This Weekend In Athens

And the pre-AthFest summer quiet officially begins...


FRI: A few notable acts still playing around town while everyone preps for AthFest... For instance, the trio of William Tonks, John Neff, and Jack Logan perform at the Morton as part of Athens 441.

Meanwhile, just down the road, former Athenian Kevn Kinney returns to down with his band the Sun-Tangled Angel Revival to perform at the Melting Point. The show will also feature the debut of the HEAP Project - the new band featuring Bryan Howard of the Sun-Tangled Angel Revival. If you're interested in seeing this show, Kevn'll be on Rock 103.7 starting at 4:30 today and he'll be giving away CD's and tix.

A few other good suggestions around town: there's Lona at Tasty World, the combo of Nightingale News and Sleepy Horses at the Caledonia, and our friends in Thunderchief playing their last show in their current lineup at Nuci's Space.


SAT: Talk about quiet nights... you can go see Push! perform at the Caledonia, and reward them for choosing a smart night to plan a show, or you can check out the bluegrass of the Packway Handle Band at the Georgia Theatre. More on the latter here. Other than that, I'm open to suggestions, y'all.
