The Anthony Arya Band!

Anthony Arya is an Americana performing & recording artist from the San Francisco Bay Area, California. A veteran of hundreds of live shows before turning 21, he got his first big break at age 15 as a contestant on The Voice. Coach Adam Levine said: "It blows my mind … I’m telling you right now, your whole situation, the way you engage with an audience, the way you sing — you are so special, dude. People are gonna fall madly in love with how you do it.”

Since then, he has released 4 full length albums winning national awards for his songwriting. From his soulful lyrics to gritty guitar riffs, some say Anthony Arya is at the forefront of the next generation of singer / songwriter / guitar-players once defined by musical icons like Neil Young and Tom Petty. The Anthony Arya Band with their signature Americana Rock sound, have quickly become popular across the Bay Area from Monterey to Sonoma including San Francisco’s major music hotspots. www.anthonyarya.com Listen Here: Anthony

Kelly Koval:

Following the sudden death of her Mom in 2019, Kelly Koval coaxed out songs in the solitude of Shut Down that would soon become her debut solo album, Wake. These songs, both coarse and tender, unrelentingly shine a light on the grief and gratitude that thrives in the aftermath of loss. Described as alternative folk, Kelly's music is highlighted by her emotive vocals and ruminating lyrics that search for clarity in the chaos. Her long awaited album marks a new era in her collaborative music career that will give listeners nostalgic reminders of the impact and expansiveness of unending love.

Bad Tiger:

Originally formed in 2018, Bad Tiger is a Bay Area-based music project. 

"There’s an irresistible charm about San Francisco’s Bad Tiger and her candid, no-holds-barred brand of indie pop" - Atwood Magazine “Bad Tiger have carved themselves an honest and vulnerable corner, playing sweet indie pop that is both upbeat and frank.” - HighClouds Magazine

Gable:

In the realm of melody, a luminary presence emerges—an enchantress whose voice, akin to whispered secrets, captivates the soul. With hues of melancholy and moments of ethereal clarity, she crafts sonic landscapes that stir the heart. A lyricist of profound depth, she also pays homage to the great musicians, weaving their legacies into her own tapestry of sound. Through her covers, she breathes new life into timeless classics, honoring the past while embracing the present.

Papiba & Friends

Anyone in town interested in traditional Brazilian dance music has certainly checked out SambaDá, the seven-piece local band that does it amazingly well. It was founded by Papiba Godinho two decades ago, just a couple of years after he moved here from Brazil.

But Godinho has another project he started a few years ago called Papiba and Friends with bassist Etienne Franc and drummer Gary Kehoe, which certainly has Brazilian elements, but veers from the traditional.
