Brothers Kevin and Tony Martin, along with longtime friend and musical brother Eric Hagstrom, blend jazz-trained chops with raw, soulful energy. The band’s roots trace back to music school and local gigs, but their sound and connection have deepened through years of touring and creating together. With two studio albums under their belt, Brainstory continues to evolve, fusing vintage soul, psychedelia, and modern groove into a sound that’s entirely their own.

This concert will also feature the Motown On Mondays LA DJs. Motown On Mondays LA (MOMLA) celebrates the timeless music created by Motown Records from the 1960s to 1990s.
