Our core mission is to connect music lovers with Bay Area sound and musicians with their fans...
Bay Vibes was conceived on a sunny day in the park by Robin Applewood, the charismatic lead singer of Dogman Joe. Growing up within the larger San Francisco art and music scene, with many years of professional experience playing out, Applewood sought to create a venue that would further expose, build, and unify the Bay Area’s artist community. He looked to fellow musicians, talented artists, production experts and other friends to help define and celebrate what he knows to be the unifying thread: a sound that carries from the heartbeat of the city to the music-loving world at large. In its fourth year, Bay Vibes is a locally-driven and oriented event company with excellent ties to the real and online communities, and, in 2011, intends to expand to an Internet radio station continuously supporting multi-genre local bands. Applewood and company are dedicated to promoting local music, both for the locals and to music fans visiting or wanting to get turned on to the Bay Area sound from afar. Bay Vibes encourages all interested folks to come and enjoy current events throughout the city, and features stellar shows at Yoshi’s SF, including: Songwriter Sundays, Late Night Live Tuesdays, and Global Movement Wednesdays. What would any music community be without the occasional festive extravaganza? Coming from core beliefs in the unification of sound amongst local artists and a strong desire to foster a thriving community, in Bay Vibes, Applewood also created an evolutionary model for music festivals. By involving performers in promotion and organizers in the show, Bay Vibes Summer Musicfest breaks down barriers between “rock stars” and the community, making our event by and for the music loving community as a whole. The positive benefits of such a model ultimately connects festivalgoers with many different styles of up and coming Bay Area music, and the musicians with their fans in a holistically fun and new way. Created for and by music lovers, Bay Vibes proves to be a fast-growing community of great musicians and artists with a fresh and yet old-school approach to supporting local music. If you want to get involved, contact us and let us know about your own local talents – the more Bay Vibers, the merrier! |
