You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.
Gig of the week:
The Weather Station (Myriam Gendron) / The Great Hall 2015-05-14 (Thursday) [more info]
It pains me a little to list this as the gig of the week, 'cause I'll be out of town and will miss it. But you should not! Celebrating the release of new full-length Loyalty, Tamara Lindeman will be playing with a full band. Expect some delicate and nuanced sounds to accentuate Lindeman's beautifully-plainspoken words. Be prepared for some quiet bedazzlement.
