At DIT, we are generally working to limit competing shows on the same night, but these things do happen-and then we are forced to choose. We’re here to help make that an informed decision.

At the Globe there will be a 21+ show of the folk and country variety with Jon Timm, an upper-Michigan native turned Nashvillian, and Rust Whip, the country-rock band fronted by Kalamazoo’s Dylan Lancaster.

Jon Timm and Rust Whip are in the middle of doing a week of shows together and you can learn more about the both of them in this Mostly Midwest article.

Hometown heartthrobs Cold Mountain Child will be rounding out the bill on this one. Originally formed as the duo of Tyler Bradley and David Spalvieri-Kruse, the group has since grown into an ensemble of shifting members and instrumentation but still creates lush mountain-folk songs that’s prettier than socks on a rooster.

Simultaneously, down at the Victory House will be a total mixed-bag of a show with Pittsburgh’s Skinless Boneless on tour displaying their hyper blend of fuzzed-out Freak/Psych madness. As residents of Philadelphia’s Single Girl, Married Girl Records, a label that prides itself on putting out challenging music, if Skinless Boneless is as interesting and energetic live as they are on recording, they’ll put on a helluva show for sure.

Locals for this one will be on rather opposite ends of the musical spectrum. Terror Terror Oh My! are a party time Rock and Roll band that likes to deliver healthy doses of sass whereas Deep Waters are more of an introspective, chilled out act that resides somewhere on the fringes of the Pop music realm (and features some of the same members of Cold Mountain Child curiously enough – how they plan to pull this off will be a mystery).

Both shows are set to start at 9PM so be sure to get down one way or the other – unless you’re feeling adventurous, then grab some friends and hop between the two. Either way, make sure to throw some dollars towards the touring acts who will be in town.
