9PM


$8 adv (early birds)


$10 door





We are proud of bringing together two special acts, Sonamo' - Italian Funk and PizziCali for an unforgettable Italian night.


Prepare yourself for a full immersion in the Italian Culture, we will take from the deepest Italian Traditions of PizziCali to the modern and original sound of Sonamo' - Italian Funk.





About Sonamo' - Italian Funk, you probably know what Funk is, you may know what Italian music sounds like, but do you have any idea of what Italian Funk Music is?


Fresh and definitely unique, Sonamo’ is one the hottest band in the SF Bay Area, bringing the energy, the happiness and the quality of their music on stage.


We dare to change your perception of Italian while keeping the Italian influence at the backbone.


As a matter of fact, Sonamo’ performs tunes that have roots in the deepest Italian tradition with African, Hispanic and Middle Eastern influence, since the Italian territory has been colonized by many different cultures throughout the history.


In a nutshell, you can dance it or listen to it, you’ll have a blast either way. You must experience it first-hand to believe.





And of course, spinning the discs before, in between and after our sets there will be DJ Msk that never disappoints and it makes harder to leave the venue when the show is over!

Sonamo' - Italian Funk


Sonamo' meaning comes from a dialect word from Napoli (ITALY) which literally means “play now!” but it's actually slang for "show me what you got [in a provocative way]”.


Band founder Giuseppe Pinto moved to San Francisco CA in 2010 from Italy, after walking his path through the music scene in the city, he started playing with several local bands and artists.


After few years, he came to the realization that there is a lack of modern Italian music in the American music scene. On top of all, Italian music is well known and often associated with its classical side while there is an unknown world of jazz and funk.


The meeting with guitarist Trent Berry brought to the decision of putting together a band that can express a smooth blend between Italian and American culture through music.


The band proposes original music where one can listen to possible to the different background of each band member
