For people who enjoy live music in gorgeous settings, the outdoor Mill Valley Music Festival is coming up, nestled in the verdant community that Jerry Garcia and Janis Joplin once called home.
The fourth annual fest takes place over one May weekend and features a few new attractions and activities. Among other things, there’s going to be a fairy-tale puppet show with giant puppets, a massive mural-painting project to celebrate Mill Valley’s 125th anniversary, and back from hiatus the surreal Silent Disco where you can “dance like nobody’s watching.”
And of course there’s music. Saturday’s bill includes guitarist and singer Gary Clark Jr., the Crosby Collective with Special Guests, Malian singer Vieux Farka Touré and hip-hop group Ghost-Note. Then on Sunday, attendees can jam to Nile Rodgers & Chic, psychedelic-soul group Monophonics, the Jamaican DJ Sister Nancy and East L.A.’s Thee Sinseers – plus many more artists on a second and more-intimate stage focusing on local talent. Come for the music, stay to enjoy the lovely redwoods in the shadow of Mount Tamalpais.
Details: Fest takes place noon-7 p.m. on May 10 and 11 at Friends Field, 180 Camino Alto, Mill Valley; one-day adult general admission is $147 and available at millvalleymusicfest.com
