Punk, Folk and Country Collide at Brixton’s 10 Year Anniversary Show

June 6, 2015, 10:52am

Southern California apparel brand Brixton celebrated its tenth anniversary with a show at downtown Los Angeles’ historic Regent Theatre last week with a room full of friends and visionaries and a killer lineup onstage. SoCal folk quintet the Drowning Men (for whom Brixton’s Jason Young was a founding member), MPLS post-punk trio the Blind Shake, Los Angeles County indie-rock upstarts together PANGEA, rising country-rock firecracker Nikki Lane, and Seattle punk veterans the Spits all came together to celebrate Brixton’s first decade in business. Started in 2004 as a moonlight enterprise by David Stoddard, Jason Young and Mike Chapin, all employees of the skateboarding magazine TransWorld at the time, Brixton has grown from its humble beginnings as a headwear brand birthed in Stoddard’s garage into a successful full service mens and womenswear line and a vibrant source of true California style.
