Deerhoof: November 18th (TUE) @ Great American Music Hall // BUY TICKETS
Bay Area noise staples Deerhoof headline the Great American Music Hall on Tuesday night alongside the indie rock supergroup Crystal Skulls and Oakland’s own GO DARK. Promoting their twelfth studio album released on Polyvinyl Records at the beginning of this month, the punk rock veterans kick of the Western span of their tour making their only hometown stop at the Great American. With the current band members working on projects in several locations around the world, this tour marks an extremely rare chance to catch the band’s explosive live show in such an intimate venue and hear the new material from La Isla Bonita firsthand.
Contest ends Tuesday, November 18th at 1PM.
Cold War Kids with Avid Dancer: November 21st (FRI) @ Fox Theater Oakland // BUY TICKETS
Tapping into the gritty nature of the human experience, through the pervasive dialogue of rhythm and blues, Cold War Kids bring their modern interpretation of roots rock to the stage this Friday night at The Fox. Celebrating the release of their fifth studio album Hold My Home, the Fullerton, Calif., natives headline an impressive lineup that features ex-Marine, former fundamentalist Christian and percussionist extraordinaire Jacob Dillan, otherwise known as Avid Dancer. Fresh off the release of his debut EP I Want to See You Dance, which has been recognized as a meeting ground between “laid back synth and super cool scuzz”, Dillan’s sound evokes influences from Hot Chip, The Dandy Warhols and Elliot Smith. Be sure to arrive early to catch his distinctly-individual performance that’s sure to be gracing the stages of similar venues as headlining material very soon.
Contest ends Friday, November 21st at Noon.

French DJ and producer Fred Falke closes out the final date of his 2014 Fall tour this weekend at Mezzanine in SF with the cosmic disco ensemble Midnight Magic (live)!

The Chris Robinson Brotherhood: November 23rd (SUN) Great American Music Hall // BUY TICKETS
Formed as a side project by The Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson, CRB developed as an attempt to configure a California based house band, touring leisurely throughout the state simply “to have a good time and see where the music takes (them).” Three years later with a trio of albums under their belt, they return as Chris Robinson’s primary band to the Great American Music Hall this Thursday for a four night residency. Following up their 2013 five night stay at the venue, this weekend’s CRB run holds the high possibility of guest appearances from their immense repertoire of friends, family and Bay Area music legends.
Contest ends Friday, November 21st at Noon.
