Our 2015 fundraiser is over! Thank you to everyone for supporting local music and The Bay Bridged!
Our 2015 Year End Fundraiser is now over! Thanks to all of you, we're on strong footing as the year begins. While we may not have met our (lofty) goal of raising $25,000 this year, each and every dollar received will be put to good use to create more events, cover even more bands, and support this Bay Area music community we care so much about. Simply put, we can't express our gratitude enough, and we really appreciate all of you joining us in supporting the Bay Area music scene. So thank you very much and we hope you think the [...]
Today is your last chance to give! Celebrate the new year with one final gift…
Yes, it's New Year's Eve. It's time to party. But before you head out and watch the confetti rain down from the ceilings of every venue in the Bay Area (while some great local bands perform, of course), we hope you will join The Bay Bridged with a tax-deductible donation to truly end 2015 with a bang and make next year the best it can possibly be for local music. Since our fundraiser is nearly over, that also means today is your last chance to order our 10th Anniversary Compilation featuring 45 rare and unheard tracks from the Bay Area's [...]

Bear Call shares an uplifting tune on our 10th Anniversary Compilation
As many of you are already aware, The Bay Bridged is currently celebrating 10 years of covering the Bay Area independent music community. One of the many gifts available when donating to our fundraiser is our 10th anniversary compilation featuring music from 40+ Bay Area artists. The compilation features San Francisco act Bear Call with their song "You're Not There", a track of approachable pop tunage that listeners who seek upbeat music complete with guitar riffs and dreamy vocals are sure to love. From our end-of-year compilation to your personal holiday party playlists, it's a song from our own celebration [...]
The Bay Bridged Fundraiser ends on December 31st!
There's only 3 days left in our 2015 Year End Fundraiser and we still need your help.

When the clock strikes midnight this Thursday and it becomes January 1, we’ll be closing our 2015 Year End Fundraiser campaign. Once the fundraiser is complete, the 10th Anniversary Compilation streams will come down and you will no longer be able to order the compilation. Make sure you don't miss out on these 45 awesome songs! But that's only [...]
