Adrian Duke Trio - Hibernian Raleigh (Blues/Funk/Jazz)
This local jazz has been nothing short of surprising in their climb up the music ladder. Adrian Duke has assembled a powerhouse trio that blurs the lines of Funk/Jazz & Blues for a sound that is drenched in the style of an upbeat New Orleans Jazz club..... It is simply amazing and has attracted fans far and wide as evidenced by their performance for Queen Elizabeth during her last state visit...
This is a great opportunity to catch a great gig of music on a Thursday... Get there early - as I expect the Hibernian room will be PACKED.... Be sure to check them out on their website below:

The Rockridge Brothers - Berkeley Cafe (Euro Style Bluegrass)
This is certainly an interesting band - a Swedish punk rock band - discovered the Bluegrass music of Appalachian region and set about converting themselves into a world class Bluegrass band. The have most certainly succeeded and now play to packed venues throughout Europe - as well as a good solid following here in the US. Their sound is genuine - with hints of Scotch-Irish folk and lilt thrown in for good measure.... It most certainly piques the interest, esp after hearing about the background of these guys - but trust me, they are VERY good and come out ready to dance, clog, hoe down... whatever suits you....
The Lynda Dawson (of local band Kickin Grass)trio will start things off around 8-8:30 or so and expect these guys to take the stage sometime after 10....
