Venue Picks
This has always been one of my favorite intimate music venues in San Francisco and it takes me back to my early 20s when I first moved to the city. I’ve had a chance to see so many amazing artists come through here and it never loses it’s magic.
Davies symphony hall is one of the most stunning venues in SF! It’s right in the heart of the city and architectually beautiful. I’ve seen some truly unforgettable performances here from Cynthia Erivo to film nights with the SF symphony.
This is another one of favorite intimate venues for music in San Francisco. Over the years it’s held many memories from watching my favorite bands to catching my musician friends take the stage!
