BARF is back and bigger than ever

From some of the masterminds that brought to us Father/Daughter Records, Noise Pop & Amoeba Music, Bay Area Record Fair is back on Sunday, November 19. It’s not just taking all of Swedish American Hall, but also all of Cafe Du Nord.

The venues will be decked out with the people that make the Bay Area independent music scene so beautiful and welcoming. From the young kids too hip to stare at for too long, who have transformed their garage into their own DIY label, to the dad who rents out an office in the Dogpatch that is too cool to be a dad and that makes dad culture way too hip. Those are only two examples and really two of the most stereotypical. BARF rakes in all the types and puts them together to remind you how wonderful this scene is really is.
