Having been deemed worthy by Orange County’s tastemaking Detroit Bar, Francisco the Man! nabbed the super-coveted Monday night residency for the month of November. With enthusiasm and gusto enough to include an exclamation point as a formal part of the band’s name, it’s nearly a given that you, too, will be just as excited about the group’s mix of eclectic sounds and earthy melodies. Paired with The Sweet Sweet Things, a mod-y, fuzzy pop band from Costa Mesa, this weekly get-down is a sheer cover for a feel-good blowout of sunny rock, be it folk-twinged or ‘60s-stung.
