Mike Sherm Live

Bay Area rapper Mike Sherm brings his melodic, street-rooted sound to El Rey, one of the more reliable mid-size rooms on Central for catching hip-hop acts before they price out of it. The 13-and-over door policy is worth flagging if you’re bringing younger fans, and El Rey’s layout means the floor gets close fast when a show has momentum. Grab tickets in advance; this room sells tighter than people expect.
