Sage Francis: January 30th (FRI) @ Mezzanine // BUY TICKETS
Rhode Island rapper and spoken word poet Sage Francis returns to the City this Friday night after delivering positive vibes among politically-charged rhymes at The Independent back in June. Francis, who is a member of the contemporary spoken word movement, has been touring the world in support of his fifth and newest studio album Copper Gone, which he released last year on his very own label Strange Famous Records. Backing up Francis at Mezzanine will be Brooklyn underground hip-hop duo Metermaids, also on Strange Famous Records, and Oakland alternative hip-hop MC/producer and Anticon record label co-founder Jeffrey James Logan, better known by his stage name Jel.

Contest ends Friday, January 30th at Noon.

Rainbow Girls: January 31st (SAT) @ The Fillmore // BUY TICKETS
Bay Area ladies, this one is just for you. This Saturday night, The Fillmore welcomes Rainbow Girls, The Hot Toddies, The She’s and Kendra McKinley for its first-ever all-female show. Hailing from Santa Barbara and Sebastopol, the five gals who make up Rainbow Girls offer a gypsy-inspired mix of stomp folk, rock ‘n’ roll and Americana all rolled up into one sound. Just a few weeks ago, the band released its new song “Step Down From the Mountain,” and fans should get to hear plenty from its debut album The Sound of Light. The Bay Area will also be well-represented at the show, as Oakland indie/surf-pop outfit The Hot Toddies, which is celebrating their 10-year anniversary as a band, SF dream/surf-pop act The She’s and SF singer-songwriter Kendra McKinley will open things up.

Contest ends Friday, January 30th at Noon.
