Cafe Coda provides nourishment for the hungry, the thirsty, and the entertainment deprived. Coda serves the best breakfast imaginable, from 7-2 daily, as well as lunch from 11-2 M-F. Cafe Coda features fresh, local produce, house made breads and Chico's most innovative menus.
In addition, Cafe Coda transforms into an all-ages music venue every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. Each show features the best talent Chico has to offer alongside the hottest touring acts. The style of music changes from night to night, so go ahead and visit www.cafecoda.com for our calendar of upcoming musical events (including pics/bios/links to music for all bands).
*NOTE* We only do shows on THURS/FRI/SAT nights. Please do not inquire about playing if you need Sun-Wed (unless you have a stellar lineup of locals confirmed). Booking can be done by emailing Dan at dan@cafecoda.com or through this myspace. Please allow 1-2 weeks for response.
A Bit About Promoting:
We love hosting shows, but we love hosting successful shows even more. If you'd like to see a good crowd at your show, please adhere to the following and your chances of success will increase:
-Make Fliers: if you design a flier and print out a stack of them (about 25 black & white is fine) and drop them off/mail them to Cafe Coda, Dan will personally distribute them around town for you.
-Put Your Show on Chicolist: visit www.chicolist.com to submit your show. Please follow all regulations for posting.
-Spread the Word Of Mouth: telling your friends and other bands that you know is the single best way to get people to come out
-Go Above and Beyond: contact local papers (Synthesis, Chico News & Review, etc.) and ASK for press. It's unlikely you'll get any love from these unless you go out of your way and bug them. The more you bug them, the more likely they are to help you out. Please don't hesitate to ask for "PROMO 101", a .pdf file we can email you with all the necessary contact info for promoting in Chico.

and if you haven't heard, I just posted 5 NEW songs, so have a listen if you get the chance!
In case you were interested, Cave Paintings is now up for download from my page. Take it as a free trip of me fading into you, and I hope it can be the art of thought and realization. Its music I make when I am not right, alone in my workshop, so hope you can take it as your own piece of alone time. Take it easy. -peace
