and genres into one area for a night of goodtimes. Everything from stand up comedy to hip hop to folk to spoken word to straight up rock to a fucking 60?s soul group. Our goal is to make it that any average joe can come down to Echo Park and enjoy themselves for an evening free of charge. Yes, this fest is free. That shows you how amazing we are. This will be taking place Friday, July 2nd and will be starting at 7pm.

The Mae Shi

That's just a few to name. The bands listed are all smaller LA acts with a decent following. There will be well name headliners but they will not be announced till the night of the show due to this being a free show. Also at the Echo peeps will be spinning records all night long, it?s going to be a fucking dance party.
also, afterwards at 2am till god knows when at a location off 7th and rampart there will be a party with Subtitle and two special guest bands. Ask someone and you might get the directions but you won't find out who is playing till the day of the show. It's a secert.
