The Sena Ehrhardt Band *

Rascals Live

Friday, June 13, 7:30 p.m.

 

This year, Father's Day lands on Sunday, June 15. And two days prior, when Minnesota-based singer/songwriter Sena Ehrhardt performs her concert at Rascals Live, she'll actually share the stage with her own dad Ed Ehrhardt, who's the guitarist for his daughter's blues ensemble the Sena Ehrhardt Band. In other words, this Father's Day, Sena will be able to give her pop the one gift all parents most want from their children: a paycheck.

High on Fire

Music

High on Fire

Rock Island Brewing Company

Thursday, May 29, 8 p.m.

 

On May 29, the Rock Island Brewing Company hosts an evening with musicians who, according to the UK's The Guardian, "have been blowing amps and minds for more than a decade." AllMusic.com declared that their music "rolls like sinister thunder across the landscape." And SputnikMusic.com called their most recent album "a ferocious and captivating listen that twists and turns through the deepest, darkest depths while pushing forward into new sonic territory."

Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for ... the Osmonds!

Whoops. I mean High on Fire. I keep getting those groups confused.

Mississippi Valley Blues Festival

LeClaire Park

Thursday, July 3, through Saturday, July 5

 

It makes perfect sense that the very first musicians to play 2014's Mississippi Valley Blues Festival in LeClaire Park - which begins at 5 p.m. on July 3 - are the members of the Johnny Kilowatt Band, because this year's lineup of artists is downright electric! (Okay, granted, that's a terrible joke, but if you've been reading me for a while now, you know they can get way worse.)
