Santa Barbara isn’t just pretty beaches — it’s also a Central Coast cultural mecca.

Read on for an introduction to one of this year’s Solstice artists-in-residence as well as Indy critics’ picks of the pop, rock, and jazz, classical music, theater, dance, visual art, and films you won’t want to miss.
