On Sunday, June 15th, internationally touring folk reggae musician Justin Ancheta joins alternative rockers The Blondies and folk rock band Muir Valley Settlers to perform at the Downtown Berkeley Eats, Beats & Brews block party, which also features an outdoor beer garden by Drakes Brewing and delicious food from around the world. The internationally acclaimed Justin Ancheta Band plays an eclectic style of reggae-flavored funk and jazz with mixed musical backgrounds, including classical, flamenco, reggae, latin, funk, and rock, bringing a new style of indie folk known as 'Folklyrico Americana.'
The Blondies play a progressive alternative retro rock similar to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Muir Valley Settlers are an acoustic indie/folk rock band whose unique sound reflects the new indie rock movement. Their catchy guitar melodies and vocal harmonies will leave you singing and humming throughout the night. DJ Chetta-MoBetta will spin between bands and in the beginning, so get there early to get your mid-day drink on, and chill with some good tunes, maybe even dance!
Eats, Beats & Brews showcases Center Street restaurants serving over 15 different international cuisines. On June 15th, noon to 6pm, Eats Beats and Brews features Cancun Sabor Mexicano food booth and Bacon Bacon San Francisco food truck serving everything from bacon fried chicken to bacon grilled cheese sandwiches.

June 8th - Into the Pacific delighted the crowd at with their unique indie rock sound that was both catchy and soulful.
