So you’re in San Francisco this Sunday and you want to check out the local music and arts scene. I like the way you think, and I’ve got just the thing for you: The Love City Music Festival. Here’s how Kai Straw describes the event:

The goal is to be the…. home for honest art and the people who appreciate it.  To be the ceaselessly thumping heart of the forever-grinding musician or the middle-aged man still throwing paint on canvases though he’s never been written about, appreciated or sought after.  This project, Love City, is about the pursuit of something real.  Greatness isn’t always found under the bright lights of the public eye but instead it’s found in the banging and distorted guitar ringing from suburban garages and urban dive bars.  It’s found in bedrooms and behind $50 microphones and pop-filters made of nylon.

Tickets are a steal at 20 bucks. You can buy them, check out the artist lineup, and get venue information on the Love City website.
