Don't Miss Cool, Quirky Rubblebucket At Bear Creek Saturday

This is a video from Rubblebucket, a band I was just introduced to and will now most definitely go check out live at Bear Creek Music and Art Festival this weekend at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Fl. They play at noon on Saturday at the ampitheatre, so get your butts up and check 'em out!

They're a Brooklyn-based 8-piece (sometimes more) led by Kalmia Traver (lead vocals, sax) and Alex Toth (trumpet, vocals, hyper-kinetics). The band released their new Triangular Daisies EP on Oct. 19th. The band won last year's Boston Music Award for Live Act of the Year.

Our friends at Jambase write: “Their sound sits along the same horizon line as Yeasayer and Akron/Family… one feels as if they're body surfing the edge of what's possible in melodic yet actively experimental rock.”

Check out Rubblebucket's unusual cover of The Beatles' "Michelle."

This is what I love about Bear Creek promoters Paul Levine and Lyle Williams, they are always finding tasty musical surprises for us!

Tornado River Tomorrow at The Engine Room in Tally!

festgrrl unfortunately had the flu last week, and was delusional with fever. She listed the wrong Tuesday for this post about Tornado Rider at the Engine Room! It's tomorrow. Get yer dancin' pants on and bring your protective headgear, 'cause this show's gonna rage. Tally bluegrass band Two Foot Level opens, doors open at 9, and it's $10 cover.

If You Aren't Getting Ready for Bear Creek, You Should Be!

Tornado Rider Tonight!!!

Punkgrass pioneers Tornado Rider hit the Engine Room tonight in Tallahassee.

You never know quite what will happen at a Tornado Rider show (high-voltage acrobatics, hilarious theatrics) but you can be sure that you've never seen anything like it.

Local bluegrass band Two Foot Level opens. Doors open at 9 and it's a bargain at $10. I can say with complete confidence that this show's gonna rage.

Thank You Beth and Randy Judy

J Grey and Mofro Hit Tallahassee's Engine Room Tonight

JJ Grey and Mofro bring their soulful bad selves to The Engine Room tonight in Tallahassee. He and his band Mofro are touring for their great new release, Georgia Warhorse. This record explores a little more of JJ's soul crooning than the gritty swamp funk of past records, and it is beautifully put together. Put this disc on your Christmas list.

Tickets for tonight's show are $25 at the door. Northern Lights and Joathan Tyler join JJ and Mofro.
