Matt Pless - Water Sign Language Tour w/ FolkFace and The Limes
The 4th Horseman, 121 W 4th St, Long Beach, CA, United States
**Matt Pless** is hitting the West Coast on tour with a stop at **The 4th Horseman** in Long Beach in support of his new album “Water Sign Language”!
Combining elements of folk, punk, pop and rock, **Matt Pless** can lyrically turn a phrase with the best of them and has been compared to some of the preeminent songwriters of our time.
A consummate performer with a high-energy stage presence, **Matt Pless** travels the road continuously entertaining and astounding his audiences. With guitar and harmonica as his tools of choice and words as his main characters, he has shared the stage with the likes of **Maroon 5, Rilo Kiley, Alkaline Trio, Arlo Guthrie, Bad Brains, Fallout Boy, All Time Low** and others.
Matt’s extensive touring schedule has taken him to Europe, and across the U.S. multiple times playing venues from bars to boxcars and basements and everything in between…wherever there are people to hear his music.
And almost anyone can relate to a **Matt Pless** song. His unique gift for writing lyrics and melodies that appeal to the core of the human condition is, like Matt himself, an experience.
Check out his new album that just dropped on [Bandcamp](https://mattpless.bandcamp.com/album/seeds-stems-vol-1) and [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/2v8IKB09svfWo16Lfb2gyu?si=yFzc31wmRgS0Ts__8d6B8Q). It’s a collection of some more obscure tracks and
re-recorded cuts.

2026-06-17 20:00 - 21:30 | Roxanne’s Cocktail Lounge, 1115 E Wardlow Rd, Long Beach, CA, United States
**Hollywood Murders Speakeasy** is a 75–90 minute immersive true-crime cocktail experience inspired by infamous Hollywood cases, including The Black Dahlia, Sharon Tate, William Desmond Taylor, and Johnny Stompanato.
The show combines theatrical storytelling, Old Hollywood atmosphere, and themed craft cocktails served throughout the evening. Each story is performed by actors in a speakeasy-style setting, with a cocktail tied to that chapter of the night. The format is intimate, low-load-in, and designed to work well inside bars, lounges, speakeasies, private rooms, or small theaters with bar service.
For the venue, the show is meant to feel like a premium date-night event: limited seating, strong social media appeal, and an experience that gives guests something more memorable than a standard night out. Cocktails are included in the ticket price, making the evening easy to package and promote.
The June 17 pilot will take place at Roxanne’s in Long Beach inside The Exhibition Room speakeasy, with the goal of proving the concept for future extended runs in California and beyond.

Speed Dating for Lesbian Singles at Steady Brewery
Dating in your 30s (and beyond) can feel… exhausting. Apps are hit or miss, DMs go nowhere, and finding someone who’s genuinely intentional can feel rare …especially when you’re craving something real.
This June, we’re doing things differently.
This speed dating experience is designed for lesbian / WLW singles ages 30 to 45 who are open to meaningful connection and ready to meet people in real life. Hosted at Steady Brewery in Long Beach, this thoughtfully curated evening blends great conversation, relaxed vibes, and just enough structure to make connecting feel easy and not awkward.
Think less pressure, more presence. Less swiping, more chemistry.
✨ What to Expect

Structured speed dating rounds with guided timing
Intentional conversation prompts (no “so what do you do?” panic)
A relaxed brewery atmosphere (drinking optional)
Time before and after to mingle organically
A respectful, welcoming, and grown crowd

❤️ Who This Event Is For

Lesbian / WLW singles ages 30 to 45
Women dating with intention (not boredom)
Women open to real conversation, curiosity, and chemistry
Women who are ready to kick off their summer with a potential boo

🚫 What This Is Not

A chaotic mixer with no direction
A loud bar scene
A guarantee of “the one” (but definitely a chance at something meaningful)

🍻 Drinks & Snacks
Your ticket includes one drink (n/a options available) and light snacks to keep the energy flowing.
🎟️ Tickets
Spots are limited to ensure balanced rotations and a quality experience.Advance ticket purchase is required.
