This week's calendar expands beyond mere concerts to include film and dance.
Irkutsk, Edge of Arbor, I Am the Navigator, Chop Chop, The Betties and a women-filled Clawfoot House show lead this week's lady music calendar.
Six female songwriters from Omaha and one from New Jersey shared their music and talked about their experiences at a recent PS Collective roundtable. Listen to a podcast of the event here.
If you liked StereoFidelics, Cowboy Indian Bear or Fierce Bad Rabbit the last times they came through the state, then you're in luck: They're all converging on Lincoln and/or Omaha this weekend.
A reunion! A lady songwriter round table! Deerpeople! The Betties' CD release show! (It's going to be a good week.)
Tour kick-offs? CD release shows? Yes please!
This week more than makes up for the dearth of music-by-women last week. Holy live music, Bat(wo)man!
This week's calendar is smaller, but the music is as great as ever.
