It's Orville Peck Day, No Longer Sold Out! Two Omaha Festivals Today and Much, Much More
Saturday Night Live Music Lineup
In The Market for Blues, a one day festival that is Omaha’s main blues festival, will happen today. The festival will feature twelve hours of music on twelve stages and thirty bands and artists. Some of the artists featured include blues revivalist Kat Riggins, whom some have called the spiritual daughter of Koko Taylor. Blues rocker Nick Schnebelen and his band, as well as our own Hector Anchodo, will also top the list of artists. The venues are Harney Street Tavern - Dubliner Pub - T. Henery's - Havana Garage - Mouth of the South - Jewell on Capitol - Beer Can Alley - Annie's Irish Pub - Gene Leahy Mall at The Riverfront - Krush Ultra Lounge - Moxy - Holland Center Music Club, and you will be able to walk around to all of these at your own pace on Saturday, August 3rd. You can find the schedule HERE
Happy Orville Peck Day! I am pumped. You can also get excited now as the show has been SOLD OUT for awhile, but the show was also at The Admiral. Because of the storm, the show is now at The Astro (inside), which means more tickets have been made available. Peck just released his new album yesterday, so today is practically a release party for him. I saw him at Red Rocks on his first album, and it is quite show. I am also excited to see Jaymie Wyatt live for the second time this year, and I think the third time in a year. She is one of my favorites. This is going to be an incredible night.
North Omaha Music and Arts starts today and continues tomorrow. This will be headlined by Eric Darius, a saxophonist from New Jersey who has been putting out albums on Blue Note, Higher Octave, Narada, and more for the last 25 years. Also on the lineup is the return of The Marcus Lewis Big Band to Omaha, Malik Work, an actor and emcee from New York City, Chad Stoner, The Toast, Marcey Yates, Alexis Arai, Daryl Jr., Dana Murray, Big Wade and Black Swan Theory, and more. This is a free event.
Other happenings tonight included When We Were Nu at The Waiting Room. This will feature Defnotes (Deftones tribute band), No Shelter (Rage Against The Machine tribute band), and Auslander (Rammstein tribute band). Old school Kansas City post-hardcore band Shiner plays at Reverb Lounge with Violenteer and Healer.
Area band Funk Trek returns to The Bourbon Theater in Lincoln with Beyond Bananas and Swaul Pope. Global superstar Peso Pluma is at CHI Health Center Omaha this evening, and the Music at Miller Park series continues the free events with Kathy Tyree and Ananias Montague.
Razor Wire Productions has a great lineup with Trees With Eyes, Disrepair, Hand Painted Police Car, and Amhibaphobia. Wrinkles in Time, an adult marching band, will have a fundraiser at O’Leavers tonight with Sgt. Leisure and BareBear. Over at B. Bar is a guaranteed good time with Mike Semrad and the River Hawks.
