Courtney Phenicie's Profile

The Yawpers are in town at MOTR Pub on Saturday, October 21st with Low Cut Connie! The Yawpers’ recently released third album Boy in a Well is a sensational tragedy set in World War I France about a mother abandoning her unwanted newborn child. But, like the band itself, there’s so much more roiling beneath the surface.

When the leaves start to fall from the trees, my music playlists switch from upbeat to more mellow. While jam bands, EDM, hip-hop, and faster feminist rock rule my summer months, folk, alt-country, and singer-songwriter music creeps its way back into the prominent position on my playlists.

TALK is a self-described soul-filled psychedelic rock band. This local band may be new to the scene, but can take you back to a happier time. They just released their debut self-titled album in April. You can catch them at BLINK on Saturday on the Findlay Market Stage at 8p.

This Thursday, make it a point to be a part of history in the making. Queen City Kings is an intimate concert series; each concert tells a piece of the story of King Records. To recreate the true King experience, the audience will participate in the performance by sitting among the musicians while listening through headphones.

Nearly 30 artists will take to BLINK stages, October 12-15, providing live entertainment for the 20-block lights and art event.
