There are a ton of varied acts to see this week in the Bay Area. Whether you’re in the mood to see a classical crossover act (Clean Bandit), a funk-rock group (The Werks), a surrealist pop band (Silver Apples), or a badass female rapper (Mariahlynn), the Bay has got it all.
Perhaps the biggest acts playing this week are Sigur Ros and Third Eye Blind, but both shows are sold-out, so good luck getting tickets. Other mentionable shows include the swing act Squirrel Nut Zippers and UK EDM phenom, Jax Jones.
