- Rolling Stone partnered with Sonesta International Hotels to launch the 2026 Musicians on Musicians live tour, debuting at The Clift Royal Sonesta’s Redwood Room in San Francisco.
- Joseph Hudak hosted a live interview with Bay Area musicians Shannon Shaw and Scott Hansen (Tycho) during the event.
- Shannon Shaw said the community’s outpouring after her fiancé’s 2022 fatal car accident inspired her 2024 album “The Moon Is in the Wrong Place.”
- Scott Hansen (Tycho) highlighted his Sacramento electronic scene roots, felt accepted in San Francisco, and recalled meeting his wife at the Redwood Room bar in 2007.
- Eli’s Mile High Club in Oakland runs a weekly blues night on Mondays, which Shaw recommended as a slice of musical history.
- Sonesta Travel Pass members can attend the next Musicians on Musicians event in Denver, with details on sonestaevents.com.
Why it matters: The tour gives Rolling Stone and Sonesta a high‑profile showcase for Bay Area talent, while fans and travel‑pass members gain exclusive live experiences and exposure to historic venues, reinforcing San Francisco’s reputation as a music‑culture hub and expanding the brand’s reach to future stops like Denver.
