It’s time again to set all clocks forward an hour to comport with Daylight Saving Time, to make better use of the longer daylight available during summer. Officially begins at 2am, which becomes 3am when clocks are set forward. DST runs until Nov. 2, the first Sunday in November.

Critic Jared Rasic writes, "Once again, I’ve divided my guesses into what should win vs. what will win, but with so many of the nominees this year coming from movies I genuinely enjoyed, I’ll be happy no matter who takes home the little bald man."

The Shape of Things, running at The 222 in Healdsburg through March 2, is the tale of four university students whose paths cross and how their lives change (for the better? for the worse?) over the span of 18 weeks.

Friday and Saturday bring the return of MOSAIC, with live dance performances by UPside Dance Company and dance films from SF Dance Film Festival. See these and other events listed in our online calendar...

Tthis isn’t just the “Best of” the 2024 festival, it includes films from the past 10 years of festivals. “Next week includes all winning films from the four festivals we have produced,” said Pamela Demorest, who co-founded the Festival with husband Kirk Demorest.

"The Shape of Things," a play by Neil LaBute, will be performed on stage at The 222 on two successive weekends, Feb. 21-23 and Feb. 28-March 2. It’s billed as a “fascinating study into the nature of love and art, and what happens when the two collide.” Tickets from free (18 and under) to $105 (gold level seating).

Last year saw the release of Jeremie Albino’s fourth album, Our Time in the Sun, which he recorded at Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach’s studio in Nashville. Praised by music journal No Depression for its “heart-on-he-sleeve” intensity, the 12-song collection pays the 32-year-old musician’s deep respect for not only the blues, but also early R&B, classic country, old-school rock ’n’ roll and a whole lot of Southern soul.

Often voted Best Dance Band in local music polls and surveys, the Pulsators have been seen on Healdsburg stages since back in the day, if not earlier. They’ve lost none of their ska-rock R&B roots, and they’ll bring it all to the Coyote Den on Sunday.

Rev. Horton Heat's music has been labeled psychobilly, alt-rock and latter-wave rockabilly, and he’s well versed in not only some of the same ground the Stray Cats trod, but also old-school country and blues.
