Even though the summer festival/touring season has quieted down, September offers a bunch of amazing concerts in the Bay Area. Here are sneak peeks at some of the most enticing.
Cass McCombs and Papercuts co-headline a night of great songwriters at the Great American Music Hall on September 9th. McCombs’ latest, Catacombs, offers both lyrical folk rock and more uptempo songs like “Dreams Come True Girl,” a work closer to the warm ’60s-oriented analog of Jason Quever’s Papercuts.
Other shows worth checking out:
– With a new EP out this month, one might expect Birdmonster to be throwing all of their weight behind a big release-focused show. Instead, they’re giving back with a benefit performance for the Potrero Hill Public Library. The show’s on Saturday, September 26th at Bottom of the Hill.
