Take me to tinsel town: a music lover's holiday gift guide - 48 hills
"For example: shopping for someone who wants to let everyone know they go to live shows and get down 'n' dirty in the mosh pits? Grab a shirt from the iconic SF venue The Fillmore to put that non-verbal message on blast. Or maybe the object of your affection is seeking more low-key musical attention? They can signal fondness for reggae, dub, and drum and bass via a lid, custom tee, mug, beer koozie, or even a dog scarf proclaiming dedication to the low-end goodness of DJ SEP."
"Perhaps your giftee is craving holiday music that feels familiar but fresh this season? Our friends at Colemine Records have some jingle for those soulful bells many will be ringin' this wintertime. First up, the organ trio Parlor Greens with a beautiful and warmhearted instrumental version of William Bell's "Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday." And then Kelly Finnegan from SF's psychedelic soul outfit The Monophonics lays out the heavy-but-still-cool-as-the-other-side-of-the-pillow vibes on "I Can't Wait (For Christmas Time)", filled with that Mission street cruisin' type of feel. (You can pre-order both here.)"
"How about enjoying global comfort food accompanied by soulful jazz performances at a youth-run supper club that empowers young people through job training, employment, and a supportive community? You can also give the gift of experiencing the delightful cuisine of Old Skool Cafe, situated in the vibrant Bayview, this holiday season. (The spot's sweet potato biscuit bites are highly recommended.) Treat yourself and your loved ones by making a reservation, pre-ordering your meal-or surprising someone special with a one-month Old Skool Cafe membership, a gift that warms hearts twice."
Gift options span iconic venue apparel, niche artist merchandise, new holiday music releases, and culinary experiences. A Fillmore shirt signals live-show credibility and mosh pit enthusiasm. DJ SEP merchandise — including lids, custom tees, mugs, beer koozies, and dog scarves — celebrates reggae, dub, and drum-and-bass fandom. Colemine Records features Parlor Greens' instrumental take on William Bell's "Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday" and Kelly Finnegan's "I Can't Wait (For Christmas Time)" for fresh, soulful seasonal music. Old Skool Cafe in Bayview offers global comfort food with soulful jazz, reservations, pre-orders, and one-month memberships that support youth job training and community.
