Flowers for Angela are a rock band from Berkeley, California. Their music has been described as ‘alt-rock therapy for the neurodivergent,’ but it’s ultimately for everybody. Primarily, they sing about love (and other addictions). Their rollicking rhythms and clever, heartfelt lyrics will make you want to listen – and then relisten, again and again.

The Rough Edges are a classic rock cover band playing songs that you know and love from the 1960s and 1970s. We specialize in high energy, fun-loving songs that played on the radio during that classic era of rock music, but perhaps didn’t peak at number one. So, the songs jog the memory and get you grooving, but don’t feel played out. Our five-piece band, including our array of vocalists, provides a very full sound for your listening pleasures. We are all friends and bring a warmth and sense of fun to our live shows. The Rough Edges are: Juliana Birnbaum (vocals, percussion), Frank Gilbert (guitar), Harry Gray (guitar, vocals), Michael Hanna (bass, vocals) and Neil Sachs (drums, vocals).
