Be aware of local road conditions to plan your next road trip to Morro Bay
Learn MoreMorro Bay is a seaside getaway located right off scenic Highway 1 on the Central Coast of California. More than that, it’s a backdrop for the perfect coastal adventure. The centerpiece of this coastal haven? Morro Rock— a volcanic monolith rising from the depths of the sea. This rock has guided generations of fish captains home, their holds brimming with the freshest California catch. It peels off perfect Central Coast waves, delighting surfers and young whitewash adventurers alike. It’s a salt-rimmed beacon, the guardian of fresh oyster beds, home to seals and sea birds.
Through all that chatter, one thing is certain: if Morro Rock could talk, it would tell you to Come Get Salty in Morro Bay.

The Flower Machine will be at the Siren on July 19th from 8:00 pm to 11:00 pm. The Band is one of the longest-running neo-psychedelic rock bands from California, debuting in 2004 with their album Chalk Dust Dream of the Tea Cozy Mitten Company. The band has had half-a-dozen records released on Micro Indie Records, small room (EMI Thailand), Rainbow Quartz, and Hypnotic Bridge Records. Known for their dense, heavily overdubbed sound and frequent use of vintage synthesizers and mellotrons, The Flower Machine kicked off 2025 with all-new album entitled Waterloo Green, which received favorable coverage from Shindig Magazine in London.
Led by Dutch American singer and guitarist Peter Quinnell, they draw inspiration from Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd, Dutch legends The Outsiders, and Kevin Ayers. New to the Morro Bay scene, they provide an authentic retro-psych vibe unlike anything you've ever heard. This is their first local performance since moving up to Morro Bay from Los Angeles and will feature special guests.

Mike O’Hehir, the man at the heart of Coyote Island, is an old soul, but the music he’s crafted with his band and growing collection of diverse collaborators is as fresh as anything going today. From the breezy and bouncy mix of Caribbean beats and contemporary pop production that blasted “Here Before” into the post-pandemic public consciousness to the meditative and moody organ that makes “Shine through the Darkness” a glimmering beacon for lost souls, his songs are mood enhancements and attitude adjustments — perfect for a generation of music lovers looking for a path forward.
