Happy Weekend! It’s a quick and dirty update today as I have hundreds of people outisde of the record store waiting for me as it’s Record Store Day. Hope to see you either at the store or at a show!
Celebrate 35 years of Cherry Pie with Warrant at The Astro on Friday night! Also, get smooth up in ya with Bullet Boys. The Bullet Boys have been remastering some of their deep catalog, so maybe you will get some deep cuts tonight? You will get the hits for sure.
Chicago singer-songwriter Che Arthur will be at The Sydney on Sunday Kind of an underground figure from a couple decades back. Interesting. Che is touring on the new album For That Which Now Lies Fallow.
Here is the bio for PHRYME who is playng at Reverb Lounge tonight. This show is SOLD OUT- Cut from the same cloth as the Omaha music scene that birthed them in 1997, PRHYME are a raw, alt-rock band forged in friendship. After a decade-long hiatus, the original trio of Mike Otepka, Dan Peters, and Zak Olsen reignited the fire in 2023, adding Joe Pietro and Scott Irvine to the fold. Now, with a sound honed by years of experience and a renewed sense of purpose, PRHYME are back to deliver a sonic assault that’s as explosive as it is infectious.
Travis Sing returns to Omaha, a place he made home for many years, before heading back to Oklahoma where he now resides. Performing under the name Township & Range, Sing’s music is a blend of Americana and country and he has a deep respect for that music and it’s heritage. He will be peforming with Matt Whipkey and Mike Friedman who he ran with during his time in town. This show happens at Revreb Lounge on Sunday.
His name is Kidd G, and he is country artist amassing hundreds of millions of streams with songs like “Dirt Road”, “Red Clay” and “Teenage Dream”. You can hear these are more when he appears at Barnato on Sunday.
Other happenings on Saturday include Mike Semrad and the Riverhawks at the Zoo Bar, football star and country singer Cannan Cox is at Barnato, The Damones bring the new wave of the 80’s to Bourbon Theater and Carol Montag at Folk House has been cancelled. Lemon Fresh Day performs at the grand opening of The B-Side in Council Bluffs, and a cool show with Black Ends, Trees With Eyes, Amphibaphobia, Ivory Claws happens at The Sydney. The Clincher will bring the rock to Down Under Lounge
