Event Description

🎟 Tap in: unabridged-sf.com

Fresh off the Unabridged Weekender, As You Like It returns with the second edition of its Backyard BBQ series, featuring a very special guest: Theo Parrish (open to close).

“Theo is the creative heartbeat of Detroit,” says As You Like It founder Jeremy Bispo. “His DIY ethos and cultural long view represent the past, present, and future.”

At the Unabridged Backyard BBQ at The Loom, Theo Parrish delivers more than a set, he offers a journey: deep, unpredictable, and unapologetically free.

SMARTBOMB takes over the Universe Room with Space Ghost, RITCHRD, onmommas, ET V, THREE6SASHIA and live visuals by Erik Wilson.

SMARTBOMB stands as one of Oakland’s most vital cultural engines, a curatorial project and multimedia platform rooted in community, experimentation, and fearless creative expression. Since 2013, the collective has consistently championed boundary-pushing artists across disciplines, from music and visual art to film and performance, creating space for voices that challenge convention and expand the landscape of contemporary culture.

Sonny’s NVR OVR BBQ returns with a menu inspired by classic Midwest backyard cookouts.

DANCE YOUR HISTORY, DANCE YOUR STORY, DANCE YOUR WAY HOME.

What Will J.T. Hiskey Perform Opening for Blueface? Here’s Our Prediction

Expect “100 Grand” to shake the room, newer records from The Summer Tape 2 to show up, and maybe a few unreleased cuts designed specifically for these Blueface crowds. Hiskey’s sets tend to move fast and hit hard, balancing party records with rawer street-leaning material. If past shows are a clue, this won’t be a low-key opener.See More
