Lime Garden makes their San Francisco debut at Bottom of the Hill

October 30, 2024

  The Bottom of the Hill has long been known as a venue that showcases great emerging bands, and last night was no exception. Lime Garden from the UK delivered a set that has undoubtedly set the bar high for many bands to follow.

Their set was mesmerizing, made even more special by the addition of a cellist, which added a rich, unexpected layer to their sound. The crowd was hooked from the first note and loved every second of it. Next up was Everyone is Dirty, an Oakland band that completely tore the roof off the place. They seamlessly blend pop art rock, psychedelic elements, and early punk influences, creating a sound that’s as eclectic as it is electric.
