Event Details

First Friday Concert Series | Oakland

Every First Friday after Art Murmur in Oakland, The Uptown holds a free concert featuring local musicians and beyond covering indie rock, electronica, hip hop and everything in between.

There is no cover, doors open at 6 pm and the show starts at 9 pm.

The Uptown Nightclub is closed as of November 6, 2014.

One of San Francisco’s most talked about bands, The Soft White Sixties, have been hailed by some press as legitimate heirs to the Maximum R&B moniker placed on The Who some 40-plus years ago, and while that’s not un-true, The Soft White Sixties offer so much more.

Like a perfect collision between the sweetly subversive melodies of T-Rex and the hard-edged pop sensibilities of The Strokes, The ‘Sixties brand of rock ‘n roll blends heavy, soulful grooves with a driving beat.

Opening the show will be Whiskerman, Mahgeetah, plus special guests.
