What Where When-sday: Blue June Music Fest

This week for What Where When-sday, we discuss Blue June Music Fest with John Vincent III. Happening at Brooklyn Bowl on Saturday, the touring one-day music fest will highlight folk, Americana, roots and country through local and non-local artists from CeCe Coakley, Kara Jackson, and Vincent himself. He joined us to talk about how the event came together.

Additional event opportunities start tonight with WNXP Presents Bleachers and former WNXP Nashville Artist of the Month Samia at the Ryman. Bleachers’ latest album is this week’s Record of the Week, and you can find a feature on the band here. Samia performed songs from her latest album, Honey, inside our Sonic Cathedral, and you can check out that session here.

Also tonight and tomorrow, Andre 3000 performs songs from his album New Blue Sun at The Blue Room. Then, Frist Fridays kick off at the art museum and continue through fall. You can round out your weekend with Pixies & Modest Mouse with Cat Power at Ascend on Sunday. On Tuesday night, Dreamer Boy performs at Exit/In.
