Netflix's "Westside" offers an unscripted and deeply personal glimpse into the journeys of nine young L.A.-based musicians. Cameras capture the nine musicians as they develop an ensemble performance for a potential live showcase at an L.A. nightclub, but also capture each of them in their daily routine of multiple jobs, dwindling bank accounts and long-distance love. Each episode sheds light on their creative processes and personal struggles, interspersing cinema verité-style documentary footage with beautifully produced music videos featuring original songs. Stars Alexandra Kay, Leo Gallo and James Byous took to the BUILD stage to talk about the new Netflix Original reality series.
