It’s a new month — which means more live music. Our picks this week feature local acts and some international genres.
Thursday, May 3: BAR Con at BackBar
One of our favorite events returns to BackBar this Thursday. San Jose’s math rock band Dokoe and Santa Cruz’s gamer rock band Viking Guitar will take the stage for the monthly destination of Japanese rock, anime, and gaming.
Friday, May 4: Joyce Manor at The Ritz
Southern California pop punk band Joyce Manor head to #DTSJ this Friday for another spotlight show at The Ritz. They’re joined by San Jose’s awakebutstillinbed and Oakland’s Pity Party for a night of California emo pop that you don’t want to pass up.
May 6: Tamba! AfroBeats x AfroHouse Dance Party
The Continental’s monthly ‘AfroHouse’ party is this Sunday. Featured DJs include DJ Prince, Arif and K-la-V. The show is 21+ and free — all you need to get in are #goodvibes.
