Thanks for the pointer, Dan.

Could you please add the Utah based band Advent Horizon to the Events calendar for June 13, 2026 at Club Fox. They have a great new album that was just released last Friday and they are incredible live.

Yo, I've just joined a band called BIRTH - formerly based in San Diego, now fully operational in the Bay Area. One album already out (Born, 2022 on Bad Omen Records), we're doing our first show with the new lineup at Eli's Mile High Club in Oakland on Friday April 10th. Would love to find more bands to play shows with in the future. Our sound is somewhere in the sweet spot of Pompeii-era Floyd, King Crimson, Eloy, Camel, Aphrodites Child, etc. If you're reading this there's a good chance you'll like it.

Hi everyone, I’m Marcello Chiaraluce, guitarist for Diaspro, an Italian progressive rock band.

Through a strange twist of fate, a package of our CDs intended for Japan has ended up right there in your neighborhood in San Francisco!

If you’re curious to check out our music, you can find copies at Noise in Richmond. Our debut album was released on February 14th, so it’s brand new; it blends classic prog traditions with a modern sound and deep, evocative lyrics.

You can find us on Instagram @diaspro_band or visit our label's website at www.guitalrecords.com. Thanks to everyone for the support!

Hi everyone! I'm Rahul, drummer for Oakland based prog band Desert of the Real. We are energized to play some local gigs with other prog bands. Anyone interested in putting a show together?

Hello! My name is Jonathan Hughes from Elevenwire!
We’re a new Prog band formed in Santa Cruz, Ca. We just signed with OOB Records out of The Netherlands. Our debut album, “Blood Red Sun” will be released on CD and all streaming platforms on 3/1/24. Eric Gillette (NMB, Temic) played all drums and we mixed/mastered at his studio in Tulsa.
Anyway, we’re looking for places to play live in the Bay Area. Any ideas?

Ha. I now noticed that some of these are already on the event list. I was assuming that the list went from the most recent dates backwards. My bad.

Transatlantic. April 24th. UC Theatre
Mogwai. April 27th. Fillmore.
Steve Hackett. May 15th. Warfield.
Pineapple Thief. May 29th. Great American Music Hall.
Sigur Ros. May 17th. Frost Amphitheater.
Haken. May 29th. Regency Ballroom.

Matt,

If you get me the official web pages for the bands, I'll be happy to add them to the site.

Thanks.

Thanks for getting this going again!

Hi Everyone, Matt here from Solano county, hope you guys are all well. Thanks for keeping music alive!

If you get a chance, come check out our upcoming prog show in Vallejo, March 5th. Gonna be a combination of prog covers (Crimson, Genesis, Camel, ELP, neo-prog) and originals. Lot's of fun!
