🕺🏻'90s Hip-Hop + Local Indie

It is the hottest week of the year, school is back in session and Labor Day weekend is within sight. But right now, it’s time to make some weekend plans. Check out our highlights below and click the artist’s name to hear their music!

1. Juvenile - are you ready to back that thang up this weekend? You’re in luck, as this ‘90s hip-hop artist (with a great Tiny Desk Concert) will be at White Oak Music Hall this Friday at 7:00pm.

2. Fern & Rocket - this Houston indie band (2023 album Stick it Where it Helps is worth checking out) will be playing on Sunday afternoon at Dan Electro’s.

3. Mohama Saz - we always love highlighting bands that visit us from afar, and this psych band from Madrid (with several global influences mixed in) fits the bill. They’ll be playing at Dan Electro’s on Sunday evening.
