We see you appreciate a good vintage. But there comes a time to try something new. Click here to head over to the redesigned Louisville.com. It's where you'll find all of our latest work. And plenty of the good ol' stuff, too, looking better than ever.
After a long week of free shows all across the city, things in the live music scene are slowing down a bit, but not too much. There’s still a ton of cool happenings to get down to this week!
According to Urban Dictionary, the definition for Carrie Underwood is as follows, “(verb) to completely destroy someone's vehicle, especially by means of a baseball bat or key.” All jokes and Louisville Sluggers aside, I’m a little jelly I didn’t get tickets. I’m not a country pop fan, but I bet the show will be a great time, especially with a large overpriced beer and awesome stage tricks.
These guys are “playing music the way it should have been played all along,” or so they claim. Squeeze-Bot is comprised of an accordion, tuba, banjo, and toy drums. On Friday night they’re hosting a prom so that you can relive or redo your favorite high school dance.
Billy Goat Strut Revue is a blast from the past. I’ve seen the “antique jazz” group in the bourbon lodge at Forecastle and at Louisville Magazine’s Swig. They’re amazing to watch and dance too.
Former Foxygen drummer, Diana Coffee, aka Shaun Fleming will play his glam pop tunes Saturday night. He’s got a David Bowie meets Vampire Weekend vibe.
Lexington musician, James Friley, and his band, Idiot Glee, have been gaining some attention with their new album. The songs are soft with a subtle pop. It’s nothing to head bang too, more of a slow groove to move your head too.
