Maybe you’re craving Mozart, or feeling nostalgic for Billy Joel. Or perhaps you just want something a little rootsy and Americana. Either way, there’s bound to be something on the calendar that’ll hit the spot.
Classical Delights in Mill Valley and San Anselmo
The Throckmorton Chorus is back in Mill Valley this Thursday at 7:30 p.m. They’re known for their vocal chops and creative programming, and this time they’re mixing it up with Mozart, Billy Joel, and even Florence Price.
Price was the first African-American woman to break through as a symphonic composer, which honestly still feels way overdue. Tickets for this show at the historic Throckmorton Theatre run from $21 to $26, making it a pretty accessible night out for music lovers.
Baroque Treasures in San Anselmo
If you’re into early music, Marin Baroque is bringing “Echoes of Versailles” to First Presbyterian San Anselmo on Saturday night. The program dives into French Baroque pieces by some lesser-known composers who really deserve a bit more spotlight.
The show starts at 7:30 p.m., with tickets between $17.85 and $39.19. Kids under 10 get in free, which is a pretty sweet deal for families from Corte Madera, Larkspur, or anywhere nearby looking for an affordable way to introduce the younger crowd to Baroque music.
Rock and Contemporary Sounds Across the County
Marin’s next wave of musicians gets their turn on stage as student rock bands from Marin School of the Arts at Novato High School take over Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley. Thursday’s 7:30 p.m. show should be packed with energy, and tickets are just $23.18.
If you’re from Tiburon or Sausalito, or really anywhere in Marin, it’s worth coming out to support these up-and-coming artists. They’re shaping the future of the local music scene, whether they realize it or not.
Local Singer-Songwriters in Fairfax
Fairfax’s own Peri’s Tavern is hosting a cozy night with singer-songwriters Jesse Ray Smith and Anahita Skye on Thursday at 8:30 p.m. Both have deep Marin roots and will be sharing some of their latest songs.
Admission is $20 at the door. For folks in Ross, San Rafael, or anyone who appreciates honest, homegrown songwriting, this is a chance to catch two local talents in one of the county’s most beloved venues.
Americana Under the Stars in Novato
HopMonk Tavern kicks off its Cookout Concert Series this Friday at 6 p.m. with acclaimed Americana singer-songwriter Anders Osborne.
You can grab a standard admission ticket for $54.40, or splurge on the premium package at $79.27, which comes with a meal.
The outdoor setting really sets the mood for Osborne’s soulful sound.
Music fans from Woodacre to Bolinas are likely to show up for this evening under Marin’s starry skies.
Tickets are up for grabs on each venue’s website.
Folks from Stinson Beach to Kentfield can plan their musical weekend without much hassle.
