...

Yes, there are other great shows happening around the city with bands that are super talented at playing their intsruments and singing but if you want to be a part of an evening that will be off the charts for these specific reasons…

1. Davidson Hart Kingsbery
2. The Grizzled Mighty
3. My Goodness
4. The Maldives
5. Free Money**

…then I suggest getting your tickets and getting them fast. It’s on good authority that all Music, Arts, and VIP wristbands are now sold out with single tickets to shows and arts events, and Culture Club passes being the only way to experience this awesomeness. Go here to buy tickets.

In other really exciting music news: The Maldives have just released their second LP, Muscle For The Wing, and they also have their very first music video to accompany the superbly written, sung, played, heartstring plucking song, ‘Blood on the Highway’. Go here to check out The Maldives. Do it.
