JUST ANNOUNCED

• Snakehips is rolling into NOVA this November with the kind of bass-heavy, soul-sampling magic that makes your neck sore and your serotonin spike. Bring a fan — it’s gonna get sweaty.

• San Diego gets a full night of cumbia, bolero, bossa nova, and bilingual brilliance when La Santa Cecilia hits House of Blues on 9/12. Show up and feel everything.

• Don’t let the pop tag fool you — MØ has punk roots, glitchy instincts, and a voice that hits the dancefloor hard. The Plæygirl World Tour lands 1/27 at Music Box.

• Honor Jimmy Buffett the only way he’d approve of — rooftop cocktails, live music, and doing some good. Margaritaville Hotel is throwing a sunset bash on 8/29 with a Buffett tribute band, beachy bites, and 50% of your check going to music education.*

• Plus, other just-announced shows from Sports Illustrated Women’s Games, Bob Schneider, J.I.D, Young Nudy, The Record Company, and more!

LOCALS ONLY

• Don’t think we forgot about Free Fun Friday. Your bank account deserves a break, and your serotonin doesn’t.
