Interview: SoFA Street Fair returns with eclectic day of free music in San Jose
“The Bay Bridged: How would you describe the San Jose music scene for those unfamiliar with the territory?
Jimmy Arceneaux: There are a ton of great, talented young bands in the region that are kind of hidden, because of their location, to the greater Bay Area music scene. The problem is there are so many bands and not enough venues for them to play, especially if they’re underage. Most of the venues here are twenty-one plus, and it’s really tough for the kids to gig when all their friends can’t come to a show.
Gary Avila: I agree. The live music scene is definitely improving around here, but the kids do need some venues of their own. I think SoFA may help kickstart the push for more all ages shows in the area.”
