Get ready for another fun week of live music in the Bay Area, highlighted by the Rocks In Your Head Fest in Orinda. Here are some of our top concert picks:
Rocks In Your Head Fest
As Cal Shakes regulars can tell you, the stage company’s Bruns Amphitheater is an amazing place to see a show. And the venue is now hosting concerts, on top of all the cool theater that regularly goes on there. And on July 27, the lovely outdoor venue in Orinda hosts the Rocks In Your Head Fest.
The all-day festival features a way-hip indie music lineup of Shannon Shaw, Sonny & The Sunsets, Dynasty Handbag, Jay Stone, Younger Lovers, The She’s, Rays, Kelley Stoltz, the Gonks, Galore, April Magazine and Tony Jay.
