It remains to be seen if indoor and outdoor concerts in San Diego and throughout California will be able to resume without any restrictions on June 15, contingent on the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations at the time and the amount of available vaccines.
Nevertheless, several San Diego concert presenters announced Monday that they are gearing up for renewed activity.
Humphreys Concerts by the Bay confirmed its first booking of 2021 a pair of Aug. 17 and 18 standing-room-only shows by the Philadelphia folk-rock band Mt. Joy and the bluegrass-fueled Minnesota group Trampled By Turtles. Tickets go on sale this week for the concerts at the 1,450-capacity Shelter Island venue, whose 40th anniversary last year was pushed back to 2021 because of the pandemic.

Guitarist Rob Shinno, 62, is the leader of the San Diego alternative-rock band Hemisphere, which he founded in 1996. Hemisphere’s newest album, “American Dreams,” was released in October.hemisphereband.com
Hemisphere’s last gig, with a trimmed-down lineup, was a fundraiser for Pete Buttigieg, America’s first LGBTQ+ presidential candidate, on Feb 20, 2020. I was very excited about the event, having had the pleasure to meet Pete in person at his only campaign stop in San Diego earlier in the year. Pete’s local committee folks, led by longtime San Diego political advocate George Biagi, helped to officially set up the event I hosted, and we proceeded to invite folks to attend.
