Thursday, November 3rd | Doors at 7:30 Show 8:15-10:30pm – INDIE MUSIC

Best Move (Park the Van Records) + Sven Forner

TICKETS

The cinematic folk-rock band, Best Move’s debut album, Relational Memory, fuses Jon Brion-esque melodies with the bittersweet sadness of Elliott Smith, with songs that let you in on the secret that getting older is bewildering, no matter your decade. Dreamy and unhurried, you’re in a liminal space, unsure if you want to look forward or back. Sven Forner plays folk, blues and indie rock and is also in multiple bands such as Heart Of The Whale, Jimmy Duvet and The Comforters.

Andrew Bundy and Tawnee Kendall

TICKETS

Andrew Bundy’s soulful vocals, confessional lyrics and keyboard-driven production draw comparison to Elton John, Billy Joel, Coldplay, and Rufus Wainwright. Influenced heavily by folk tunesmiths, musical theater, 60’s soul, 90’s R&B, and classical music, Andrew’s songwriting is rooted in personal storytelling, expressive melodies, rich harmony and social conscience – which he uses to humanize LGBTQ+ issues and promote social justice. Tawnee Kendall is a Nashville-style folk musician based in California’s Gold Country. Her live shows are electric and filled with high-octane performances punctuated by killer vocals and gripping story telling.

San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival w/ The Crooked Jades and Sylvie Simmons

TICKETS

The San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival is a multi-artist, multi-event celebration of the poetry, literature, and music of the late singer, songwriter, author, and poet. The Crooked Jades are known for their rare and obscure repertoire, inspired arrangements and eclectic vintage instrumentation with a vision to revive the dark and hypnotic sounds of pre-radio music. Sylvie Simmons’s songs are raw, tender, sensual and mesmerizing, played on a ukulele and sung in a voice that critics have compared with Hope Sandoval, Jane Birkin, Isobel Campbell and a young Marianne Faithfull – or in the Times’ review, “Reminiscent of a female Leonard Cohen.” She is also an iconic music journalist and the author of best-selling books that include biographies of Leonard Cohen, Serge Gainsbourg, Johnny Cash, Debbie Harry and Neil Young.

Garrett Pierce & Petracovich

TICKETS

Garrett Pierce pens songs that are literary in style with well-worked lyrics and a voice that soars over dark, ethereal melodies. “Petracovich mastermind Jessica Peters produces a hypnotic dreamtime soundtrack, like Aimee Mann fronting Sparklehorse with Beth Orton calling in plays from the sidelines, all misty insinuations and shimmering mirages, a surprisingly enduring album of muffled bedroom folktronica wrapped in the silken sheen of Peters’ subdued songbird voice.” – (Pitchfork Media)
