Halloween Treats and Stuffed Animals, Dia de Los Muertos and Wonderbread 5

Plenty of holiday events this week in Mill Valley. Here is your 5 Patch Picks for the week ahead.

Sweetwater Music Hall 19 Corte Madera Ave. Mill Valley

It’s a goat chewing on a can, it’s a cat scratching at your door, it’s foot stompin’ music that makes you want to eat a biscuit. Melodies you wake up humming in the morning, that stick to your bones like peach cobbler. It’s new-timey, post-retro, pre-apocolyptic, southern Appalachian, gypsy porch swing. It’s Jonathan Warren and the Billy Goats. s a goat chewing on a can, it’s a cat scratching at your door, it’s foot stompin’ music that makes you want to eat a biscuit.
