SUMMARY:Atmosphere Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:In November of 2021\, we hosted a premiere for our documentary Paralyzed to Peaks at La Paloma Theatre. It was our first time ever showcasing a film at a theatre. and it was such a special experience bringing people together. This inspired us to give local artists a place to feature their work and share stories of their own. In December of 2022\, we hosted our first ever Atmosphere Film Festival\, a curation of art\, music\, and film for the community. We showcased artwork from 7 local artists\, premiered films from 9 directors\, and enjoyed a live music performance from our friends The Wide Eyed Kids . Since then\, the event has grown into a two-night experience and become an annual highlight in Encinitas. The Atmosphere Film Festival will return to La Paloma Theatre in January of 2026 for the 4th rendition. Tickets are now available!

SUMMARY:José James presents 1978: Revenge of The Dragon
DESCRIPTION:Jose James\n\nJosé James is both conductor and conduit. Across 17 years as a singer\, songwriter\, bandleader\,\nand producer — not to mention co-head of the fearless Rainbow Blonde Records since 2018 —\nhe’s dived deep\, over and over again\, into genres\, eras\, scenes\, and songbooks\, exploring with\nthe verve of a reverent musicologist\, and then churning it all up with the confidence of a master\npractitioner. Blessed with a silken baritone that sounds classic against any backdrop\, James first\nturned heads on his 2008 debut The Dreamer by subtly swirling contemporary jazz with hip-hop\ninstrumentation. As it turned out\, mixing those two fluid\, frenetic\, and frequently time-travelling\nstrains set off a deeply soulful discography that knows no bounds. There was his stunning Blue\nNote breakthrough No Beginning No End (2013)\, recorded with fellow genre upsetters like Pino\nPalladino and Robert Glasper. There was an album of standards\, For All We Know (2010); the\nrock-addled While You Were Sleeping (2014); and that time he ditched the bands and became a\nmodern R&B star for Love in a Time of Madness (2017). He’s also taken a Method approach to\ncovers projects — even matching his wardrobe to his subjects’ worlds — like 2015’s Yesterday I\nHad the Blues (Billie Holiday)\, 2018’s Lean On Me (Bill Withers)\, and 2023’s On & On (Erykah\nBadu). He’s released dynamic live LPs\, a Christmas set\, and a four-album series inspired by\nhooky\, funky\, disco-dipped songcraft of the ’70s\, culminating in his latest\, 1978: Revenge of the\nDragon (2025). That last one is as immediate\, unpredictable\, and vibrant as anything James\nhas made\, affirming the mantra in the lead single’s title: “They Sleep\, We Grind.”
