Local Music Tap: 4 Shows To See This Weekend
From the energetic Davina and the Vagabonds hitting the Dakota Jazz Club to a benefit show for autism at the Amsterdam Bar, here are the four shows to see for this weekend!
-----------
Friday/Saturday: Davina and the Vagabonds @ Dakota Jazz Club – Mpls.
For gritty/sassy vocals and high-energy music that spans multiple genres, look no further than Davina and the Vagabonds.
The well-traveled quintet is barreling into the Dakota Jazz Club for two nights and four shows. You read that correctly.
Shows begin at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. each night. Tickets are $15.
-----------
Saturday: Dead Bundy and the Neat Neat Neats @ 311 Club – Mpls.
For a change of pace, check out "psychobilly" rockers Dead Bundy and the Neat Neat Neats.
Like psychobilly implies, the Minneapolis band has a rockabilly flavor to it, with more of a punk-grudge edge to it, featuring an upright bass and twangy guitars.
They hit the 311 Club Saturday night with The Sexy Rays and DJ Lazer Bob – 10 p.m.
-----------
Sunday: Hip Hop 4 Autism @ Amsterdam Bar – St. Paul
Get down to some hip hop for a good cause this Sunday!
That's when Amsterdam Bar is hosting "Hip Hop 4 Autism", an event featuring artists like Carnage The Executioner, SP Style All Stars, 50 Tyson, Frostbyte, The Anchormen, Kool Aide and more.
All the proceeds go to the Autism Society of Minnesota programs.
Doors open at 5 p.m. and music begins at 6 p.m. It's an all-ages show. Tickets are $8 in advance and $10 at the door.

Sunday: Poolboy EP release party @ 7th Street Entry – Mpls.
The self-described "agitate psych rock" group Poolboy is celebrating the release of their self-titled EP this Sunday at the iconic 7th Street Entry.
The 18-plus show also features Val Son and Autumn Kid.
Tickets are $5 in advance and $7 at the door.
