Thank you everyone who came to enjoy the 2023 Festival – we had a great time!

Potential Musicians for 2024 – Please sign up here.

We are in need of fundraising – so please – if you support the return of a SF tradition – give so the bands can play.

Blending art & soul in one of the country’s most unique neighborhoods in San Francisco. From Sunup to Sundown, visitors, locals and businesses can groove to live music from multiple stages, enjoy the artists and enjoy gourmet food and beverages. An event providing many levels of participation for residents, community groups, sponsors, local businesses, and Exhibitors or Food Vendors.

If you were walking down San Francisco’s Fillmore Street in the 1950s, chances are you might run into Billie Holiday stepping out of a restaurant. Or Ella Fitzgerald trying on hats. Or Thelonious Monk smoking a cigarette. This wouldn’t be out of the ordinary in the “Harlem of the West.”

We offered 5 venues stretching from Jackson to Post Street: Calvary Presbyterian Church, Washington Stage, California Stage, Sutter Stage and Jones Memorial United Methodist
