Today's Picks are:
Wess Floyd / Grace Potter and the Nocturnals / Brandi Shearer / Wess Floyd (Again!) @ Workplay
Admission: $12
Go Time: 6:30 p.m.
First off: The Wess Floyd parts of the show are in the Workplay bar and they are FREE!!!! Did I put enough exclamation points after that? Now you can get your pre-show and post-show buzz on while listening to good music and not just waiting for it and reminiscing over it. Wess is a former Dothan resident, but he's been tearing it up in Nashville for a while now. He peddles a comforting brand of country tinged roots-rock. You buying?
Grace Porter's got a rock n' roll soul, and it shines through. With the help of her band, The Nocturnals, she's out to prove that Vermont isn't just about jam. She's played with Taj Mahal, rocked out at Bonnaroo, and she's got a terrific rock scream. Also, she plays a Hammond B3. What more do you want, people!
An honest to goodness Oregon farm girl, Brandi Shearer escaped from her one-room schoolhouse of a past and into the bohemian embrace of Europe, where she discovered Billy Holiday and hair-care. Now she's amended her ex-pat ways and returned to the fold. She brings with her a sense of mystique, a sultry voice, and solid song-writing chops. Come get you some.
Honorable Mention: George Strait / Little Big Town @ BJCC
