About this event

Alyssandra Nighswonger celebrates the release of her new album, “Will You Stay”, at the historic Rancho Los Cerritos in Long Beach, CA. Come gather under the towering 112 year old Moreton Bay Fig trees. Surround yourself with the green landscape of the historic Rancho Los Cerritos. Experience the full sound of the album: complete with dreamy harmonies, vibraphone, harp and melotron. The event also features poet, Derrick Brown, musician, Ellen Warkentine, DJ Lili Bird and DJ Lono Calls. Doors will open at 6:30pm, with the show beginning promptly at 7pm. Presale tickets are available now.

According to Nighswonger, “‘Will You Stay’ is a collection of songs made to aid in the alchemy of a broken heart. When you are weary of the world, may these songs provide a little sanctuary. Close your eyes, feel the warmth of your hand over your heart and know you are not alone and are holding a heart of gold.” The album was recorded in Long Beach at The Compound Studio, and features Antoine Arvizu, Lono Archambault, Lili de la Mora-Archambault, Heather Sommerhauser, Matt Hill, R. Scott Dibble, Slam, Joy Shannon and Fernando Perdomo. This album follows Nighswonger’s 2020 release, Nighswonger Sings Nilsson.

Derrick C. Brown is a novelist, comedian, poet, and storyteller. He is the winner of the 2013 Texas Book of The Year award for Poetry. He is a former paratrooper for the 82nd Airborne. He is the owner and president of Write Bloody Publishing, which Forbes and Filter Magazine call “…one of the best independent poetry presses in the country.” He is the author of eight books of poetry and four children’s books. The New York Times calls his work “…a rekindling of faith in the weird, hilarious, shocking, beautiful power of words.” He lives in Los Angeles.

Ellen Warkentine is a theatrical multi-instrumentalist composer/performer from Long Beach, CA, currently based in Brooklyn, NY. Her melodic work references avant-pop, early jazz, and vaudeville; her influences include Kurt Weill, Bjork, and Stephin Merritt. She is a long-time collaborator with the award-winning Four Larks Theatre. She is co-creator and composer of the absurd “fauxpera” LOLPERA, and has written music and musical directed for productions at The Garage Theatre in Long Beach, The Long Beach Playhouse, UCB, and Four Clowns, among others. She is currently at Gallatin NYU receiving an Interdisciplinary MA in music, theatre, and digital ritual. She is a proud teaching artist who has spent 15 years serving communities of LAUSD.

Rancho Los Cerritos is the only local, state, and national historic landmark in Long Beach, California. It is operated by the Rancho Los Cerritos Foundation in a public/private partnership with the City of Long Beach. The site echoes with the rich history of indigenous, Spanish, Mexican and American California. The 5-acre site contains beautifully preserved historic gardens which are open Wednesday through Sunday for visitors to enjoy.
