While the artist’s first two LPs found her voice floating amidst atmospheric waves of guitar, her new album incorporates elements of dance-pop as well, and finds her collaborating with another former local, Shaun Durkan (of Weekend), as well as Violens’ Jorge Elbrecht.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking of atmosphere, San Francisco experimental punk pioneers \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/chromechronicles\">Chrome\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> are hitting the road for a West Coast tour that ends at Bottom of the Hill later this month. Founded 40 years ago, the Helios Creed-led group released its most recent LP, \u003cem>Feel It Like a Scientist\u003c/em>, last year, and ought to be more heralded for its groundbreaking sonic weirdness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plenty of great touring bands are coming through town this month, too, including Providence’s \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/DowntownBoys\">Downtown Boys\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>. The group’s debut LP, \u003cem>Full Communism\u003c/em>, is one of the most exciting punk albums we’ve heard lately, delivering intensity, heart, and brains packed into some killer songs. Also highly recommended is the latest from \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/dickdiverband\">Dick Diver\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, one of the many terrific Melbourne bands from the Mikey Young/Eddy Current/Total Control/UV Race universe.

The stoner-metal group began in 1993; its new album, \u003cem>Middle of Nowhere, Center of Everywhere\u003c/em>, arrives a full decade after its predecessor.

Still, the singles from \u003cem>Realize\u003c/em> make the Oakland band’s new album feel like a big leap forward, seamlessly melding the group’s love of Americana, soul, and psych music into a unique spin on rock ‘n’ roll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/twoshedsband\">Two Sheds\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> has long been a favorite of ours, and we’ve followed the group from its early origins in Sacramento, through a stint in the Bay Area to their current home of Los Angeles. The indie rock-pop band’s new album, \u003cem>Assembling\u003c/em>, was spawned out of some marathon songwriting sessions, and we’ve long been impressed by the group’s ability to build rich atmosphere from layers of sonic texture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, in what we think is a Bay Bridged podcast first, we’ve included two songs in this mix that both have the exact same title.

Still, the singles from \u003cem>Realize\u003c/em> make the Oakland band’s new album feel like a big leap forward, seamlessly melding the group’s love of Americana, soul, and psych music into a unique spin on rock ‘n’ roll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/twoshedsband\">Two Sheds\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> has long been a favorite of ours, and we’ve followed the group from its early origins in Sacramento, through a stint in the Bay Area to their current home of Los Angeles. The indie rock-pop band’s new album, \u003cem>Assembling\u003c/em>, was spawned out of some marathon songwriting sessions, and we’ve long been impressed by the group’s ability to build rich atmosphere from layers of sonic texture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, in what we think is a Bay Bridged podcast first, we’ve included two songs in this mix that both have the exact same title.

In many cases it’s the use of beautiful public spaces, often city and state parks, that become part of the festival experience. Or maybe it’s the way that our festivals invest more time and effort into making sure that the food and drink offerings are compelling on their own. And, of course, there’s also the presence of great local bands, adding unique Bay Area flavor to each event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, there’s certainly an argument to be made that the Bay Area is reaching “peak festival.” Still, the benefits music fans can reap from the wealth of opportunities to see great bands in unique outdoor environments are undeniable. And looking at this list, it’s going to be a busy summer for music fans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mixtape collects 10 songs by artists performing at Northern California music festivals this summer. Each pick is accompanied by our reasons why that festival is worth seeking out.

An ownership change led to a revitalized event in 2014, and 2015 finds the festival returning with 70+ bands. The lineup is less indie-oriented than most of the fests in this mix, but still offers plenty of potential highlights. It’s especially promising for foodies, with a “Culinary Stage” that will feature “celebrated chefs, vintners, actors, professional athletes and sommeliers participating in entertaining demos, performances, and other hijinx.” (On Sunday, Snoop Dogg mixes it up with chef Masaharu Morimoto.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015.jpg\" alt=\"Burger Boogaloo 2015 Poster\" width=\"673\" height=\"792\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10677896\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015.jpg 673w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015-400x471.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015-510x600.jpg 510w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 673px) 100vw, 673px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Gories-official/274813555900045\">The Gories\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “On The Run”\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://burgerboogaloo.com/\">\u003cstrong>Burger Boogaloo\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nMosswood Park, Oakland\u003cbr>\nJuly 4-5, 2015\u003cbr>\nGarage rock fans can’t miss the 2015 Burger Boogaloo, celebrating the genre’s surprising diversity with two days of performances hosted by the legendary John Waters. It’s a stacked lineup, with reunited groups like the Mummies and the Gories alongside some of today’s most rocking bands, including Fuzz, the Gooch Palms, and Shannon & The Clams — and rare local gigs by Japanese bands the 5.6.7.8’s and Thunderroads.

