Reggae Rock News: San Francisco Press Release – “Stay Golden” 2023 Fall Tour Kicks Off September 12, 2023 Hitting 10+ Cities Up the coast of California and around the state of Florida!
San Francisco based reggae band, Lot 49 has teamed up with Joey Calderaio for a different take on a summer anthem with their new song “San Francisco Summer.” If you’ve ever spent time in the city by the Bay, you have probably noticed that the weather is far from the stereotypical sunshine depicted in Hollywood. In fact, author Mark Twain was famously misquoted, saying “the coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.”
Lot 49 frontman, Ryan Viera, took that idea and packaged it into an upbeat reggae-pop anthem, equating the ever-so absent San Francisco summer weather, to a love interest who seems to only be interested in coming around when the fog departs, and the city heats up, typically in the fall.
Teaming up with Joey seemed like a perfect fit, as the two are teaming up for a bi-costal tour in the fall, which you can read about below. The song has everything you’d want in a summer jam: catchy melodies, hard hitting bass, and that twist of reggae flavor in a pop-inspired beat that Lot 49 is becoming known for.
San Francisco Summer featuring Joey Calderaio is streaming everywhere now. Go check it out wherever you get your music fix.

ABOUT LOT 49 AND JOEY CALDERAIO
Lot 49:
Lot 49 is a reggae-inspired indie pop band hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area. Their genre draws on influences from Cali Reggae pioneers like Iration, Rebelution, and Dirty Heads, as well as more pop-driven artists under the reggae umbrella such as Katastro, and The Holdup. But Lot 49 doesn’t easily fit into a box or category. Their music has steadily brought a unique and fresh perspective to the table.
Since forming in 2018, they have released a full-length album, as well as numerous singles, and have seen their stream numbers steadily increase, reaching thousands of Spotify listeners every month.
They have made fast progress in the local scene, opening for established artists such as HIRIE, Kash’d Out, Groundation, Tomorrows Bad Seeds, and many more, as well as making an appearance at the Dry Diggings Music Festival in 2022.
Having played at venues such as The Catalyst (Santa Cruz), Cornerstone (Berkeley), the DNA Lounge (San Francisco), as well Felton Music Hall, not to mention countless other local venues throughout California, Lot 49 is eager to continue pushing the envelope and expand on an already solid foundation.

Joey Calderaio:
South Florida based musician Joey Calderaio continues his rise to the top of the American Reggae scene with an outstanding assortment of releases, collaborations, and live performances. Recently hitting 1.3 million Spotify streams and another 200k+ across all platforms in a near decade of his music career, Joey has become a household name when it comes to the genre by fusing rock, reggae, pop, and many other musical influences to his extensive catalog. He has worked with some of the best and fellow rising artists in the reggae-rock scene like his latest 2022 singles Foolish Games ft. Nathan Aurora (of Iya Terra), Wave of Life ft. Howi Spangler (of Ballyhoo!), and Paradise ft. Sierra Lane. He’s also worked with notable musicians like Ted Bowne (of Passafire), Mihali (of Twiddle), Karim Israel (of Arise Roots ), and Dubbest; all who’ve contributed to Joey’s success.
Not only has Joey’s rise been attributed to his many collaborations, but also due to his creative musical fascinations in song-writing, production, live-looping capabilities, and social media presence. He re-released his freshman album Moving Mountains (Deluxe Edition) in December 2021 and has a wide collection of covers, dub mixes, and acoustic renderings of his many tracks. Joey is also well-known for creating one-man band style videos, playing multiple instruments and singing covers of fan-favorite jams. This series helped cultivate a substantial and loyal following by sharing those videos on Instagram, YouTube, and his Facebook group “Joey’s Bag of Donuts.” It’s also worth noting that he’s landed a powerful backing of talented South Florida musicians to perform alongside him on tours, festivals, and local shows. His band has performed nationally at many different festivals and concerts including: Sunfest 2022 (mainstage), Reggae Rise Up FL 2021, Mountain High Vibes Festival, Orange Bowl VIP Party, Reggae 4 Cure (opening act for Ky-Mani Marley), and Summer Daze Concert Series (opening act for Tribal Seeds, The Expanders, and Badfish).
If you visit his YouTube Channel you’ll notice the extensive list of his cover songs, live performances, and beautifully-edited lyric videos. You can catch Joey performing multiple shows weekly all over Florida. His new 15-track album ‘Chasing Constellations’ just released in November 2022. Catch him at a show near you!
