Anand’s Picks to Click

CALL THE SITTER

  • April 17: Graham Nash @ The Paramount Theater
    I mean he’s the “N” in CSNY. You kind of have to go see this legend perform in an intimate and beautiful theater.

GET YOUR TICKETS

  • April 17-18: Billy Strings @ JPJ
    This is the hottest act across many genres in music and the second coming of Phish. But also co-signed by The Dead. And pretty much everyone in the music industry as THE guy. Go see him if you haven’t, and I know if you already have seen him, you’re going again.

CHECK IT OUT

  • April 16: Dead Billionaires, Pinkish, Shagwuf @ Superfly Brewing Co.
    This is pop punk royalty at Superfly Brewing Co, and Shagwuf has a new drummer so you gotta go check her out!
