Music Picks for Wednesday, July 28

Zach Deputy w/ Big Daddy Love - Pourhouse (reggae/roots/bluegrass)
To say that you can Zach's music fits neatly into a certain genre or types of genres is not doing his music justice. He has the unique ability to blend elements of reggae, funk, roots and rock all together to create a pretty fun sound that will get you grooving and eventually, dancing... His music is fun, and it is very good. I liken his sound to a mashup of The Wailers, Galactic and maybe the Dynamites..... It is a great sound and certainly not something to be missed "Tubesteak Remix" says it all......
Big Daddy Love out of Asheville opens the evening and they represent a sharp contrast to Zach. Their Roots/Bluegrass style of music most certainly has an Asheville slant to it and it works - its great, clear and easy to listen to and dance if it strikes your fancy... These guys are really good and it's certainly worth getting over a little early to catch their entire set.
As an added benefit, Lonerider brewing is doing a beer tasting at 8pm. The opening band will start around 9....

www.myspace.com/bigdaddyloveband - check out "River Runs" - it's powerful!

Streetlight Manifesto - Lincoln Theatre (Punk/Ska)
The evening just got cranked up a few notches with this band. These guys are in the midst of a North American/European tour and certainly seem to be going place. This band represents a type of music that is not as popular as it once was - but it's great stuff and certainly worth a listen. I liken this band to a cross between the Pietasters and Flogging Molly. It will certainly get the crowd jacked up and ready to get rocking and rolling.... I wish I could be two places at one time - but it's simply not possible.... I highly reccomend this show - as it's great stuff - and who knows - maybe I'll try to make both.... The Wonder Years will take the stage around 8-8:30 - so this is a relatively early show...
