Bay Beats at the Bandshell 2026
May 2, 2026 — White Crate and a slew of community organizations teamed up with Bay Beats and the San Francisco Public Library to present more electric live performances! Mayya, Naked Roommate and Noelle & The Deserters—three incredible local artists across the alt psych, dance punk, and country spectrums—play this free show. Plus, DJ Brain Waver on the decks.
This show is happening to highlight the 2026 submissions round for Bay Beats, the SFPL’s streaming platform, which accepts entries until May 31st. If their music is selected for the platform, artists receive an honorarium of $300.
WC06 — Curated by Nico Peña
April 25, 2026 — For White Crate’s curated concert series, we ask someone who is part of the local scene to curate a lineup that reflects their community—not just a bill, but a point of view. Nico Peña, the curator for WC06, is everywhere, playing with his band, DJing, showing up for other artists, and constantly reshaping his sound.
For this show, PEÑA reworked their catalog into a jazz set, stretched out and reimagined. Also performed: I Am the Octopus! with East Bay instrumental jazz energy that can drift into the cosmic and still keep things moving. And Leela Paymai, performing with her Persian jazz band as Zheniia, coming off the release of the new album Saraab.
Noise Pop Fest 2026
February 26, 2026 — White Crate returned to Noise Pop in 2026 for a specially-curated happy hour at Bender’s Bar & Grill featuring three of our favorite local underground artists: Ryan Christopher Parks of B. Hamilton, Tom Conneely & Birds of Paradise, and Agouti.
White Crate 5-Year Anniversary
October 9, 2025 — The five year anniversary party for White Crate at Rickshaw Stop featured our dream lineup: La Doña, PEÑA BOLERO!, and Louie El Ser (DJ). As part of the event, we premiered Bay Area Music Love, a short film documenting the origins of White Crate and the momentum of local music over the past five years. In addition to interviews with the founders Ronny Kerr and Elliot Engel, the short film highlights the voices of several of our favorite artists, curators, and creators in the local community.
