Concert Listings Roundup #309

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:

Bim Prongs & {AN} EeL [CD release!] (Sandy Ewen / Side Eye [Kayla Milmine/mkl32/MJ Wright]) / Array Space 2019-07-07 (Sunday) [FB event]

Once more, there's a huge not-to-be-missed night out at Prairie Drive Park, as Feast in the East returns for another big, free (and family-friendly!) outdoor celebration on Saturday night. But the under-the-radar show to keep an eye on this week is Sunday at Array, as expatriated gabbler + noise-maker Neal Retke (a.k.a {AN} EeL) heads into town to celebrate the release of a duo CD with William Davison (a.k.a. Bim Prongs, among his many other projects). The night also features a set from the always-fascinating prepared guitar hero Sandy Ewen and a newer grouping with Kayla Milmine, mkl32, and MJ Wright.
