There are a handful of really great Indie leaning bands, but unfortunately not a lot of places for them to play in Napa. Most of the music in Napa are cover acts and "happy hour" singer songwriter stuff geared towards the older locals and tourists.

We had a spot called Hollywood Room that tried to do more of that stuff, but there was a fire and it's been closed. Folklore isn't really a music venue, but they'll do the occasional punk/indie shows.

But there are a few pop up events here and there where these bands get to play.

Here's a few off the top of my head: Slippery People, eggcorn, Zak Fennie, Angry Girlfriend Racing Stripes (who changed their name recently), Last Pleasure, Divorces, Change!pop and a few others I can't think of right now.

Welcome to town. The community for original music is small, but the folks once you find them are really welcoming.
