This bar is one of the best places to see and hear live music in Santa Monica. With its minimal brick décor, 14 Below offers live music every night of the week. Whether it's a rock band, folk artists or a jazz group, the crowd is treated to an intimate performance here. But if music isn't on your agenda at the moment, shoot some pool in the back room. There's also a dance floor for you to play air guitar as the band on stage rocks out.
