Shaping up to be another great weekend of music in Fresno even if there's a hole in the schedule (no Club Retro this weekend?). Saturday looks particularly awesome with several good choices.
FRIDAY
KUPPAJOES: Seems to be a night of solo acoustic goodness with Kyle Monroe (Hazel and Vine), Joey Vinnucci (From Indian Lakes) and Jeffrey Conway. Plus Seattle's Brier Rose. [7:00 $6]
ARTE AMERICAS: The museum continues its summer series of concerts and tonight's offering is the popular Visalia Latin group: Mezcal. [8:00 $10]
CYC: Punktastic night with Fresno's Crucial Point, The 32s, Born Loser, plus DC01 (Davis) and Wages Of Fear (Ventura). [7:00 $6]AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: So we know that Glen Delpit will be doing his usual Friday evening thing at Audie's (that's free and goes from 5:30 to 8). And we THINK national touring country punk act from Cincinnati, 500 Miles To Memphis, will be there later... pretty sure. Bruce Parton may be there too. [9:30 $10]
NIHON GALLERY: Fresnan approved, Trumpet Solo, playing their indie garage metal in a gallery environment. Sweeet! [7:00 $?]
STARLINE: Bakersfield's, Adema, is back and Fresno tonight, but don't forget that it's also a CD release party for Fresno's, Say Swear:
THE CAPTIVE: Hit some NAILS, Fell To Low, Break Through It All and Grow [7:00 $7]
SATURDAY
TOKYO GARDEN: Rademacher's, Malcolm Sosa, going solo for the night and playing with Thomas Medrano, plus an interesting looking band from Tuscon called Holly Rolling Empire. [9:00 $3]
STARLINE: All ages are welcome to see a load of quality Fresno/Madera rock and metal with Grooveyard, Senerza, Six Ounce Gloves and Insect. [9:00 $6]AUDIE'S OLYMPIC: Alright, it's time to see (or hear) if this Brooklyn shoegaze band, A Place To Bury Strangers, is as loud as folks say. More info here. Locals, The Quiet Americans, and Chicago's Light Pollution, join:
BABYLON: A EP release party for 12 Gauge Serenade. Mike Oz has a free download to get a taste of 12 Gauge. Show info:
CYC: Los Angeles punks, Fedup and more:
So that's what we think looks awesome this weekend (or at least what we could find). If you know of something else or want to talk about what's listed, maybe come back and leave a review, please be cool and leave a comment. To make sure your band is listed next time, always email: [email protected]
Enjoy Fresno this weekend!
