Ohhhhh, man, we love us some Hell Yeah Babies. Not sure if you checked out their debut LP, but its darn, darn good. And, thankfully for Frederick, they are coming to Guido’s this weekend because they got … you know … some Frederick ties. And honestly: You oughta adjust your weekend plans right flipping now. So, so sugary sweet. So, so good. Also … well … in case you forgot, SoulXChange played this year’s Frederick Music Showcase, and their first show back in town since that fateful February night is this weekend at Cafe Nola. So, it might be a good idea to drop in there. Why? Because they slayed at the Weinberg, so they’re going to slay at Nola. Elsewhere this weekend … hey, it’s Easter! So, there’s that. Because of as much, it appears the music side of things will be a little more low key than normal, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be some fantastic things to check out in addition to what we’ve already mentioned. For instance, did you see our Q&A with Zeppelin & Company this week? Those guys are coming to The Blue Side and that should be super fun. Zydeco Jed is headed to Barley & Hops and really: Zydeco music is wayyyyyy fun. So, give the dude some love. Brooklyn’s Fat Heaven will be playing at Guido’s with Samuel Powers and a two-piece band that likes Pyramids. And then there’s Devil’s Reef, which sounds ominous. Goodbye, March. Hello, April. We’re going to shut it down for a few days next week, so … miss us? Maybe? Hopefully? Please? Hey. We’ll miss you. Loves and hugs.
