Edit: I’m taking a break next week. I’ll be back with this column on March 30.
Kenny Wayne Shepherd rolls into town with a performance at the Cascade Theatre. You can catch Mumblefinger three nights in a row–Wednesday at Enjoy Local in Red Bluff, followed by Thursday at the Overtime Lounge in the Win-River Casino, and Friday at Three Shastas Bar & Grill in the Red Lion Hotel. Speaking of busy musicians, Steve Hermann plays at the Three Shastas Bar & Grill come Wednesday, followed by a Friday and Saturday run at Dry Creek Station. On Friday night, one of my favorite local duos plays at Fratelli’s Pizza Parlor, and if you’ve never seen Kevin Snider and Ken Brown perform, you should. We have a bunch of great local live entertainment going on this week. Enjoy.
