We are only on day twenty-five and weekend number four of the new year and already Amoeba Music has kicked into full gear with quality in-store performances already underway. Last weekend talented local hip-hop outfit 40Love put on quite a show at the San Francisco Amoeba Music and last night Sia was scheduled to perform at the Hollywood store.  And if you missed that show don't worry Hollywood Amoeba has lots more lined up.

Tomorrow (Saturday) at the Hollywood Amoeba Music store Grace Potter & the Nocturnals  are scheduled to perform a mid-afternoon show, starting at 3PM.  Meanwhile on Sunday afternoon up in the Bay, Brooklyn's ever-pleasing, hook-laden, synth-driven, female trio Au Revoir Simone  (see video above of the song Fallen Snow off their new album The Bird of Music) will play a 2PM show at the San Francisco Amoeba on Haight Street that I recommend you attend if possible. 

And as always with Amoeba - all of these cool-ass shows are FREE and ALL AGES. Such a deal!  Oh yeah, it may be over three weeks away but mark your calenders now for Feb 18th when legendary hometown group Flipper play the San Francisco Amoeba Music stage at 6PM. (note: it's a Monday evening show)

And finally for this weekend the 2nd Annual Amoeba Staff Art Show in San Francisco at the Space Gallery @ 1141 Polk Street will host its opening reception tonight, starting at 7PM and going til 2AM, while the exhibit will run through tomorrow (Saturday).
