Los Angeles Music Scene: Report on Save Our Stages Grants Update

Back at the beginning of July, I took a look at how the Shuttered Venue Operators grants were being allocated out to various venues in the Los Angeles area. At that time, $1.5 billion in grants had been provided across the United States out of a total of $16 billion that is available. 

At the time, here is what was known: 

Regent Theatre: $2.5M 

Lodge Room: $1.7M 

The Baked Potato: $0.4M

Since that time, $6.8 billion of that $16 billion has been allocated (42.5%). The list of venues getting grants have expanded, of course.

Teragram: $1.9M 

Orpheum: $1.7M 

The Mayan: $1.6M 

Whisky a Go Go: $1.2M 

Resident: $0.928M 

Zebulon: $0.875M 

Glass House: $0.873M 

Moroccan Lounge: $0.745M

I will admit that I find it interesting that Resident got slightly more funding than both Zebulon and Glass House. Zebulon (250 capacity) and Glass House (800) are far larger in size than Resident (210). The Resident does have a beer garden, but so does Zebulon (in a way) as well as a restaurant. I guess there are some high volume drinkers in the Art District.

Hotel Café, Troubadour and the Viper Room all appear to be waiting for funding. It is possible that they already got funding as the business addresses for those venues might differ from the venue address. A Troubadour did get some funding, but it is a Troubadour in Kentucky.
