Praised by Music Mayhem Magazine for her “unique sound, authentic artistry, and undeniably catchy songs,” rising country-music sensation Allie Colleen plays a headlining concert at East Moline venue The Rust Belt on August 20, arriving a mere four months after the release of her critically acclaimed debut album Stones.

With the night's unforgettable songs including “Sympathy for the Devil,” “Midnight Rambler,” “You Can't Always Get What You Want,” and a host of classics from iconic albums Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed, Quad City Bank & Trust and the Quad City Symphony Orchestra, on August 21, present LeClaire Park's latest Riverfront Pops spectacle The Music of the Rolling Stones: Mick Jagger & Keith Richards, 1969, a rockin' park party boasting guest artist, lead singer, and international Mick Jagger tribute artist Mick Adams.

Appearing in the long-awaited grand re-opening show at Maquoketa's Codfish Hollow Barn, folk- and alternative-rock icon Ani DiFranco, on August 19, headlines the first Barn concert in more than a year, the artist's most recent album Revolutionary Love described by The New Yorker as boasting “robust melodies, padded with streaks of soul and jazz, that represent some of DiFranco's fullest productions yet.”

The Quad Cities' doom-metal/post-grunge duo Murnau seems to be getting back on the horse once again. Not that they ever necessarily fell off the horse, but, you know, society as a whole pretty much fell off our collective horse – and that fall was much more pronounced for musicians who were used to jamming at top volume in their pummeling guitar + drums sludge metal project. For now, it doesn’t seem like Murnau have announced any major album project, but they have individual tracks trickling out of the faucet here and there to keep us satiated.
