Mobile has been teaming with awesome music lately. The bar right next to my house Callaghans Irish Social Club is one of the best little bars in the nation. It gets big name bands to play in their small venue. It's an awesome intimate show with the smallest of crowds.
First up. Greensky Bluegrass. They are the shit. enough said. one of the best shows ive seen. just about 50 to 75 people in attendance. Felt like a private show.

This last saturday a absolutely awesome band played at Alabama Music Box. Two members from the band "Of Montreal" created their own new band. And if you like Of Montreal you will love them. Their name is "Yip Deceiver". It's just 3 dudes playing awesome 80's electro rock music ala MGMT. I really have a major boner for this band. super catchy awesome shit.
get some more in your life:
and one more:
also within the next 4 weeks we have Matisyahu and Mute Math coming to town. We are having a solid run. I am jealous of Bham though because you all have "Railroad Earth" coming to play sometime within the next month or two. Im not sure when but yall need to look it up and make sure you are there because they are one of the best. Im gonna catch them in New Orleans in October but may also make the drive to Bham to see them twice. Heres a good one if you havent heard of them:

and Railroad Earth by Railroad Earth
Sounds like you've found a pretty solid bar to go to. Railroad Earth does come through bham quite a bit, but I've yet to go see them. Don't miss Mute Math, they are crazy and they give it their all until the very last note. Greensky Bluegrass has also come through birmingham but I didn't go because I had already gone to one concert that week. Anywho...good stuff.
ReplyDeleteBlack Joe Lewis, Honey Swamp and Mutemath are all playing the DeLuna Fest in Pensacola
ReplyDeleteWe are so on top of music it hurts. We should start a blog.
ReplyDeleteYeah DeLuna Fest looks great......the only problem is it cost about just as much as Hangout Fest. which is retarded. They did just add the Shins to the lineup though......which is pretty awesome