Plus, the organizers do a killer job on food, wine and beer, making it truly a major music festival fit for San Franciscans.

In many cases it’s the use of beautiful public spaces, often city and state parks, that become part of the festival experience. Or maybe it’s the way that our festivals invest more time and effort into making sure that the food and drink offerings are compelling on their own. And, of course, there’s also the presence of great local bands, adding unique Bay Area flavor to each event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be sure, there’s certainly an argument to be made that the Bay Area is reaching “peak festival.” Still, the benefits music fans can reap from the wealth of opportunities to see great bands in unique outdoor environments are undeniable. And looking at this list, it’s going to be a busy summer for music fans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mixtape collects 10 songs by artists performing at Northern California music festivals this summer. Each pick is accompanied by our reasons why that festival is worth seeking out.

The lineup is less indie-oriented than most of the fests in this mix, but still offers plenty of potential highlights. It’s especially promising for foodies, with a “Culinary Stage” that will feature “celebrated chefs, vintners, actors, professional athletes and sommeliers participating in entertaining demos, performances, and other hijinx.” (On Sunday, Snoop Dogg mixes it up with chef Masaharu Morimoto.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015.jpg\" alt=\"Burger Boogaloo 2015 Poster\" width=\"673\" height=\"792\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10677896\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015.jpg 673w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015-400x471.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/burger-boogaloo-2015-510x600.jpg 510w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 673px) 100vw, 673px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Gories-official/274813555900045\">The Gories\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “On The Run”\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://burgerboogaloo.com/\">\u003cstrong>Burger Boogaloo\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nMosswood Park, Oakland\u003cbr>\nJuly 4-5, 2015\u003cbr>\nGarage rock fans can’t miss the 2015 Burger Boogaloo, celebrating the genre’s surprising diversity with two days of performances hosted by the legendary John Waters.

Similarly, Kevin Patrick fronts the rollicking trio Rin Tin Tiger, but his solo work as \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/fieldmedicmusic\">Field Medic\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> is quiet, sparse and weighty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this mix also showcases Bay Area musicians exploring sonic terrain beyond the stripped-down acoustic landscape. \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/jordannahe\">Jordannah Elizabeth\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>’s latest, \u003cem>A Rush\u003c/em>, mixes psych, soul, and other influences in a way that’s unique and unpredictable. Speaking of unpredictable, \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/KendraMcKinleyMusic\">Kendra McKinley\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>’s album \u003cem>Chestnut Street\u003c/em> was very stripped-down, so the deliriously kaleidoscopic “Do What You Want” suggests a new and exciting direction on her next LP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mixtape collects 14 songs by singer-songwriters from the San Francisco Bay Area, including all of the artists discussed above and many more. Enjoy the mix!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Trouble in Mind Records only puts out quality, and this one’s no different.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://wandband.info/\">Wand\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Self Hypnosis in 3 Days”\u003cbr>\nFrom: Los Angeles, California\u003cbr>\nWand’s Cory Thomas Hanson has built quite a resume in recent years, playing with Mikal Cronin, Meatbodies, and together PANGEA. His band’s set at the Hotel Vegas felt decidedly heavier than any of those bands, boasting some serious guitar shredding to boot. The group’s new LP \u003cem>Golem\u003c/em> just arrived on In the Red, making it well worth checking out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/bullythemusic\">Bully\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> – “Milkman”\u003cbr>\nFrom: Nashville, Tennesse\u003cbr>\nThis Nashville quartet delivers immediate, riff-driven tunes that call to mind everything from The Replacements to Seattle grunge. That sound is likely to carry through to the band’s forthcoming debut album, which was recorded at Steve Albini’s Electrical Audio studio (where bandleader Alicia Bognanno used to intern).\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
