Rock, metal, EDM, blues, and jazz in City Heights, Little Italy, Bay Park, Downtown
Peach Cooler took its name as a wordplay version of the singer’s name
February 28
Peach Cooler took its name as a wordplay version of the singer’s name, Paige Koehler. Their Got A Lot To Say EP dropped last summer, along with a video for the title track shot at a suspension bridge in Mission Hills and around the streets of OB and Point Loma, where most of the bandmembers live. The City Heights bill includes Micah! and The Messengers.
Great Electric Quest at Soda Bar
March 1
Formed in 2010, North County heavy metal band Great Electric Quest made their recorded debut in 2013 with a demo CD, followed in 2015 by an EP called Prelude and their full-length Chapter One the following year. They earned attention in 2023 for their cover of Budgie’s “Riding My Nightmare.” Also appearing will be Boston-based band Worshipper, as well as Soulseller and Mezzoa.
CRSSD Spring 2025 at Waterfront Park
March 1 and 2
The CRSSD Spring 2025 edition of the annual music festival began as a heavy electronic showcase with a focus on EDM acts, and has since booked an increasing number of indie rock bands, as well as pop, hip-hop, and RnB performers. This year’s bill includes French EDM act Justice, French star Kavinsky, Australian performer Fisher, masked producer Claptone, Sasha and Digweed, a DJ set from Jungle, and more.
March 3
Fronted by singer and co-founder Laura Jane Willcock, The Tighten Ups are a soul, funk, blues, and rock band known for their horn section and tight rhythm section. In 2009, they were nominated for a San Diego Music Award as Best Cover/Tribute Band, and they’ve served many local venue residencies, including an ongoing monthly set at Oceanside’s Pour House. Willcock birthday show in Little Italy, dubbed the 41st Fish Party (“honoring all Pisces”), includes a reunion of Ocean Beach band Cape May.
Sue Palmer & Her Motel Swing Orchestra at Tio Leo’s
March 4
Sue Palmer, known as The Queen of Boogie Woogie, played with Tobacco Road for around a dozen years, earning seven San Diego Music Awards with the band from 1986 through 1994. She first earned widespread attention while backing up blues belter Candye Kane. Now fronting her own group, she’ll be joined in Bay Park by her Motel Swing Orchestra.
