live music

If you're a fan of live music, especially outdoors on warm summer nights, then you're going to be very happy with the lineup announced for this summer at Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids.

We're still wondering how Dave got his drum kit up there...

Join the Kalamazoo State Theatre's State on the Street every Friday through October from 5:00pm to 7:00pm.

We're all craving live music, but what' can a band do when there are no live music venues to play in? You play on them...

This year, Midwest Fest welcomes Fastball. That's right, the band that showed us The Way in the 90s has a new album, The Help Machine, and they're ready to bring their classics and new tracks Austin, Texas to Decatur, Michigan.

Doors open at 8:00pm, show starts at 9:00, and The 1985 will rock you until 1:00am, playing everything from Prince to Heart, Tone Loc to Abba, Wilson Philips to Vanilla Ice - you'll sing along to every word as you ring in the Leap Day with The 1985!

Two great local bands. One historic Kalamazoo bar. All that for $5.

Best part, there's no cover to enjoy the homegrown musical acts and fun summertime games!

This two piece band - yes, just two guys behind all this music - might even bust out their version of the Devo hit Whip It.

Get ready for great covers from Psychedelic Furs, David Bowie, Devo, Tears for Fears, Men at Work, The Police and so much more. According to their Facebook page, the band stays "true to the spirit of the original recordings while still leaving room for (their) own musical personalities, and maybe even a little jamming...".
