DIIV’s Colin Caulfield lets us in on new music ahead of his show at Desert Daze Caravan 2018’s TJ after-party.

Head to the Casbah to catch the Dwarves and the Widows, who will be celebrating the close to the San Diego Tattoo Invitational.

Our mayor of local music is back with some of the best shows in May, from Cults to Hot Snakes and Afghan Whigs to Franz Ferdinand.

Give thanks: We’ve got New Found Glory, Guns N’ Roses, Cults, and Mogwai coming our way this month — scope these top picks from 91x’s Tim Pyles.

Robin Roth’s top weekend show picks include the two-day Oysterfest at Marina Embarcadero North, Merchandise at Space Bar, and Earthless at the Casbah.

Don’t ignore the hype: Catch buzz band Overcoats at their intimate Casbah show Thursday before they go on to bigger stages.

San Diego artists have another, more unique route to take when it comes to releasing their music — North County’s Petra-Fi Records, which specializes in small-run vinyl pressings.
