SUMMARY:Johnny Z and the Camaros
DESCRIPTION:Witness a true piece of San Francisco musical history as Johnny Z and the Camaros take the stage at Tupelo. If you’ve spent any time in the city’s jazz and rock circuits over the last few decades\, you likely know this band; they famously served as the house band for the legendary Gold Dust Lounge for over 20 years. Bringing that same “workhorse” energy to North Beach\, the Camaros deliver a high-fidelity\, veteran performance that proves why they are often called the “tightest band in the land.” \nThe Sound: Led by vocalist and guitarist John R. Nichols (aka Johnny Z)\, the band occupies a “sweet spot” of Classic Rock\, Soul\, Blues\, and Country. Their style is heavily influenced by 20th-century R&B giants like Otis Redding and Sam & Dave\, often peppered with “Surf action” instrumentals that highlight Johnny Z’s virtuosic guitar work. \nThe Catalog: With a repertoire built from playing seven nights a week for two decades\, their songbook is staggering. Expect a seamless transition from soulful Motown grooves to gritty rock-and-roll anthems\, all delivered with the effortless chemistry that only comes from thousands of hours on stage together. \nA North Beach Homecoming: Tupelo is one of the few places where you can still catch this legendary trio in an intimate setting. The venue’s lively\, red-lit atmosphere perfectly matches the band’s high-energy\, “no-nonsense” approach to live performance. \nNo Cover: This elite piece of San Francisco history is open to the public with no cover charge. It is a must-see for anyone wanting to experience the authentic sound of the city’s musical backbone. \n\nAbout Johnny Z and the Camaros\nJohnny Z (John R. Nichols) comes from a deep musical pedigree; his father was a trombonist for the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra. After decades of performing with jazz greats and founding various rock outfits\, Nichols established the Camaros as a premier power trio. Known for his “restless melodicism” and soulful vocals\, Johnny Z is joined by a veteran rhythm section—typically featuring “Richie Camaro” on drums and “Stevie Camaro” on bass. Together\, they represent the “last of the live music breed\,” dedicated to preserving the raw\, spontaneous energy of the 20th-century American songbook.

SUMMARY:Mitch Polzak & the Royal Deuces
DESCRIPTION:Get ready as Bird & Beckett Books and Records welcomes the “Real Deal” himself\, Mitch Polzak. Whether he’s flat-picking a guitar or tearing through a banjo solo\, Polzak brings a circus-sized energy (literally—he’s a Ringling Bros. descendant) to the most intimate bookstore stage in San Francisco. \nThe Performance\nThe Music: Mitch Polzak and the Royal Deuces are a powerhouse trio that blurs the lines between Rockabilly\, Western Swing\, and high-energy Bluegrass. Polzak\, a 2024 Western Swing Hall of Fame inductee\, is a virtuoso who performs with the “religious fervor” of Jerry Lee Lewis and the storytelling sincerity of Merle Haggard. \nSpecial Guest: For this Sunday’s session\, the band is joined by legendary pedal steel master Joe Goldmark. Expect shimmering\, cosmic country textures to weave through Polzak’s sharp guitar leads. \nThe Atmosphere: This is a “listening room” in the purest sense. With a capacity of just 35 people\, you aren’t just watching a show; you’re sitting in the middle of a high-fidelity jam session surrounded by floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. \nThe Setting\nThe Venue: Bird & Beckett is a Glen Park landmark. It’s a space where the scent of old paper meets the heat of a vintage Fender amp. The shop’s Bird & Beckett Cultural Legacy Project ensures that serious musicians like Polzak have a home to preserve the “Old San Francisco” spirit of improvisation. \nThe Ritual: This is a BYOB environment. Grab a bottle from the neighborhood market and settle in for a neighborhood party vibe that feels more like a private salon than a public concert.

SUMMARY:Petunia and the Vipers
DESCRIPTION:Petunia grew up in rural Quebec\, in exactly the sort of surroundings that a country musician would find idyllic\, with old dilapidated barns\, secret forts\, and acres of unspoiled land.  As an adult\, the wandering spirit took a firm hold on his life\, so he set out on the road\, playing every major street corner across Canada and throughout the NYC subway system\, before graduating to full fledged touring musician. He currently resides in Vancouver BC\, and works with several sets of sidemen across Canada\, the US and Europe in addition to his own Vancouver based band\, The Vipers. He’s more than just an entertainer\, he’s a modern musical enigma.  Imagine that David Lynch and Nick Cave had a hillbilly baby\, that yodeled… or Tom Waits meets Elvis at Woody Guthrie’s hobo junction.  This is just one way of describing the man known simply as Petunia.  He’s an adventure seeker\, a poker player\, and a mysterious stranger.  He’s been referred to as “The Savior of Country Music”\, and a man who exists in a different era\, bringing the past forth as something new to be celebrated and not forgotten. A restless wanderer\, a musical historian\, and a quirky yet amazing talent\, Petunia joins the greats from north of the 49th for his classic style and raucous performances. \nTogether with his band the Vipers they play original music combining elements of classic 1920’s\, 30’s 40’s\, 50’s\, 60’s\, and 70’s country\, country blues\, western swing\, alt country rock\, Mexicana\, French cabaret\, Romanian\, ragtime\, jazz\, punk and folk music’s. A new music that springboards off of music of the past and jumps into the present day\, left with only echoes of the past… Something in between 1920’s and steam punk.

