July 13 | Boca do Rio

Boca do Rio strengthens is the Bay Area’s longest-playing and hardest-hitting Brazilian-American funk band.

With pure tones that will carry you from old school to new school, this tight knit group is not to be missed.  Members Tom Menig, Eric Menig, Rob Kopp, Jenn Knapp and Lucas Weber are no strangers to the stage as these dynamic players have been starring members of bands such as “The Dead Beats” and”The Cheatin’ Buzzies”.
