SAN FRANCISCO, CA- Travis Hayes is set to close at The Independent (628 Divisadero St. San Francisco, CA 94117) on Thursday September 15th at 8 PM. He will be playing with M. Lockwood Porter, and Vandella. Advance tickets will be $12 and tickets at the door will be $14.

Travis Hayes has been taking the west coast by storm —  headlining the Great American Music Hall in May, Neck of the Woods in June, and performing at Harvard and Stone in Los Angeles. Simply put by Music Junkie Press, “If you are from the Bay Area and haven’t been to a Travis Hayes show, then you are missing out.”
