More Flavor: Festival 12th Annual Mission Creek Music & Arts Festival

Noise Pop gets more buzz and Outside Lands nabs the big names, but the Mission Creek Music & Arts Festival still offers the best sampling of underground music around. Founder Jeff Ray has been running Mission Creek on a shoestring budget for 12 years now, filling a familiar gamut of atypical venues (galleries and warehouses in addition to bars/clubs) with forward-thinking, genre-busting bands. Highlights include Tussle, Lazarus, Coconut, and Oaxacan, but Mission Creek is all about chancing upon that amazing, undiscovered gem of a band — so get out there and see for yourself.