SUMMARY:Jonn Del Toro Richardson: Unplugged
DESCRIPTION:Jonn Del Toro Richardson grew up around Houston\, Texas\, and you can hear it in every note he sings and plays. You can hear the Latin music that is his birthright – his uncles\, aunts and grandparents played in touring mariachi bands\, and often got together to play on the back porch. You can also hear the influence of the country and R&B music that was played in his house\, and particularly the blues that drifted strongly over his grandparents’ backyard fence from the next neighborhood and took hold with Jonn to be the centerpiece of his musical identity.

SUMMARY:Johnny Z and the Camaros
DESCRIPTION:Witness a true piece of San Francisco musical history as Johnny Z and the Camaros take the stage at Tupelo. If you’ve spent any time in the city’s jazz and rock circuits over the last few decades\, you likely know this band; they famously served as the house band for the legendary Gold Dust Lounge for over 20 years. Bringing that same “workhorse” energy to North Beach\, the Camaros deliver a high-fidelity\, veteran performance that proves why they are often called the “tightest band in the land.” \nThe Sound: Led by vocalist and guitarist John R. Nichols (aka Johnny Z)\, the band occupies a “sweet spot” of Classic Rock\, Soul\, Blues\, and Country. Their style is heavily influenced by 20th-century R&B giants like Otis Redding and Sam & Dave\, often peppered with “Surf action” instrumentals that highlight Johnny Z’s virtuosic guitar work. \nThe Catalog: With a repertoire built from playing seven nights a week for two decades\, their songbook is staggering. Expect a seamless transition from soulful Motown grooves to gritty rock-and-roll anthems\, all delivered with the effortless chemistry that only comes from thousands of hours on stage together. \nA North Beach Homecoming: Tupelo is one of the few places where you can still catch this legendary trio in an intimate setting. The venue’s lively\, red-lit atmosphere perfectly matches the band’s high-energy\, “no-nonsense” approach to live performance. \nNo Cover: This elite piece of San Francisco history is open to the public with no cover charge. It is a must-see for anyone wanting to experience the authentic sound of the city’s musical backbone. \n\nAbout Johnny Z and the Camaros\nJohnny Z (John R. Nichols) comes from a deep musical pedigree; his father was a trombonist for the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra. After decades of performing with jazz greats and founding various rock outfits\, Nichols established the Camaros as a premier power trio. Known for his “restless melodicism” and soulful vocals\, Johnny Z is joined by a veteran rhythm section—typically featuring “Richie Camaro” on drums and “Stevie Camaro” on bass. Together\, they represent the “last of the live music breed\,” dedicated to preserving the raw\, spontaneous energy of the 20th-century American songbook.

SUMMARY:Nashville Honeymoon
DESCRIPTION:Lynne Maes\, rhythm guitar & vocals.\nHank Maninger\, lead guitar & vocals.\nTim Wagar\, bass guitar.\nPaul Revelli drums. \nYou’re in for two sets in honky tonk heaven.  Mainstays of the Bay Area Americana scene\, and the Bird & Beckett bandstand\, for nearly a decade\, Nashville Honeymoon has traversed country\, rockabilly\, bluegrass\, and pop across four albums\, writing songs that uplift the tangled mess of day-to-day life and investigate universal themes of love and loss – often at the same time. Their latest album\, Sidewinder\, is true to its title\, offering a collection of songs that are grounded in classic country while edging into different sounds\, genres\, and themes that run through American pop music.  This is some of the sweetest\, sauciest\, and most sincere country music you’ll ever hear.

DESCRIPTION:Mitch Polzak & The Royal Deuces have the honor of inaugurating The Deluxe’s grand reopening at 1511 Haight Street\, bringing rockabilly and 60s country music to a room that was made for exactly this kind of raw\, reverb-soaked American sound. Polzak delivers the religious fervor of Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash on the uptempo numbers\, then turns around and sells a honky tonk ballad with the quiet sincerity of Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings — a full range of emotion from a performer who understands that great country music is as much about conviction as it is about craft. For a room celebrating its own resurrection\, there may be no more fitting opening night than this.
