To Jesse Ray Smith, home is in the heart of California, as if raised by a family of tumbleweeds along Interstate 5, forever rolling with the Santa Ana winds. In his voice you hear the dust from the highway and the yearning of an old soul seeking redemption under the endless power lines. Jesse is a singer-songwriter, a husband and a father, dedicated to the pursuit of crafting timeless songs and records with his longtime writing partners Sean Cox Briar (Guitar) & John Varn (Keys).

His brand of Modern Americana blends current indie folk flavors with southern & heartland rock sounds of the past, harkening artists such as Bob Segar, Chris Stapleton, and Tom Petty, but also courageously exploring a deeper songbook, at times akin to Paul Simon and CSNY. On his 2023 album 'Back to Yesterday', produced by 2023 Grammy Winning Producer Tyler Chester (Best Folk Album), Jesse's top shelf band of road weathered Bay Area players delivers a unique experience best described as "Heartland Rock with Heartbreak Soul".

A Jesse Ray Smith live show is full of love and power that will leave your soul soaring and is not to be missed. Let’s take a drive from the coast to the desert with the top down

Water Tower was founded in 2005 by multi-instrumentalist & vocalist Kenny Feinstein. Formerly known as The Water Tower Bucket Boys, the name was changed to Water Tower in 2014 when the band relocated from Portland, Oregon to Los Angeles, California. While their lineup has evolved over time, Water Tower has maintained an ongoing reputation as a force to be reckoned with, with a growing horde of loyal fans known as “The Owls”.

Water Tower is fueled by Feinstein’s masterful song-crafting, fiercely DIY approach, and genre-bending sonic identity that fuses bluegrass/old-time revivalism with a distinctly punk-rock edge. The band's current lineup consists of Kenny Feinstein, Tommy Drinkard, Taylor Estes, & Jesse Blue Eads, and they are independently managed by Joanne Ledesma. The group divides their time between working on new material, practicing for upcoming shows & festivals, and busking at local freeway off-ramps. Busking has given them a unique platform & opportunity to hone their skills by the side of the road. Read more on Wikipedia.

Patrice Pike’s music defies genre, blending rock, R&B, soul, jazz, and world influences. More than a style, her sound is an experience—one that inspires, evokes emotion, and reflects the human condition.

Her well-crafted lyrics tackle tough topics like poverty and gun control, yet always carry a message of hope and resilience. Whether on vocals, guitar, or percussion, Pike’s music encourages compassion and celebration of life.

A Dallas native, Pike moved to Austin in 1992 and fronted the acclaimed jam band Sister Seven, earning Billboard recognition with Know What You Mean. After the band disbanded, she continued collaborating with guitarist Wayne Sutton, later forming Pike and Sutton and releasing Heart Is a Compass in 2020.

Following the pandemic’s impact on live music, Pike regrouped with Hunter Hendrickson and John Bush (formerly of Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians) to create new music, set for release in 2024.

She has toured with Blues Traveler, Sarah MacLachlan, the Allman Brothers, Dave Matthews, John Fogerty, Sinead O’Connor, and many more.

Grover Anderson & the Lampoliers – June 28, 2025 @ 7pm

Grover Anderson made his bones penning story songs about love and disappointment and death, like a modern-day Sherwood Anderson (no relation). But after years of telling strangers’ stories, on 2024’s Hold Tight Together he decided to look inward. “This album doesn't have anyone who dies in it, which is rare for me,” he says with a laugh. “Every song is about my life and my family.”

Anderson’s life begins and continues in the small town of Murphys, California, where he grew up on classic rock and Garth Brooks. After a stint studying theater at UCSB, Anderson found his voice on a European adventure, writing a song in every city he visited and marveling at the laughably simple notion that all these people and places he encountered would go on existing with no memory or care for his time spent with them. In 2014, he formed his band, the Lampoliers — featuring drummer Josh Certo, guitar player Marshall Henry, and bassist Dave Duggan — and released his first album, The Optimist. 2019’s The Frontman followed, then 2021’s Ode to Small Towns All the Lies That I Have Told. “If you work hard and make good stuff, people may notice,” he says. “But if you aren’t afraid of being told ‘no,’ you never know what will come of asking.” That mindset has seen him opening for America, Ty Bentli premiering the band’s single “Willie Nelson” on his Apple Radio show in 2021, and earning a slot at 2022’s Salmonfest in Alaska.

