It's fuckin nice out for once. Forget about your work, relax, and come to some of the chilllll shows happening this fine weekend.


WesFest

Foss Hill // Friday 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Facebook Event

Bloomsbury

Jace, of Cicero Presley fame, is teaming up with Emma, of Minges name. If all goes according to the Facebook event, you will be treated to some Andalusian classical music. If not, who knows.

Johnnie Gilmore

You may know him for his electric-bass stylings. And that’s exactly what he’ll be doing on Foss this Friday. Look forward to some Wooten-like virtuosity on the bass.

Baby Jeremy

The first of TWO gigs that the young, fledgling band will be playing this weekend. I have it on good authority that this is the one they will be “less drunk for.”


Penthouse Boys // Bonanza // The Draculas // Declan

Music House // Friday 9:00

Facebook Event  [dm us for invite??]

Penthouse Boys

‘80s NYC loft vibes. Bring your umbrellas, folks.

Bonanza

"Simultaneously dreamy & screamy poetic lyricism combined with multi-faced funk. The sun is shining upon you, waves lapping at your toes / you're swimming against the current and aren't quite sure what just grabbed your ankle."

The Draculas

They’ve got a sound some have described as,,, “Boom”

Declan

Declan is a real pal. He is the nicest guy you will ever meet and, as anyone who went to his intimate OutHouse show earlier this semester can tell you, he’s got an unparalleled charm with a guitar in his hands. Look forward to hearing some delightful acoustic tunes.


Jason Chu // Son of Paper

X House // Friday 9:00

Facebook Event

Jason Chu

Based in LA, hip-hop artist/poet/activist jason chu is on a mission to speak hope, healing, and justice in a broken world. He tells stories about friends and families wrestling with fear and joy, greed and hope, hurt and healing.

Son of Paper

SOP's goal is to be a role model and inspire young Asian-Americans to explore the arts & music. His new album "Fuzzy Orbit EP" is trying to expand the definition of Asian-America by reclaiming stigmatized words & celebrate family.
