Be the first to experience the only concert series with a waterfront venue on the Central Coast. Plan your next weekend getaway to swing and soak in the sun as part of Morro Bay’s first ever Concerts on the Bay. With the photogenic bay and iconic Morro Rock as the backdrop, this performance is set to be a treat for music and outdoor lovers alike. Planned during our “second summer,” it’s the locals’ best kept secret that September and October boast warm sunshine with the most colorful sunsets of the year.

Nestled between ever-popular Giovanni’s Fish Market and STAX Wine Bar, this small venue makes for a personal experience with no more than 500 guests. Delicious food from the fish market as well as an array of local wines and beverages will be available for your enjoyment.

As a VIP, you’ll get to savor a hot dinner and refreshing drinks served to you while you listen. Purchase your tickets NOW before they’re all gone.

Check out the powerhouse line up of musicians that will be in attendance:

Blues legend Rick Estrin and the Nightcats and Elektric Voodoo - September 30, 2017

Elektric Voodoo is a "World Beat Rock & Roll" band from southern California that blends classic afrobeat, latin, rock & roll, psych, jazz, blues and many other influences into its own unique genre that tastefully straddles the line between modern and vintage. Rick Estrin, according to The San Francisco Chronicle, “is an amazing harmonica player, a soulful lead vocalist and a brilliant songwriter.” Rick Estrin serves up fresh and modern original blues injected with a solid dose of gritty roadhouse rock ‘n’ roll.     

Jungle Fire and Orgone - October 14, 2017

Jungle Fire digs deep into afro/latin funk music with a highly explosive psychedelic and uniquely Angeleno flavor! Serving up a healthy dose of originals and deep latin/afro funk covers all cooked up together in a live mixtape style set ensuring an energy that is nothing short of fire. Orgone delivers dirty, organic, California soul with heart; music that grabs you by the collar, pulls you to your feet and shoves you wantingly onto the dance floor. It all started with two kids from the San Fernando Valley, whose shared affinity for gritty soul records of the 60s and 70s collided with the colorful music cultures brewing in Los Angeles during the late 90s.
