Down in Laurel Canyon

This event brings the spirit of Los Angeles' legendary Laurel Canyon to Edinburgh, offering a deep dive into the neighborhood's rich musical and cultural history. Attendees can expect an evening that evokes the canyon's 1960s counterculture heyday, when folk and rock musicians made it a hub for collaboration and creativity.

The program draws on the canyon's layered past, from its origins as a Tongva settlement to its transformation into a celebrity enclave during Hollywood's Golden Age. The atmosphere aims to capture the remote, rugged charm that once attracted movie stars and later became a local center for counterculture.

Beyond the music, the event explores the canyon's unique geography and wildlife, including its famous mountain lion. It's a chance to experience the essence of a place that has inspired artists and shaped American culture, all without leaving Edinburgh.
