Laguna Beach Live! presents The REAL LA LA LAND, a musical showcase from the perspectives of former jazz club bartender and singing waiter Dave Damiani and trumpeter Bijon Watson, who was featured in the Oscar-winning movie. Like Ryan Gosling’s character in the film, Dave Damiani and his group of talented jazz musicians are in pursuit of bringing back the class, style and swagger of iconic clubs like the 500 Club, The Copacabana, To Copa Lounge, and the Cocoanut Grove.

With stories of actual success and challenges working for such musicians as Michael Bublé, Justin Timberlake, The Jersey Boys, Steve Tyrell and many more... This show will captivate the audience with true experiences of being a working musician, singer or actor, in the entertainment and jazz community of Los Angeles. Many of the members in the show appeared in the film “La La Land” or were involved in the making of the film and its music.
