"Ernie Silva" is hardly typical in any sense of the word. He is a product of Bushwick projects in Brooklyn New York. It was there Ernie got his first tastes of life in front of live audiences. As Ernie grew so did his taste for performing.At age 17 Ernie became fascinated with Flip Wilson, Freddie Prinze, and Richard Pryor. Consequently, stand-up comedy drew him back to the stage at places like Stand Up New York, The Comic Strip, and the Comedy Cellar. However, eventually his musical side came calling to be recognized.While embarking on his tutelage in guitar styles ranging from classical to blues (most of which he taught himself while sleeping on couches, and even a few nights riding freight trains around the country) Ernie found inspiration in the voices of Andres Segovia, John McLaughlin, Paco De Lucia, Son House, and Jimi Hendrix.Ernie went on to become the first member of his family to graduate college. He holds a Bachelor’s in Acting from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, and a MFA from the University of Southern California. It was then that Ernie developed his award winning world traveled solo show, “Heavy Like the Weight of a Flame.” His Storytelling prowess is a pleasure to watch. Show starts promptly at 8pm, early arrival suggested. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/619d4a70-a59e-11f1-8990-5d04d231a2dd-rimg-w1109-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/los-angeles/swaam-spoken-word-art-and-music/100001999129679687 - **Event Categories**: art, entertainment, music, comedy, spoken-word, performances, live-music, theatre, trips-adventures, open-mic, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 12.51, max: 55.2, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Los Angeles - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: THE BARBARA MORRISON PERFORMING ARTS CENTER - **lat**: 34.0058828 - **long**: -118.3316767 - **full address**: THE BARBARA MORRISON PERFORMING ARTS CENTER, 4305 Degnan Boulevard, Los Angeles, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: SWAAM Spoken Word Art & Music - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f802f82681acb58a68a3f63c0464f3a518e1f8523e32777d4f28c51712e6fedc-rimg-w1200-h907-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1788223515 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is SWAAM Spoken Word Art & Music being held? - **A:** SWAAM Spoken Word Art & Music takes place on Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 11:00 pm at THE BARBARA MORRISON PERFORMING ARTS CENTER, 4305 Degnan Boulevard, Los Angeles, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing SWAAM Spoken Word Art & Music? - **A:** SWAAM Spoken Word Art & Music is organized by Lorenzo Frank. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
