Just say yes to the War on Drugs in San Francisco – East Bay Times

Its pretty much like clockwork for the War on Drug.

These Philly rockers release a new record and then, a few months later, it winds up on multiple year-end best-of lists.

Thats what happens when you keep putting out such awesome efforts as 2014s Lost in the Dream and 2017s A Deeper Understanding.

The trend definitely continued with last years I Dont Live Here Anymore, which ended up being included on the best-of-2021 lists by such publications as Paste, Spin, the Guardian and, yes, even this newspaper.

Chalk it up to the genius of frontman Adam Granduciel, who manages to construct exciting new works that somehow have the feel of a great lost classic-rock album. Plus, hes one of the top guitar heroes of his generation, painting notes that seem to draw from the palettes of such all-time greats as Mark Knopfler, Mike Campbell and Phil Manzanera.

Expect a fantastic night of music when the War on Drugs performs Feb. 25 at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco. Show time is 8 p.m. and tickets are $46, apeconcerts.com.
