Local Musicians

Barbara Anderson Blues Band
Mama Said
Sultry blues vocals and thought-provoking lyrics by singer-songwriter Barbara Anderson.

The Bobbleheads
Automatic Fun
Happy fun power pop rock that shuffles about brightly.

Capsule Queen
Moonflowers
One of San Francisco's hottest bands, Capsule Queen's sound is a luxurious electro-magnetic symphony of guitars, synths, drums, drum machines and skyrockets.

Castles in Spain
Numero Tres
Emotional, melodic, dark and moody pop.

Echo Beach
2003 demo
Modern jazz and standards with a percussion and pop twist.

Kiff Gallagher
You Can't Keep it Down
Previously compared to "Maroon 5 with a dose of Stevie Wonder" (S.F. Examiner), Kiff comes into his own with rare songcrafting talent—made of rich chord progressions, wicked grooves and the "velvet blanket" of his soulful voice.

The Objective
A passionate singer-songwriter with lyrical bravado and hypnotic beats. Whether it's alt-pop or trance grooves, there's no denying her enigmatic pull.

Kingstreet
Along Came Lizzy
Kingstreet's musical irreverence and respective gambling problems don't tarnish their command of the almighty hook.

Lipstick Conspiracy
Don't Tell a Soul

Ride the Blinds
Ride the Blinds
The music is an evolution from the vintage rock era that is based more on proficient skill and band chemistry than in genre type.

She Mob
Cancel the Wedding
The female threesome (plus one lad) scribble smashingly raucous and surprisingly tender tunes in a decidedly I'm-getting-too-old-for-punk-but-I'm-still-kinda-pissed style reminscient of Scrawl and the Raincoats.

Sinister Dexter
Dexterity
A hard-hitting New Orleans-style horn band, like a mix of Tower of Power, Santana, the Blues Brothers, and a pre-80s Kool and the Gang.

Todd Sickafoos Group
Dogs Outside
San Francisco jazz ensemble hailed for its adventurous and imaginative modern jazz.

The Skyflakes
Filipino-American indie band. From the band's site: "The Skyflakes are often lovingly described as 'cute and bubbly' or 'sweet and sugary.' But I know better. Just listen to their lyrics. Underneath the indie rock swirls and cuddly pop hooks are some mean words about putting bullets into yourself, dropping acid, talking $#!? about co-workers, and meatheads with body image problems..."
