Old 97’s first emerged in the early ’90s with an adrenaline pumping blend of rock and roll swagger, punk snarl, and old-school twang that quickly brought them into the national spotlight. Conventional wisdom places the band at the forefront of a musical movement that would come to be known as “alternative country,” but, as the New York Times so succinctly put it, their sound always “leaned more toward the Clash than the Carter Family.” Fueled by breakneck tempos, distorted guitars, and wry storytelling, the foursome built a reputation for high-energy albums and even higher energy shows, earning themselves performances everywhere from Conan and Letterman to Bonnaroo and Lollaplooza alongside countless rave reviews.

Chico’s premier six-piece Dance-a-delic/Jazz/Funk/Rage ensemble, Smokey the Groove brings galactic grooves, a full horn section, and that booty-shakin’ bass straight to the dance floor—all for your party pleasure.

Pamela Parker’s Fantastic Machine is a high-energy rock band that blends soulful vocals, blazing guitar solos, and infectious grooves into a powerhouse performance. Fronted by Pamela Parker, a dynamic vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter, the band delivers a sound that’s equal parts classic rock, funk, and psychedelic soul.

Also taking the stage… The Gold Souls, Sacramento’s original cosmic soul sensation.

Through 25 years and eight independent albums, the last four on their own Right Coast Records, Ballyhoo! have earned the exclamation point which marks their name. Starting in the basement of their mom’s Aberdeen, MD, home, rocking out on guitar and drums respectively, practicing every day, brothers Howi and Donald Spangler formed the proto-punk band in the mold of Green Day and Nirvana, with an eye towards the emerging ska genre led by Goldfinger, Sublime, 311 and No Doubt.

So get your ass off the couch and come get some good vibes and positivity at a live show meant to take you away from real life…

Get ready to dance all night to your favorite Daft Punk hits & deep cuts + Kavinsky, Justice, Giorgio Moroder, French electro, disco, indie-dance and more.

In a world where the line between the living and the dead blurs...

This fall, prepare yourself for a Rainbow Girls show like no other. As the lights dim, and the fog rolls in, you'll step into a realm where shadows dance, and whispers echo through the night. Welcome to the “Haunting” album release tour—a spine-tingling journey into the unknown.

Feel the chill as each note reverberates through the darkness, see the spectral visions come to life on stage, and as the music swells, you'll find yourself drawn deeper into the abyss. But beware—once you enter, you may never leave. This isn't just a show… it’s a journey into the unknown, where every song beckons you deeper into the shadows.

Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe have been a dominating force in music for the past 25 years.

All-night, sold-out concerts during Jazzfest in New Orleans have featured sit ins by everyone from Lenny Kravitz & Steve Winwood to avant garde luminaries Marc Ribot & Boyfriend. Very few concert goers remain untouched by the Tiny Universe live. In addition to KDTU, Karl Denson aka “Diesel” is a founding member of the seminal groove act The Greyboy Allstars.

Trust us…. This is not a show you want to miss.

DENM, the SoCal musician, songwriter, and producer, has been a highly sought-after creative force in the indie music scene for over a decade. And like his most recent predecessors–Slightly Stoopid and Sublime–the twenty-something drops plenty of hazy daze optimism into his melting pot of youth culture and life experience, emerging with a 21st century soundtrack from SoCal’s sun-kissed sand, surf, and streets.

Dogs in a Pile merge funk, jazz, and rock ‘n’ roll with psychedelia, offering a completely original vibe built on kaleidoscopic soundscapes eerily reminiscent of yesteryear.

The Dogs employ a unified approach to performance and songwriting, crafting aural mosaics through adept instrumentation and humble precocity. As avid storytellers, they draw inspiration from personal experiences, balancing life’s foibles with ever-present youthful sanguinity.

Ezera returns with their powerful sound—a fusion of past and present that electrifies and captivates. If you’ve been waiting for a revival of Sacramento’s metalcore roots, this is your night.

Joining them is Yunger, a band with limitless energy and a sound that refuses to be boxed in. Expect something fresh, fierce, and unforgettable.

Mythnautica brings an otherworldly edge, blending mythic vibes with crushing riffs. If legends could play music, they’d sound like this.

Kyle is turning 50! Come celebrate your favorite pirate’s Birthday with an evening of one of his favorite bands coming to town JUST FOR THIS CELEBRATION!

The evolution of Boot Juice has been a magnificent phenomenon to behold. Over the past few years, this seven-piece band from Davis has done things the old-fashioned way. They’ve earned it all with blood, sweat, and tears shed on stages throughout the region. And it’s been more sweat than blood, based on the practically inhuman level of energy they generate throughout the course of their relentless performances.

Boot Juice defies the typical assumption that a big band with horns is sticking to the well-worn path of funk and jazz. They certainly infuse those genres into the mix. More than anything though, this is an unabashed cosmic rock band intent on taking audiences into an alternate dimension of pure freedom and dance euphoria where the outside world ceases to exist.

If you haven’t yet seen Cartoon Moon, we want to know why tf not!!! A local supergroup to behold, Cartoon Moon is not to be missed. You’ve been warned.

What better way to spend Halloween than a scary amount of crazy good music from Diggin Dirt at Lost on Main??!!??

From behind the redwood curtain of Humboldt County, California, the seven piece funk-soul band Diggin Dirt has carved out a niche as a live party not to be missed. Shoveling their own path, Diggin Dirt has seen sustained growth over the past few years, with multiple national tours and festival stops at Jam Cruise, High Sierra, Same Same but Different, Live Oak, Cascade Equinox, Joshua Tree Music Festival and many more.

Per a 2024 Jam Cruise writer, “This was the soul music I grew up with in the ‘60s and ‘70s, but I confess I wasn’t expecting [Diggin Dirt] to be throwing it down this hard. This group is impossibly tight, and Zach Alder might be the best soul shouter I’ve ever heard, and I’ve heard a few.”
