All Summer Long: Live Music at Moonshine Flats and Moonshine Beach

Good Time Design’s two San Diego venues – Moonshine Flats in Downtown and Moonshine Beach in Pacific Beach – are bringing a full summer of live music to the city.

From pop/R&B and California country to surf punk, Y2K throwbacks, and emo revival, the lineup covers serious ground across both venues and runs all the way through late June.

Moonshine Flats

Downtown’s Moonshine Flats is stacking the calendar with a mix of original artists and high-energy cover acts that span country, pop, blues, rock, and everything in between. Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time through the door, this summer’s lineup is a good reason to show up.

Rachel Horter

An independent pop/R&B singer-songwriter with 70,000+ YouTube subscribers and millions of Spotify streams, Rachel brings a soulful, melody-driven sound to a two-night run.
