Bottom of the Hill is pleased to announce that our final revolution this year will be captured by the filmmakers behind the award winning 2021 documentary VINYL NATION (www.vinylnationfilm.com.) San Francisco-based Kevin Smokler and Albuquerque-based Christopher Boone and their crew will be shooting throughout the year at the club and beyond with plans to turn the story of Bottom of the Hill into a feature length documentary film.

Kevin and Chris would love to hear from you and your stories and memories associated with Bottom of the Hill's magnificent 35 year history. Email them at [email protected] to get in touch.

January 6, never forget

This is very sad news. If you have never been to this amazing music venue, please come to our show Friday, January 23! Support not only The DisRespectors, but this amazing pillar of the San Francisco musical community while you can 

Bottom of the Hill is in its final revolution!

We make this announcement with great difficulty. Bottom of the Hill’s final year will be 2026, and our last day will be next New Year’s Eve. This legendary business will have lived to the ripe old age of 35, a long stretch in San Francisco for an independent rock ‘n’ roll venue of our size. It has been a wonderful trip, and we are full of stories and memories. We have hosted tens of thousands of musical artists and have been a community partner as well, holding numerous benefits, school recitals, weddings, birthdays, and memorials. Let’s have one more solid year of memories together and bid a fond farewell to a legendary venue.

We will curate one more year of great shows, enticing bands that make up our history to come back for one final play on our stage. Let’s celebrate, for one more spin, how far we came, how many bands we hosted, how many amazing people we worked with. We want to thank the bands, their agents, managers, and roadies, for always bringing the most exciting shows to our intimate room, with the analog board at the helm. And most especially, we wish to thank our loyal customers who kept us in business for this long and told us, in so many ways, that we were doing things right.

As the owners of Bottom of the Hill, we (Ramona Downey, Kathleen Owen, and Lynn Schwarz), are three women in different phases of our lives (and a sad RIP to Tim Benetti, our beloved fourth, whom we recently lost). Part of what has made our partnership so functional and wonderful are the perspectives of three strong women from different generations and backgrounds. We come together on so many issues but also bring our own unique life experiences to this business. Together we have nurtured Bottom of the Hill over the decades—it’s our child. We include in our family the incredible staff who are the ones who keep our business on the map. Several of our team have been with us for well over a decade and some the whole time, making this decision to shutter extra difficult.

We will miss you all so much after this one last star-studded year. 2026 is our big victory lap! Please come celebrate with us. Not with a whimper, but a bang!

Lynn (with the blessing and input of Kathleen and Ramona)
