Fin’s Seafood Grill operated at 982 S Westlake Blvd in Westlake Village, California. The now-closed restaurant previously carried the Village Bayou name. In addition, that address places the engagement in the commercial corridor running through Westlake Village. The setting gave Fulton another Southern California room for live keyboard work during this period.
Westlake Village setting
For geographic context, the City of Westlake Village notes that modern development began with master planning in the 1960s. Incorporation followed in 1981 for the Los Angeles County portion. Fin’s Seafood Grill occupied a Westlake Boulevard address inside that community. Fulton’s appearance joined the area’s broader restaurant and live-music activity.
Meanwhile, Fulton’s live work during this period extended well beyond a single restaurant. His keyboardist and pianist credits list additional appearances across Southern California and elsewhere. Fin’s nevertheless became one recurring Westlake Village stop. The restaurant’s repeated bookings created a recognizable thread in his performance calendar. Across these Fin’s appearances, Fulton worked with saxophonists, singers, drummers, bassists, and unidentified partners on different dates.
Even within a long run at the same restaurant, the engagement remains specific. Fulton’s keyboard role stayed consistent, while the other musicians and payment details varied. In addition, those changing combinations give each Fin’s appearance its own identity and keep the account focused on what actually happened rather than adding unsupported performance details.
