Music City San Francisco, a star factory, a revolutionary media production factory and artist incubator, is poised to redefine the global musical narrative. Envision a place where the spirit of Motown Records meets the raw energy of CBGB’s, the creative soul of Abbey Road Studios, the innovation of the Berklee School of Music, and the legacy of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — now imagine it all under one roof, in the heart of San Francisco. That’s Music City San Francisco.
This is the most important music project in San Francisco — a fully immersive, artist-powered ecosystem combining housing, rehearsal and recording studios, live venues, and the only San Francisco Music Hall of Fame. We’re building a permanent home for the past, present, and future of music in the city to revitalize the San Francisco music scene.
We have recently upgraded the infrastructure to include one of the largest recording studios in Northern California, an Artist Development education center with onsite classrooms, and a premium, broadcast quality live streaming production house.
Stunning and one-of-a-kind 29,000 square foot facility with 3 floors (16,000+ sq/ft ) being newly renovated and opened in 2024. Facility contains 15 fully equipped music rehearsal rooms wired for audio and visual recording/streaming capabilities, six live performance and event rental spaces including a beautiful main venue area with 150+ assembly capacity. All venues are equipped with state of the art sound and lighting systems and can be configured for a variety of uses and seating arrangements. Facility has two permanent bars, a primary bar in the main venue area, as well as a bar in the back of the building complete with a serving window giving access to F&B sales to the Fern Alley public space behind the building which is regularly activated for public events. There is also capability for a satellite bar in the basement level containing the other performance venues. Facility carries a Type 47 liquor license and has a brand new kitchen complete with two walk-in refrigerators and a walk-in freezer. Hotel on the top two floors contains 36 rooms, and capacity for 100 beds in shared dormitory configuration. Hotel rooms have music themed decor and the majority of them contain brand new Japanese Sleep Capsule beds, the first location on the West Coast to have true Japanese-style sleep capsules. Building also contains the San Francisco Music Hall of Fame, with exhibit cases built into the walls of the newly renovated floors, as well as an existing Hall of Fame Gallery on the top two floors of the building containing 90+ images and original write ups of Bay Area music artists, complete with audio tour component. Building is fully seismically braced and additionally features newly upgraded transformers.
We have the ability to attract tens of thousands of musicians to the only Northern CA music site. Essentially a Brick & Mortar launching pad for artist development... If you are a music enthusiast and want to play the big time, well here we are! Is making music history a goal of yours?
