  • Ep. 12: Bay Area Beats - Tribute to Elvis de Souza & Exclusive Baz Francis Performance
    Jun 2 2025
    For the latest episode of the Music City San Francisco Podcast, we switch things up a little as our producer Albert Lopez takes the chair to interview two friends of the show. First, we sit down with Nilo Ayele, of the band Namorados Da Lua, to pay tribute to their recently departed forever bass player, Elvis de Souza who left us a few weeks ago. The band plays at Music City San Francisco as a tribute to their dear friend and the legacy he's left behind. Then Albert is joined with his old friend Baz Francis, the international singer/songwriter, who lives in the UK but is in the Bay touring and spends some time with us sharing his unique take on the world along side his unique sound. Baz plays an original song for us in the podcast studio as he and Albert discuss everything from music to the current state of the political world. You can find both Baz and Nilo's music on YouTube as well as Spotify. Guests:Nilo AyeleBaz Francis Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Ep. 11: NBA All-Star Weekend: Goldie Gold, Paletas Cannabis & Beats
    May 16 2025
    You can't talk about Hip-Hop in the Bay Area without mentioning the Hyphy movement; and in this episode, we welcome none other than the grandfather of hyphy Goldie Gold of The Federation. He is holding his birthday party at Music City for NBA Allstar Weekend with sponsorship by Paletas Cannabis. It's a party you won't want to miss! We are also joined by Chuck T, the founder of Rich City Studios and friend of Hyde Street Studios, who is here to shed some light on several new hip-hop artists that are coming up in the Bay Area and showcase some samples of the works he does in his Richmond based studio. The hip-hop movement in the Bay is special in its own way, which sets it apart from the movements of New York, Los Angeles, Memphis, Atlanta and beyond. It reaches much further than the Hyphy movement and continues to evolve with the landscape of the music industry.

  • Ep. 10: Beats, Brushes, and Broken Rules - Oakland’s DIY Electronic Underground Unplugged
    May 5 2025
    This week's episode takes us into the world of electronic music. Does instrumentation make that much of a difference? Is it still music or just noise? We explore the eclectic side of Bay Area music with our correspondent Escher T as they take us to an exclusive DIY show at the Storefront Gallery in Oakland for an exploration of "the noise scene", with a concert that is part electronic live show and part interactive art installation. We welcome industry legend Shango B'Kongo-Rayo into the podcast studio to recall his time staying, rehearsing and performing at Music City while he shares his vast history of music, his experience at the crossroad of instrumentation and electronic sound and his life-long relationship with Living Colour drummer Will Calhoun. Shango's live performance at Music City also featured Pablo Callejero and Jaron Lanier and is available for viewing on YouTube under the title "Cuban Trance". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3pRpSS10dc Correspondent - Escher TGuest - Shango B'Kongo-Rayo Learn more about your ad choices.
