RSVP Now: SIDEPIECE, Aluna & Kaleena Zanders | Beatport Live LA

Beatport Live LA returns to Downtown Los Angeles on January 29 for its first show of 2026, kicking off the year with a lineup built for high-voltage house rhythms, soulful energy, and big personality. 

Opening the night is powerhouse vocalist-DJ Kaleena Zanders, setting the tone before the chart-dominating duo SIDEPIECE and the visionary British artist Aluna take over behind the decks. The latter two have recently joined forces on a forthcoming tech house heater titled “Misbehave”, which drops the very next day on January 30. Consider it perfect timing to get a little unruly on the dance floor before the record hits streaming.

A vocalist-DJ with a voice that can crack open a dance floor like a gospel thunderbolt, Kaleena Zanders is truly magnetic. With roots in gospel, rock, jazz, funk, and R&B, she shows up with a mic in hand and enough soul to make a room levitate. Fresh off a whirlwind year that included three Coachella 2025 sets and support slots for names like AC Slater, Tchami, LP Giobbi, and Two Friends, her momentum feels unstoppable. She’s also penned and voiced massive dance cuts (including a Billboard Dance Airplay No. 1 with the track "VIBRATION"), proving she can write hooks as hard as she can belt them. In the booth, she turns every show into a communal release, like a Sunday service for the rave-curious.

When Nitti and Party Favor teamed up to form SIDEPIECE back in 2019, they accidentally created one of the most in-demand house acts on the planet. Within a couple of years they had a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording, half a billion streams, sold-out tours, and the most supported dance track in the world in 2020. Regularly featuring on and smashing the Beatport charts – with their Westend collaboration "Take Your Place" currently sitting at #10 – they specialize in precision-engineered, high-confidence house built for big moments and bigger reactions. If your hips start moving before your brain catches up, you’re probably in a SIDEPIECE set.

Multiple worlds into her artistic transformation, Aluna has spent the last few years reinventing the rules of house and dance-pop on her own terms. After breaking globally as one half of AlunaGeorge, her solo era has centered on identity, futurism, and the dismantling of old genre borders. She describes her creative universe as a form of rebellion and rebirth, where club music becomes a space for new ideas, new communities, and new voices to lead. On stage, she radiates bright, global dance energy – the kind that makes you feel like you’ve just stepped into an alternate timeline where the outcasts run the dance floor.
