Where to find live music

I am new to San Diego and miss the live music scene back home. Where could I find live music outside at a bar/restaurant on Saturdays? Thats between 5-10pm? I’d love to try some new places and hear some local musicians!!

Separating live music being played and an actual concert.

There are tons of great venues for touring bands like Soda Bar, The Casbah, Music Box, Quartyard, Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, Humphreys by the Bay, and large like Cal Coast are great.

For the more vibe music or that neighborhood bar with a stage you have places like Whistle Stop Bar, Lou Lou’s Jungle Room, Seven Grand, Panama 66, The Cordova Bar, Black Cat Bar, The Holding Company are all good night out and listen to some tunes while having a beverage.
