Lee Vilensky Trio has no interest in lyrics. Words, in their estimation, get in the way — of feeling, of groove, of whatever it is music is actually trying to say. Formed in 2000 from the remains of the Swingin' Johnsons, the band made the switch to all-instrumentals early on (partly philosophical, partly due to the unpredictable behavior and general unsavory appearance of most vocalists). What started as a side project for well-traveled Bay Area sidemen has grown into one of SF's most beloved instrumental acts and the self-declared founders of the West Coast Spy/Soul movement. Groove and feel, melody and harmony — unencumbered, unapologetic, and blessedly word-free.

Olive grew up outside Madison, WI, tagging along to campout folk and bluegrass festivals with her parents — the kind of upbringing that gets into your bones whether you plan it or not. Now based in San Francisco, she writes what she calls alternative folk, music rooted in that midwestern earnestness but shaped by everything the city has thrown at her since. She's equally at home on a bar stage or a busy street corner, and there's nothing she loves more than catching someone mid-rush and giving them a reason to stop. Olive frequently co-writes with musician and producer Romzoni, and her music — including a digitized cassette EP and a growing catalog of singles — is available on all streaming platforms.

“She embodies an eclectic powerhouse with a shrewd and genre-defying sound meant to infinitely explore the boundless pop and rock sonic rabbit holes in an authentic and sometimes vulnerable way, as someone who has always held that insatiable passion for music and the dream to make a mark in the music industry in her own original ways, American singer-songwriter and performer Libba can’t wait to get started.” – Daily Music Roll

Honeymoon has been a mainstay of the Bay Area Americana scene for nearly a decade — honkytonk-rooted, California-spirited, and built around the songwriting duo of Hank Maninger and Lynne Maes. Traversing country, rockabilly, bluegrass, and pop across four albums, they write songs that find the universal in the everyday. Their latest, Sidewinder, stays true to classic country while edging into the full breadth of American pop music. Catch them live and you'll understand why they keep coming back.

The Nineteens don't pick a lane — they pick an era, then several more. The fierce, female-fronted Bay Area band blends '70s punk, '80s ska, surf, and rockabilly into something that feels both gloriously retro and entirely their own. Formed in 2020, they've become a fixture of the San Francisco live music scene, winning crowds over with gritty guitars, infectious sing-along melodies, and a healthy dose of retro glamour. High-energy doesn't quite cover it — but it's a good place to start.
