Neon Neon
Slim’s ~ Friday 6/28
Have you been missing the Super Furry Animals over the past couple of years since going on hiatus in 2010? We got a little hold-me-over for you on Friday the 28th at Slims. Neon Neon may be the temporary fix for the alt-rock lover in all of us, as this act features Gruf Ryhes and Boom Bip from SFA. Touring behind a spring release, Neon Neon bring their pop tinged electro-hop to the US, and will feature Seventeen Evergreen and Mohani as the opening acts.

The Mother Hips
The Independent ~ 6/28 & 6/29
The Mother Hips are Northern California rock and roll legends, simply put. San Francisco is lucky enough to get a 2 nights stand at the Independent this weekend, and you can win tickets to be there to rock the fuck out. Tim Bluhm and band have been active for over 20 years, and have stayed relevant and thrilling throughout this storied history with a heavy psychedelic-tinged roots-rock sound. Jackpot handles Friday’s opening duties, while Acacia will hold down the Saturday slot.

Wildcat! Wildcat!
Brick and Mortar ~ Saturday 6/28
Los Angeles heat-seekers Wildcat! Wildcat! will be holding court at the Brick and Mortar Music Hall on Saturday the 29th, and you have a chance to be a part, minus that whole economic part. Sultry beats and serious vocal harmonies define this trio as swirling synths build to peaks and dip into valleys, all the same. Local act Maus Haus is an added bonus to this night of music on the fringes of the Mission.
