Music: indy, rock, hip-hop, soul
Cover: $15 | SMC All Access Pass holder $5 OFF

Sunset presents three live artists from legendary Bay Area hip-hop label Quannum Projects. Epik funk and modern soul is the mission of Honeycut, a local group whose low profile belies massive recent radio play. On the other hand, Tommy Guerrero is a major name, albeit in skateboarding circles, but has shocked the world with his more recent dive into music. As Esquire Magazine recently said... "don't worry if you haven't got a clue who Tommy Guerrero is... simply accept that he has excellent taste. This is simmering." And then there's Curumin, a household name all over Brazil who needed the prodding of Bay Area musicians like Chief XCel and Lyrics Born to release his music stateside. The result is a boon for the Bay, with beat-driven funk interlaced with soulful samba.
