- Aug 16th Cotati Accordion Festival with Amber Lee Baker!

This year I get to join Amber Lee Baker as an official performing guest at the world famous Cotati Accordion Fest. I’ve done this show with her before, but I’m excited to be a formal collaborator with our shiny set of songs.
We will be sharing the weekend with the best of the best Accordion afficionados including our friends Junk Parlor!
If you’ve yet to make plans or are just plain curious grab your tickets and spend the day with us!
SONGWRITER SHOWCASE
Every first and third Thursday, I invite a singer-songwriter from the Bay Area to swap songs and stories with me. We share some original songs as well as a few choice covers to shine a light on what makes the Bay Area so singable.
- Aug 6th Blush! Wine Bar Feminine Collective takeover! Sarah Larkin hosts The Feminine Collective in the round At BLUSH.
AMERICANO SOCIAL CLUB

The Americano Social Club plays music for “la dolce vita”: a mix of romantic and eclectic melodies from all over the world. At our performances you might hear Pop, Jazz or Folk, Classical, Rock, or Opera, the music of Brazil or of Europe’s cafés, (not to mention some of our own dramatic original pieces); and all of it re-imagined so you will hear the melodies you love (or didn’t know you loved) like new again.
- EVERY WEDNESDAY At BLUSH! Wine Bar! Yes, EVERY Wednesday, The Americano Social Club serenades the Castro District with all of the weird, woeful, and wonderful melodies they can scavenge from all over the world. You will leave feeling connected. Or weirded out. Either way, you’ll be entertained. What have you got to lose?
