The Story

Late-Nite Productions was first conceived in the small College town of Arcata, CA next to Humboldt State University in 1995 – Inspired by the Artists that rocked Brewin’ Beats Nightclub, such as SUBLIME, BARRINGTON LEVY, MERL SAUNDERS, JAMALSKI, NICODEMOS, THE BROWNIES, ROCK STEADY POSSE and more – LateNiteBilly took his passion for Entertaining and Music, made a career of it, and has been based in South Lake Tahoe, CA ever since.

Late-Nite Productions is a Concert / Event Production and Marketing Company, producing well over 100 Concerts and Events per year in several different Markets and in every genre of Music from Hip-Hop, Rock, Comedy, Country, DJ’s, EDM, Reggae, Ska, Jam Bands, Punk and more.
