Nola Live Music Letter

I’ve got a couple of tix to give away for Sunday’s Tour de Fat party with Corey Harper and Colin Lake down at the Joy and you can enter for a chance to win here.

It’s another fairly slow week, but JEFF The Brotherhood tomorrow night at Gasa should be a rockin’ midweek show and there were a number of big announcements for fall shows last week: Arcade Fire, The Shins, Thundercat, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard and Vagabon all got added to the fall docket recently.

I’m working on a more nationally-focused concept similar to this, delivered quarterly. If you’d like to sign up for that, you can do so here: http://eepurl.com/cO0qpv

Check out my summer “Humid Ciddity” playlist (music for floating in pools) here and a refreshed concert calendar below.For a more comprehensive local listing of concerts, check out WWOZ’s Livewire. Have a great week.
