It's quite unusual for me to recommend a daytime show, especially when there is so much happening tonight, but after meeting the Makepeace Brothers at Sunset Sessions a few weeks ago -- watch the video here -- I have to say that it will be totally worth your while to track them down today after the run for the Chelsea's Light Foundation. They told us there would be an evening performance as well, but since those details still are hard to come by, I'll just say hang out on the west side of Balboa Park after the morning run and catch the upliftng performance by the brothers in San Diego's beautiful sunshine. Jason Mraz loves them and so will you.
