Previous LA events have featured buzz artists like Das Racist, Boys Noize, Yelawolf, Light Asylum, Wavves, and Holy Ghost!

“The hip Check Yo’ Ponytail party in Los Angeles takes its most popular alumni on the road”-New York Times  

“Though it tends to favor electro, rock, and hip-hop most, the characteristics of a Check Yo Ponytail show go beyond genre limitations. Chan doesn't care what kind of music an artist or band makes as long as it's fun and adds to the whole tight-knit, projector screen visual-fueled, dance-minded feel of the evening.”- San Francisco Bay Guardian  

“The bill’s three best-known acts, Pictureplane, Big Freedia and Spank Rock, shook up any semblance of musical conventionality over hours of deep rolling bass and thundering boom-bap beats. Each set was backed by visuals (by Demonbabies) that worked to confuse and inspire a sense of the absurdity of songs like Freedia’s “Azz Everywhere!!!” - Denver’s Reverb
