BISS 10.11.16 :: DONOVAN / BRIAN WILSON / HANDMADE MOMENTS / STEVIE VAI / TREVOR HALL / WEEN / CON BRIO / TREASURE ISLAND MUSIC FEST


Hey BISS Listers! Miss. BISS just jetted off to Detroit so you're stuck with me (Casey) and the lovely company of Judy this evening! I had a great time working at Joshua Tree Music Festival this past week - if you haven't been before make sure to check it out in May! Take a look through the lineup too for some new music to get down too, you won't be disappointed! Anyways, it's great to be back and have a whole week of fantastic music to tell ya about! So lets jump right in...

TONIGHT! THE FELICE BROTHERS with AARON LEE TASJAN are playing at Slim's and I might have to stop on over (**WIN TICKETS**). If you haven't heard of them, they got this young Bob Dylan-Americana-Folk feel with a little bit of rock and roll and whiskey. Give a listen to "Love Me Tenderly" when you get a chance. Over at The Masonic, the man who has top hits in 6 decades of music, TOM JONES! Last, but not least, it's Madrone Art Bar FAT TUESDAYS with ATTA KID, MAX COWAN, and DANIEL CASARES. Good spot for the funk seekers on a Tuesday!

On Wednesday, BISS has a pair of tickets for STU ALLEN & MARS HOTEL at Ashkenaz so be sure to hop on that for your hump day get down (**WIN TICKETS**)! At the Fox, soul-inspired pop band (that uses NO guitars!) FITZ & THE TANTRUMS + TYLER GREEN are taking the stage! For the first of two nights, DONOVAN will be at the Regency Ballroom for his 50th Anniversary "Sunshine Superman Tour". Also noteworthy, a portion of the proceeds from each show will go towards Donovan's Children Fund which brings Transcendental Meditation to thousands of at risk youth every year. At the Masonic, the first of two nights with BRIAN WILSON presents PET SOUNDS - another 50th Anniversary to celebrate! He will be playing the entire Pet Sounds album for its final time along with some Beach Boys favorites for the fans! For the jazzy folks, 6ROSES DAVID BOYCE & NUCGAEK CAVASENO JAZZ DUO will be starting off 7-9pm at Madrone Art Bar followed by HOWARD WILEY & EXTRA NAPPY at 9:30!

On Thursday, we have one of my favorites, HANDMADE MOMENTS, at The Uptown Nightclub in Oakland! If you haven't heard them you're already missin' out! I met these cats on Jam Cruise last January and been number one fan since! Two piece jazz-folk duo mashing up saxophone, guitar, bass, ukelele, tuba, beat boxing, and whatever you throw at them basically. Come on by and have a cold one with me! In Marin, we have the beautiful music of TREVOR HALL (SOLO) at Sweetwater Music Hall (**WIN TICKETS**) for those of you up that way. If you're looking to hit two shows and go late night, check out STEVE VAI with TONY MACALPHINE at The Fillmore then pop right into The Boom Boom Room for BIG BLU SOUL REVUE + TONGUE & GROOVIN' for their album release party (**WIN TICKETS**)! Don't forget, both DONOVAN and BRIAN WILSON have their second night shows happenin' at The Regency and The Masonic too!

Friday is packed full of great things to mention! First, a BISS favorite, ZEBUEL, is releasing his new album, River City Sunset on Friday! This is the first album to be released under the new Smoked Out Soul label. If you're as excited as we are, you can listen to the album preview and an interview with Zeb at 11pm on KPFA Rickey Vincent's History of Funk! You can also check out his Spotify (ZEBUEL SPOTIFY) or catch one of the many shows coming up here soon! I'm sensing a lot of big show decisions coming up on Friday - WEEN kicks off its two night run at Bill Graham for starters. Then we have POLYRHYTHMICS, EL METATE,  & REED MATHIS putting on a hell of a show at Brick & Mortar (**WIN TICKETS**)! T SISTERS are over at The Chapel and we would love to see one of you happy BISS readers going on the guest list (**WIN TICKETS**)! Also up for grabs, CON BRIO, KEV CHOICE ENSEMBLE, + KUCKAW will be shaking the UC Theater with some funk and soul (**WIN TICKETS**)! One of Jammin On Haights master-dyers and resident rockstar, VIVECA HAWKINS, will be with KEV CHOICE ENSEMBLE as well, another reason not to miss it! American dance-punk group, !!! (Chk Chk Chk) will be over at Social Hall SF if you're looking to get a bit rowdy with that crowd as we sometimes do! How about one more giveaway for Friday!? Miss BISS is giving away a pair of tickets to FELABRATION: LAGOS ROOTS at The New Parish which will certainly be a party not to miss with a 17-piece afrobeat ensemble (**WIN TICKETS**)!

If you haven't already tired yourself out early this week with all the great music rolling through, hop over to the TREASURE ISLAND MUSIC FESTIVAL! Saturday features artists such as, ICE CUBE, ZHU, GLASS ANIMALS, DUKE DUMONT, YOUNG THUG, and many more! You can also catch the second night of madness with WEEN at Bill Graham!

As for Sunday, TREASURE ISLAND MUSIC FESTIVAL doesn't disappoint with SIGUR ROS, JAMES BLAKE, TYCHO, SYLVAN ESSO, NEON INDIAN, and many more headlining! I'm a big fan of Sigur Ros...don't miss these Icelandic rock stars and Jonsi's beautiful voice! Also on Sunday, we have SUNDAY SESSIONS with WIL BLADES STRAIGHT JAZZ, NO CHASER! At Madrone Art Bar.  

On Monday night we have the always wonderful, VAN MORRISON, gracing us with his presence at Davies Symphony Hall. Tickets are already sold out but you guys are made of all sorts of magic - you'll make it happen if you want it bad enough! He's also playing Tuesday night at SF Jazz - Miner Auditorium! Also on Tuesday, BON IVER + FRANCIS AND THE LIGHTS will be at The Fox and THE FRAY with AMERICAN AUTHORS will be at The Masonic! Great music flowing right into your week! There ya have it!

Also a reminder, HANGTOWN MUSIC FESTIVAL is around the corner! I might be a little bluegrass biased, but I'm SUPER impressed with this years line up! Hope to see all of you there kickin' up the dust!!

--If you ever start to feel like a battery, because you're rarely included in things either...just keep in mind you're on The BISS List! You're included in EVERYTHING good happenin'!--
