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.

Santa Cruz-based Americana band Flypaper Blues is straight out of your grandfather's rifle barrel.  A little whiskey, coffee grinds, 2-in-1 oil, and a whole lot of fiddle, driving drums, and bass rhythms. This 100% homegrown, local band brings influences from traditional bluegrass, post-punk, ragtime, to alt-country genres.  Songwriting is personal, comedic, and inspired by the existential need to transcend the hazards and pitfalls of modern life with soul-nourishing music.

Calista Harms is back to take us down memory lane. Her set is a historical vignette of the late 80s and early to mid-90s—inserting delightful touches of both vintage and modern hits. Her youthful, personal renditions of these great songs are refreshing, nostalgic, and inspiring. Calista also writes and performs her own original compositions, which are crafted with the precision of a true poet and an alternative/post-alternative historian.

As she heads into her sophomore year at the Conservatory of Music at Purchase College in New York, Calista also serves as a guitar and singer/songwriter instructor at the School of Rock. Her sessions offer a heartfelt mix of covers and original music, influenced by artists like Lana Del Rey, Amy Winehouse, and Kurt Cobain.

Come support change!! September 19th, 7pm.
This is the Public Hearing to bring our events space back to life! 809 Center St!
If you believe that Santa Cruz benefits from our community space, then please join at our public hearing in support to reactivate it!

If you care but cannot make it, emails and calls may be sent to: cityplan@santacruzca.gov or 831-420-5110.

We want our space to continue being utilized for outdoor entertainment as an accent to good times, makers markets, cultural festivals, fundraisers et al!!

In October 2023, nearly one year ago, we received our cease and desist from the City of Santa Cruz to stop having entertainment outside. It was only after a solid 3 years of offering our space to the community without a problem or complaint, that we felt frustrated and disheartened. When something works, why not just let it work?
In hindsight, it’s clear that it took a Pandemic to turn this city inside out.
When Covid hit, no one knew what to do to stay in business besides put tables and chairs outside if you had the space to. The city turned Inside out.
Now look around. We’re about half-way caught up with the rest of the entire world—finally allowing for outdoor dining in fresh air. And what next?! Outdoor entertainment with fresh air? It’s an absurd thought—that one or two naysayers could prevent an entire city from having a little fun, enjoying music, throwing markets and fundraisers, providing jobs and education, silencing comedic laughter and book talks and poetic voices, quieting the sharing of cultures.

This hearing is what we fought for, what we paid unjustly for. We hope to finally bring this space back to life for the community so please show up in support 🙏🏼

Painted Mandolin Trio performs at Woodhouse Blending & Brewing in Santa Cruz on Saturday, November 16 from 7:00 to 10:00 pm! An exciting night of dancing with plugged-in acoustic originals, reupholstered covers, and reimagined medleys. No cover for this rare live music experience! 🍺💃🎸🍄

"The concept of PM (whose name references the Garcia/Hunter composition Ruben and Cherise), was born out of mutual love and direct affiliation to the musical leanings of Jerry Garcia."

About Painted Mandolin Trio:

Larry Graff - Guitar, Mandolin, and Vocals. Larry is the founding member of the world famous Banana Slug String Band. For 36 years, the Slugs have toured North America, bringing Eco-Science to kids and families. His maturity as a songwriter and musician, contributes to Painted Mandolin's creative edge.  A Deadhead for 44 years, Larry always brings his experience, knowledge, passion, energy, and love to the stage.

Making his home in Santa Cruz, CA, he is the lead guitarist of Painted Mandolin, the China Cats, and Spirit of ‘76.  Matt teaches music privately and enjoys a weekly residency that he created and curates called  Grateful Sundays at Felton Music Hall in Felton, CA. His signature style, vast knowledge of the Grateful Dead canon - and beyond, brings a fearless & soulful address to the sound of PM. 

Dan Robbins - Dan Robbins lives for the bass. A full-time professional bassist, educator, and recording artist since 1997, he brings a lifetime of knowledge and skill to both the upright and electric bass of almost every variety. He teaches bass at both SJSU and Santa Clara University. A passionate and skilled performer, he maintains a busy schedule as the bassist for the Gary Meek band. "I've played with many bassists in my 40 + year music career and, without question, Dan Robbins is one of THE most technically advanced and musical bassists I've ever known." - Joe Craven

Woodhouse Blending & Brewing is an evolving project created to bring Santa Cruz more small batch craft beer, and showcase amazing talent and creativity.

The Grateful Dad's of Santa Cruz share their own love of the Grateful Dead with their friends and community. We focus on the aspects of the music that inspire kindness and the deep sense of community that spawned a lasting movement and put the twinkle in Jerry's eye.
This is a no cover charge event of 3 hours of Grateful Dead tunes by one of Santa Cruz's best GD cover bands. The music will be indoors so this is a rain or shine event. Woodhouse Brewing offers plenty of seating, room for dancing, excellent food and craft beverages. Join the Party!
