Slow Hand BBQ – Martinez is a family-owned barbecue restaurant and craft beer spot that doubles as one of the area’s most reliable live music hangs. Acoustic sets and upbeat weekend shows pair with all-wood smoked barbecue and cold drinks, with local bands playing regularly — including outdoor shows in the “Back of the Hand” patio area behind the restaurant. Casual, all-ages, and dance-friendly, it’s a favorite stop for Contra Costa bands.
