Sweetwater Music Hall, located at 19 Corte Madera Avenue, Mill Valley, CA 94941 (phone: 415-388-3850), is thrilled to announce its upcoming lineup of live music and special events. A registered 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization, Sweetwater Music Hall has been a cherished cultural destination since its founding in 1972. We present all genres of music, and shows are open to all ages and are generally standing-room only (unless otherwise noted). Doors open one hour prior to show time.

Watching them, it doesn’t hurt that the junior Allman and Betts share their dads’ genetic exteriors. Betts, in particular, has features that emulate his famous father. Better still, Devon and Duane’s voices have tone and timbre similar to Gregg and Dickey, and their guitar shredding and (for Devon) organ skills would make their papas and Uncle Duane proud. I’m still going to vote for Derek Trucks as the top of a very impressive heap in this generation of Allman Bros. spinoffs—but he actually played in the Allman Brothers, so maybe he doesn’t count. I suppose that bumps D & D up to the pinnacle.

This year's Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival (“HSBG”) in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park was—as usual, and as expected—a joyous and magical celebration for young and old, family and friends, musicians and music fans.

On August 13, 1975, The Grateful Dead played a show at the ridiculously small and distinctively decorous Great American Music Hall (GAMH) in San Francisco. This was one of only four concerts the band played that year, all of them in San Francisco. The setlist was mostly comprised of songs from the album Blues for Allah, which had not yet been released. Many Deadheads revere the GAMH performance as an all-time favorite.

In 2019, we attended a concert at Folsom Field in Boulder. The skies darkened, it started to rain lightly, and I emailed my weather guru friend in Austin, Texas: “Hey Danny, what’s happening in the Colorado front range?” Danny sent back a Doppler radar screenshot showing very bright red and deep purple tie-dye splotches running from Denver to Fort Collins. Boulder was in the bullseye. Driving over the Shawangunk Ridge, there’s a similar feel to the Boulder Flatirons.
