Gino Matteo. Funky Funky Funky

Friday night.
The funkiest night of the week. Brought to you by Harvelles, courtesy of Gino Matteo and sponsored - in part- by the letters F-U-N and K.

Gino always brings the blues, the soul, the guitar histrionics and the tightest band I've seen at Harvelles in a while.


Gino doesn't hang around these parts often, so when he comes to rock the party, he does it big never limiting himself to one sound or style. His first set was over 2 hours and focused on blues. His second set was everything and anything funky… Meters, Michael Jackson, Booker T, soloing his ass off.


As he solo-ed off the stage into the crowd of revelers, he took the party to the next level.


Hail Hail Rock n Roll!
Hail Hail Gino Matteo!!

The Toledo Show

Harvelle's is your one stop shop for an evening on the town.

Located in the heart of Santa Monica's glorious downtown, Harvelle's provides the music, the cocktails, the sharp, beautiful crowd and the atmosphere. If you've never been, check it out; inside it's dark with red booths and an ample dance floor. The music is always great and it's pumped through an award-winning sound system.

See you there.

With a capital T and that rhymes with…

...P and that stands for....." Trouble? Vintage Trouble!

Tuesdays at Harvelle's is trouble.

Vintage Trouble is the name of the band.
You figure it out.

I've Got So Much Trouble In My Mind

Trouble Tuesday:

The night when kick-spit soul rockers Vintage Trouble set it off!

The night when high voltage rock 'n' roll lights up Harvelle's and the drinks taste extra good!

I experienced VT a couple of weeks ago for the first time and was impressed, to say the least.

The electric front man - Ty Taylor - will give you something to rebel against.

Don't start none - won't be none!!

Trouble, that is.
