In this issue, we’ll take you on a tour of iconic venues in Arcata — bars, clubs and theaters — where you can hear everything from reggae to punk to bluegrass on any given night. In Perfect Trips, you’ll find luthiers making guitars and banjos that are works of art, grab a bite at Taj Mahal’s favorite local Creole spot and the best places to catch buskers during monthly arts nights. And while we can’t promise you any whale songs, there are a few scenic spots to look for migrating grays, humpbacks and orcas. Even if you haven’t got a plan, you’ll find a good time here in Humboldt. Just follow the music.
