Concert Listings Roundup #299

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.


Gigs of the week:

All-Set! Editions Double Release Celebration (feat. The Mike Smith Company / Pete Johnston's Stranger Still) / The Tranzac (Southern Cross Lounge) 2019-04-27 (Saturday) [FB event]

Wire Circus [album release!] (Chris Pruden / Laura Swankey) / Array Space 2019-04-27 (Saturday) [FB event]

Saturday night offers a pair of album release gigs that are totally worth your time. Busy as a support player in innumerable projects, Patrick O'Reilly's Wire Circus releases its long-awaited second album (with a couple fab solo sets starting the evening off) while Mike Smith (also busy as a support player in innumerable projects) will be trading off songs with Pete Johnston's Stranger Still project as both celebrate two more beautifully-designed albums from the All-Set! label.