Hot Buttered Rum
Bluegrass from San Francisco, CA
The Official Bluegrass Band of the 2014 World Champion San Francisco Giants

“Stunning instrumental and vocal virtuosity.” - Relix Magazine

“It’s that working man regimen that ensures their consistency from one offering to another. That’s the kind of quality that makes Hot Buttered Rum always seem to go down so smoothly.”
– Bluegrass Today

Hot Buttered Rum, a souped-up, left-coast string band, is the brainchild of uniquely gifted musicians who weave their love of bluegrass, folk, jazz and soul into a riveting strain of Americana. String bass and five-alarm fiddle merge with guitar, banjo, mandolin, drums and keyboards to frame the voices of its two contrasting writers, fueling a dance party with roots in Appalachia and its branches in California. It’s a sound that’s as tough to describe as it is easy to love. Twenty years into its journey, HBR's music, dreamed up in the backcountry of the High Sierra and the basements of San Francisco, has found its way into the hearts, minds and bodies of fans nationwide. The band continues to tour year-round in support of its many albums and social causes. Don't miss the chance to see them soon!

Once upon a time, under an ancient Oak tree at Doc's house...
The Live Oaks band began in the hills of Oakland in 2016. In the backyard of a legendary doctor's home. Our friend "Doc" was a pioneer of free health clinics in San Francisco in the 60's-70's and also happened to be a lover of rock & roll. He even had Jerry Garcia as a friend and patient. He was widowed and chronically ill later in his life and preferred the company of musicians so he took us in. He provided a roof over our heads.

He let musicians live at his home for free as long as there was music and some good cookin'. He took care of us, and we took care of him. We danced and dreamed about rock & roll. It gave us hope. It gave the house in which we called "Bagshotte" life again. We sang for Doc, we wrote for Doc, we brought the best musicians over to the house to jam for Doc. A lot of our songs were written at his house in the hills. That was 8 years ago when we first moved in. He even purchased us an acoustic Martin guitar that we still use on stage to this day. But after years of battling cancer, he is gone now and has since passed away.

But since then we have not stopped writing music and refining our live show and recording processes. We have done it all. Toured in shitty vans up and down the west coast over many years (the vans improved eventually), playing for our friends and in small venues. But lately the venue sizes are starting to increase as well as our organic fan base. We really believe in word of mouth not social media app bullshit ran by billionaires. We believe in putting on a very good show, writing good songs and the rest will take care of itself. We have played dozens of small festivals, hundreds of shows, and on occasion welcome the corporate music thing, but lately are really focusing on writing, recording, and releasing more of our songs. Like Doc always cheered after we played him a song, "we're gonna be famous!"

The Coffis Brothers - August 9, 2025 @ 7pm

The Coffis Brothers, Kaw-fis Bruth-urs

With two songwriters, six albums, and more than a thousand shows under their belt, The Coffis Brothers have earned their reputation as modern-day torchbearers of all-American rock & roll. It's a sound caught halfway between amplified Americana, acoustic folk, roadhouse R&B, and electrifying roots music, crafted by a pair of California-born siblings who've been sharing the stage since childhood, and the five piece band filled out by their childhood friend, Kyle Poppen on lead guitar, and the rhythm section of Aidan Collins (bass), and Cory Graves (drums).

That sound reaches a new peak with Kaw-fis Bruth-urs. The band's third collaboration with Bay Area legend (and longtime Mother Hips frontman) Tim Bluhm, who serves as the album's producer, Kaw-fis Bruth-urs finds Jamie and Kellen Coffis letting their guard down, enjoying the creative ride as much as the destination itself. For every signature-sounding song like "Cut Right Through" — a heartland rock anthem built for highway drives and long horizons, as sunny as the band's Golden State homeland and as hook-driven as a Tom Petty classic — there's another track that stretches the band's sound into new territory. The result is The Coffis Brothers' widest-ranging album yet, running the gamut from bluesy, blue-eyed soul ("Face the Music") to jangling, harmony-heavy power pop (“Do You Want To"). "This is what we do, and we're giving ourselves license to evolve and get better at it, too" says Jamie, who was raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains of northern California alongside his mother — a children's musician — and his younger brother. Decades after Jamie and Kellen made their stage debut alongside their mom, singing three-part blood harmonies at a young age, their musical bond has only grown stronger, sharpened by hundreds of live shows as much as their shared DNA. "It's the natural evolution of us performing together and spending so much of our lives together," Kellen adds. "We didn't set out to make anything in one particular direction — we just wanted to make a batch of really great songs."

Poor Man's Whiskey - August 30, 2025 - 7pm

Poor Man’s Whiskey’s live show and sound is a blend of high octane old time/bluegrass music (often done on traditional acoustic instruments of banjo, guitar, fiddle, and mandolin) and a more psychedelic blues/jam rock style that calls upon their earlier influences such as Pink Floyd, Allman Brothers Band, and the Grateful Dead. Poor Man’s Whiskey seamlessly transitions between acoustic and electric styles with a carefully crafted commitment that revolves around well written songs and stories…while maintaining an exciting element of improvisation and the openness to let a song expand.
