FRIDAY

SPIKE SIKES’ AWESOME HOTCAKES

Petaluma’s Riverfront Cafe has kicked off its Music on the Deck season of outdoor shows, each Friday night a show perfectly designed to enjoy dinner by. On Friday, May 14, catch Spike Sikes’ Awesome Hotcakes. Like hotcakes themselves, the music Spike and the band plays goes by many names. Soul. Swing. Rhythm & Blues. Jazz. Jump. It’s a sound that’s classic and simple, but when it’s done right, it hits the spot, and has you grinning from ear to ear. Reservations strongly suggested as space on the deck is limited. www.riverfront.cafe or 347-5147.
