THURSDAY – The Bloc
Hit the music! Enjoy the live tunes under the urban city lights by local jazz artists!
Meet Sam Wilkes
Los Angeles-based composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Sam Wilkes makes fluid, meditative jazz filled with ambient and even psychedelic textures. A frequent collaborator of saxophonist Sam Gendel and eclectic composer Louis Cole, he made his solo debut with the 2018 full-length simply titled Wilkes on Leaving Records. While primarily known for playing bass, Wilkes is also proficient in other instruments such as guitars, keyboards, and percussion. He’s performed with acts spanning several genres throughout the Los Angeles music scene and has performed and recorded with Chaka Khan, Jacob Collier, Rufus Wainwright, Maggie Rogers, etc.

We believe in reinvention and discovery. We believe everything that comes before us shapes what we are now. And, we believe that connection is everything.
The Bloc is a vibrant, open-air urban center, a growing, inclusive community, a LEED™ certified Gold project, and an inflection point in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Encompassing a full city block along LA’s iconic 7th Street corridor, The Bloc connects the financial, fashion, jewelry, and theater districts – and the 7th Street Metro Center Station, where four DTLA lines converge. Offering a diverse mix of thoughtfully-curated shops, artisans, and premier retailers including a Macy’s flagship store, restaurants, bars, open-air green space, and entertainment, The Bloc is also home to the Sheraton Grand Los Angeles Hotel, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, and a 722,000 square-foot, creative-focused office tower.
An array of events from live music, dance, and theater performances to art installations, fitness classes, and food and drink tastings welcomes Angelenos and visitors from all walks of life – and anyone seeking inspiration, community, and connection.
