The Stern Grove Festival continues its 87th season with free concerts at San Francisco’s Sigmund Stern Grove on Sunday afternoon, but you didn’t have to have a ticket to enjoy the music live.
In May, organizers organized the Stern Grove Festival announced the full schedule of summer concerts for 2024, including this weekend’s headliner, Latin soul band Chicano Batman.
The genre-crushing Los Angeles-based group, built around musicians Eduardo Arenas (bass, guitar, vocals), Carlos Arévalo (guitar, keyboards) and Bardo Martinez (vocals, keyboards, guitar) and Gabriel Villa (drums), formed in 2008. Describing their blend of funk, R&B and rock as “psychedelic soul,” the band have become a popular touring attraction, with their fan base getting a major boost when they were called upon to support Jack White on a leg of his Lazaretto Tour in 2015.
Since then they have performed at popular music festivals such as Bonnaroo, Coachella, Ruido and Sasquatch! while graduating as a headliner at theater venues across the country. The group recently released their latest album Notebook Fantasytheir third album for ATO Records and first new music since the pandemic.
Last year marked the first time CBS News Bay Area partnered with Stern Grove to broadcast and stream most of the season’s concerts. Information on how to watch Sunday’s show can be found below.
