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:
Matthew "Doc" Dunn & Friends [Lightbourn release show!] (James Matthew VII / Dorothea Paas) / The Baby G 2018-12-20 (Thursday) [FB event]
Still plenty going on during this week before xmas, even if it's harder to leave the blanket fort on these darkest days of the year. Even so, it's a no-brainer to head out to The Baby G for the slightly-belated release party for Doc Dunn's solo Lightbourn effort. Rather than singer-songwriter spareness, the album is filled with soulful and funky vibes, like all the best bits of Bob Welch-era Fleetwood Mac compressed together.
