Regional Picks for Week of 7/18 - 7/24

A few shows that are happening outside of our area might be worth a road trip:

Oxford and Ole Miss will host the Blues & BBQ Festival on 7/18-20. Lots of artists and food will be on hand.

If the jam-band scene is your thing, you're probably heading over to Birmingham/Pelham at the Oak Mountain Ampitheatre for Widespread Panic as they bring two shows on 7/19-20.

Birmingham's WorkPlay will also host The Psychedelic Furs on 7/22.

Regional Picks for Week of 8/1 - 8/7

By tommyburton

Go in any direction this weekend and you're likely to find some live music to get you in the back-to-school spirits.

There are a couple of festivals worth mentioning. The first is Secret Stages in downtown Birmingham. This is the festival's third year and it describes itself as a "music discovery festival." It sounds like a mini SXSW and could be making a mark as a closer alternative to that festival. The festival lasts from 8/2-8/3.

The other festival is at the Old U.S. Mint in New Orleans. It's the Satchmo Summerfest and will feature New Orleans legend Allen Toussaint. This festival is also 8/2-8/3.

The Goo Goo Dolls and matchbox twenty will rock Oak Mountain Ampitheatre in Pelham, AL on 8/2.

Regional favorite Cowboy Mouth plays the IP Casino in Biloxi on 8/2.

The House of Blues in New Orleans will feature The Plain White T's on 8/1 and Kevin Costner & Modern West on 8/3.

Safe traveling, TB

If you're not attending the 1st Jackson Rhythm & Blues Festival this weekend, then here are a few options for you road warriors this week:

It's Elvis Week in Memphis, but if The King ain't your thing, then head over to Tunica and see Chicago at Bluesville at the Horseshoe Casino on 8/16. Candlebox will rock the New Daisy Theatre on Beale St. on 8/20.

If you head east due Birmingham, you might check out Jars of Clay at the WorkPlay Theatre on 8/15. Grammy-nominated Jamey Johnson plays Iron City Live on 8/16. American Idol favorite Kellie Pickler will perform at Tin Roof BBQ on 8/20.

Get your groove on in New Orleans on 8/17 with Maze feat. Frankie Beverly w/The Isley Brothers & Kem at Lakefront Arena.

Clint Black plays the IP Casino in Biloxi on 8/17.

But you really should stay in town this weekend and head over to the Ag Museum for the R&B festival...
