In Old Town Eureka, L.A.’s pyschobilly band The Rocketz wrap up a U.S. tour at The Siren’s Song Tavern with The Silver Shine all the way out from Budapest. I’m guessing this is their first time in Humboldt, so give ’em a warm welcome. Just $5 gets you in the door, so maybe leave a […]

Confused there was no Grateful Dead tribute show last weekend? Fear not, as tonight you can hear the Grateful Bluegrass Boys who are at Humboldt Brews at 9 p.m. As the name implies, they give the Dead tunes the bluegrass treatment and feature members of Hot Buttered Rum and the David Thom Band. It’s $10 […]

A cool all-ages show is being hosted at Outer Space in Arcata this evening at 7 p.m. with indie-rockers Palehound, on the road supporting their recent second album, A Place I’ll Always Go. It’s only $8 a great place for the under 21 crowd to hang out.

During Arts Alive last weekend I had the privilege of a sneak peek into the Clarke Historical Museum as it underwent its renovation and pairing with Humboldt Made to house the new Eureka Visitor Center, which has its grand opening this afternoon at 1 p.m. It’s a hell of a party for the new center […]

Celebrate what we office squares call “Hump Day” by grabbing a pint at the Mad River Brewery Tap Room and keeping in mind that if you call in sick tomorrow, there’s only one more working day left in the week. Local guitar-slinger Piet Dalmolen is doing his solo loopy guitar thing at 6 p.m. and […]

The Redwood Jazz Alliance’s fall season marches on and tonight it’s got the Dayna Stephens Quartet joined by pianist and composer Billy Childs. Stephens recently released an album entitled Gratitude after a successful and long-awaited kidney transplant. So it sounds like he has much to be grateful for. Show starts at 8 p.m. and is […]

It’s Arts Alive! In Old Town Eureka tonight so you’ll be treated to plenty of live music and local art. Cruise your way around First, Second and Third streets and soak it up. If you’d rather stay in Blue Lake, you can catch locals The Yokels doing their rockabilly soul thing at the Mad River […]
