Tips for marketing live music locally?

Any local artists/musicians? As an artist myself, it’s been really hard getting my event (live performance) noticed by local audiences- what are your experiences?

Girl band looking to record some demos :) !

My all girl punk band has about 5-6 originals that we’d like to try and get recorded, semi-professionally or whatever makes sense. We probably don’t have a big budget but just looking to have something to put on Spotify.

Are there any places in SF/Bay Area we should checkout ? Know anybody that would do it for cheap ?

Drummer looking for jazz and funk musicians

Hi guys,

First time posting here. I am a very experienced drummer looking to form a jazz and or/funk oriented band (mostly or entirely instrumental). I'd see this as the type of band that would play outside of The Page bar in Lower Haight. If this kind of vibe and project interests you, DM me!

Any bands involved with noise pop events?

Was wondering if there’s a way to apply for Noise Pop events and if anyone here has had experience with that.

Noticed in a comment on a Noisepop Fest post they said that they would be opening up applications for local acts soon, but that was 4 weeks ago and haven’t seen anything posted or on their website since.

Looking for venues / bars to play

Hi all, my band and I have been having a blast playing gigs around the bay area over the past year and a half. I'm currently in the process of creating a spread sheet with a bunch of bars that host bands as well as small venues. I got places like corner stone in Berkeley, bottom of the hill in SF as well as others. Please let me know if anywhere comes to mind.

Looking for producers/artists to collaborate and jam with

Hi,
I'm an eletronic music producer making house and techno music. I work with Ableton Live, drum machines and synthesizers. I've been making music for 15+ years and recently decided to take it more seriously and to work on an EP and live show. My music style is similar to Mall Grab, Pretty Girl, highly influenced by Chicago house, acid house, stutter house, melodic house/techno...
I'm looking for other artists interested in doing jam sessions, learning from each other, and eventually collaborating together.

Send me a DM ! :)

Nathanial Rateliff presale

I remember seeing a post recently about artists not stopping in SF, and I think maybe presale interest is a good way to encourage bands to come. Anyway, if there are other Nathanial Rateliff fans out there, he has a presale signup (on Oct 22) for a show on Feb 22 at the Bill Graham. Here's how to register for the presale: https://signup.ticketmaster.com/nathanielrateliffthenightsweats. If you don't know his music, here's a track I love, it's a bit slower than most of the rest of his stuff but hits me in the feels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw4MiegZxsU. More representative: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEKwJxW6CqM.
