Live music in Salinas, CA

Celebrate the sounds of blues with a concert in the Sunday Blues Concert Series at Laguna Grand Park.

Jagged Little Pill brings Alanis Morissette’s landmark music to the stage in a high-energy musical with a book by Academy Award winner Diablo Cody. Set within a polished suburban household, the story follows the Healy family as hidden struggles surface, from addiction and identity to trauma and the longing for connection. As the facade begins to crack, each person faces hard truths and takes steps toward healing. The production pairs rock-concert intensity with intimate storytelling and delivers charged renditions of Morissette favorites that resonated with a generation. Celebrated with both Tony and Grammy honors, it underscores resilience, compassion, and the strength of community. Recommended for adults because of strong language and mature themes.
