Be part of the In Sect! Do the crawl, the shimmy and the shake, or whatever it takes to shed that skin you're in. Bay Beats takes over the Golden Gate Park Bandshell on May 2nd to highlight the 2026 submissions round, which runs until May 31st. This is the second year in a row for a Bay Beats showcase at the 'Shell on the first Saturday in May. It's a seasonal thang! Here's the sweet lineup:

2:00 - Noelle & The Deserters - Country / Americana

3:00 - Naked Roommate - Absurdist dance punk

4:00 - Mayya - Psychedelic rock

Music between sets by @brain_waver.

Come for games, tabling by partners and food trucks, but mostly come to spread your wings and fly, basking in Bay Beats. This show is presented by SFPL in partnership with Illuminate, Amoeba, White Crate, BFF.fm, and SF Rec & Park.
