Friday, May 8 | The Shire Punks| 7:00 p.m. | $10 cover
Rooted in the DIY tradition and the rich musical undercurrent of Gold Country, Shire Punks carry a sound that’s part backwoods punk revival, part string-band stomp, and entirely their own. Whether on a small-town stage or a late-night jam, they bring grit, heart, and a little glorious chaos. A foothill-fueled folk-punk outfit from Calaveras County blending punk attitude, old-time roots, and mountain-town storytelling into a high-energy sound full of grit, humor, and communal singalongs. Equal parts rowdy and heartfelt, they bring Gold Country spirit wherever they play.

Sunday May 17th | Scott Amendola Trio | | 3:00 p.m. $25 general | $34 reserved
For Scott Amendola, the drum kit isn’t so much an instrument as a musical portal. As an ambitious composer, savvy bandleader, electronics explorer, first-call accompanist and capaciously creative foil for some of the world’s most inventive musicians, Amendola applies his wide-ranging rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings. His closest musical associates include guitarists Charlie Hunter, Nels Cline, and Jeff Parker, Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades, violinist Jenny Scheinman, saxophonist Phillip Greenlief, clarinetist Ben Goldberg, bassists Trevor Dunn, and Todd Sickafoose, players who have each forged a singular path within and beyond the realm of jazz.
While rooted in the San Francisco Bay Area scene, Amendola has woven a dense and far-reaching web of bandstand relationships that tie him to influential artists in jazz, blues, rock and new music. A potent creative catalyst, the Berkeley-based drummer is the nexus for a disparate community of musicians stretching from Los Angeles and Seattle to Chicago and New York. Whatever the context, Amendola possesses a gift for twisting musical genres in unexpected directions.
Late Spring Farm-to-Fork Fare to be announced – details coming soon.
