Live Music Weekend Roundup October 7 to October 9
Jumping into October with all four feet, there are so many fun things to do while the weather is still warm. The The Northern California Renaissance Faire runs weekends through October 23, and the creative mind is starting to consider what to wear for Halloween. While you’re out rummaging for costume ideas, why not drop into your favorite hang for some live music, a bit of sustenance, and a libation. Here are some musical offerings for the weekend of October 7, 2022 in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Santa Cruz, and nearby.
