For the past 11 years, Oakland-based LoCura has crafted their own unique musical identity: "Califas Mestizo Music," a blend of Latin American and Iberian rhythms such as rumba, cumbia, salsa and flamenco influenced by punk rock, ska, rap, dub, reggae, dancehall with local and global lyrical themes. The band's name ("it cures it") reflects their ethos of making music a remedy, a theme which permeates lyrics such as "la cultura cura la locura (culture cures the madness).”

Javier Navarrette curates shows with various artists from different cultures in the Bay Area, as well as presenting his own global music projects at “Modupue Wednesdays”

You've seen the Fairtrade label, but does it really mean?

Your choice to buy Fairtrade supports:

🌍 Fair wages & working conditions
🌏 Elevated voices for farmers and workers
🌎 Stronger local communities

Find the Fairtrade label on coffee, tea, and chocolate across our stores.

Besides carrying products that have the Fairtrade label we work with companies that are fairly traded, like Equal Exchange. We exclusively use their coffee and chocolate in our cafe here at The Annex.

Daniel’s Staff C***r Pick from The Annex W**e & B**r Department 10/9/26
C***r Manton Blend by Lassen C***r $18.99
Manton, CA

With a striking view of Mt. Lassen, Manton, CA is in many ways the ideal location to grow apples, but commercial apple production in this area all but died out decades ago. But Lassen C***rs found Mitch Shandley who is not only keeping an historic orchard alive, but he also planted some other great c***r apples too! The Manton blend contains Golden Russets, Porter’s Perfection and Hudson’s Golden Gem apples, for bittersharp earthiness, with nutty, tropical, and pear-like aromas.
