Franklin Jonas has maintained a steady presence in San Francisco's live music circuit, with a particularly memorable stop at The Fillmore in October 2023. That night caught him in good form, running through a set that balanced his deeper catalog cuts with the songs that pull people into the room. The Fillmore crowd tends to be attentive but not reverent, and Jonas seemed to feed off that energy—the kind of room where you can actually hear what's happening. He closed out the evening with an encore that felt earned rather than obligatory, the sort of thing that makes you remember why you bothered to go out on a weeknight.

San Francisco's music venues have always been strange democrats about genre. The city's ballrooms and theaters treat folk, indie rock, and experimental music with roughly equal regard, which means artists like Jonas slot in naturally alongside whatever else is happening that week. There's a long tradition here of audiences caring more about authenticity than category, which probably explains why someone with Jonas's sensibility keeps finding appreciative rooms.

Stay in Hayes Valley or the Mission—both neighborhoods have the kind of restaurants and bars that make a weekend feel deliberate rather than touristy. Head to State Bird Provisions for dinner if you can get in; it's precise and inventive without being pretentious. Spend a day in Muir Woods or hiking around Twin Peaks for actual views of the city. The de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park is worth a couple hours if the weather holds. Hit up a coffee place on Valencia Street in the Mission just to sit and watch the neighborhood move around you.
