Secret Rehearsal: Live Ambient Music with Special Guest 🎶
Live music has a way of making everything better: the drinks, conversations, and time as it slows down in the best way.
On the third Sunday of each month, we welcome a special guest from San Francisco's vibrant local music scene to perform live sets in our speakeasy.
Join us this week for a secret rehearsal featuring a very special secret musical guest. Expect to hear experimental electronic neoclassical jazz like you've never heard it before.
It's the perfect excuse to wind down the weekend with good sound, great cocktails, and something delicious to nibble on all in one of the Mission's most unique and intimate spaces, named SF’s Top Newest Bar of 2025.
Come as you are. No cover, no reservations required. Just good music and good vibes.
