Open Mic with Butch Moore Stagger Inn ... Again	Every week Sunday, 9:00pm	Collinsville/ Edwardsville	Music
The eclectic spirit of Open Mic Nights at Stagger Inn have become legendary over the years. One might witness just about anything from a college student playing in front of a crowd for the first time to a full band trying out some new material to a comedian or novelty songwriter. This variety... More >>

Soulard Blues Band Broadway Oyster Bar	Every week Monday, 9:00pm more dates/times	St. Louis - Downtown	Music
There have been some serious changes in the St. Louis blues scene over the past year. Perennial local favorites Oliver Sain and Johnnie Johnson have passed on, leaving us richer for having known them and their music, yet indisputably poorer in their absence. The departure of Sain and... More >>

Ian McLagan Off Broadway	Tue., November 24, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
At this point in his career, it would be easy for keyboardist Ian McLagan to coast on his résumé. He’s a founding member of the Small Faces and the Faces, was a key sideman on Rod Stewart’s early solo albums and has recorded and toured with the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan,... More >>

Freakers Ball Atomic Cowboy	Last Wednesday of every month	St. Louis - Forest Park Southeast	Music
When Clownvis Presley (alter ego of 7 Shot Screamers lead singer Mike Leahy) hosted the RFT Music Awards ceremony in 2008, one couldn't help but hope that when the Screamers went up to accept the award for Best Rock Band, Leahy would be with them and he and Clownvis would meet onstage in...

Grand Buffet The Firebird	Thu., November 26, 9:00pm	St. Louis - Midtown	Music
"St. Louis, happy Thanksgiving! Let's get druck and funk," says Grand Buffet frontman Lord Grunge, who's put down his PSP long enough to zap a few e-mail zingers from the road. The Pittsburgh indie-rap group is still unjustly best known for its freeform stage show, which is equal parts improv... More >>

Brave Combo The Gramophone	Fri., November 27, 9:00pm	St. Louis - Tower Grove	Music
Brave Combo is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary by doing what it’s always done: tour. For three decades, the Denton, Texas, band has mixed polka, cumbia and other accordion-driven styles with rock, salsa and anything else that strikes its fancy. The troupe has appeared on the Jerry... More >>

Jeremy Davenport Jazz at the Bistro	Fri., November 27, 7:00pm more dates/times	St. Louis - Grand Center	Music
If the famously tragic jazzman Chet Baker had avoided heroin and depression, and instead taken to sipping cocktails and cracking wise with the Rat Pack, he might have ended up sounding a bit like Jeremy Davenport, the trumpeter, singer and St. Louis native who’s returning home for his... More >>

The Rats and People Motion Picture Orchestra Off Broadway	Sat., November 28, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
Fans of inventive, literate rock & roll shed a little tear when Rats & People called it quits last year. By combining British folk- and indie-rock traditions, the band cut a path between the Dead Milkmen and the Decemberists and left the excellent album The City of Passersby in its wake. But... More >>

Season to Risk The Firebird	Sat., November 28, 9:30pm	St. Louis - Midtown	Music
Talk about influence. For a time there in the ’90s, it seemed that people in the Midwest were even sneezing differently – louder, more dissonant, more staccato – because of bands like the Jesus Lizard, Shiner and Molly McGuire. One of the weirdest and most jagged of these... More >>

Buffalo Bob Blues Band Backstreet Jazz & Blues	Every week Sunday, 9:00pm	Maryland Heights	Music
Sunday nights at Backstreet Jazz and Blues in Westport Plaza always feature a laid back night of blues from both veterans and newcomers to the local blues scene hosted by Buffalo Bob and the Bedroom Blues Band. The intimate surroundings of the club offer the perfect backdrop to an unscripted... More >>

Jill Sobule Off Broadway	Mon., November 30, 8:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
Jill Sobule was kissing girls decades before Katy Perry even knew what lips were for, and her 1995 hit "I Kissed a Girl" remains witty, catchy and barrier-busting in ways that Perry's calculated titilation never even tries to imagine. But Sobule is more than a novelty one-hitter. At her best,... More >>

Camera Obscura Off Broadway	Tue., December 1, 9:00pm	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Music
Early in its career, Camera Obscura seemed fated to languish in the shadows of fellow countrymen Belle & Sebastian. With a shared affinity for mellifluous chamber pop and melancholy tales of teenage pining sung in soft, lilting Glaswegian accents, the comparisons were impossible to shake. But... More >>

Big D and the Kids Table The Firebird	Wed., December 2, 7:30pm	St. Louis - Midtown	Music
The phrase “ska is dead” has been uttered so often by scenesters desperate to distance themselves from their checkered-shoe-wearing past that it’s turned tongue in cheek and become the namesake for an annual tour proving just the opposite: Ska is a vibrant subgenre worthy of your... More >>
