Kellogg plays folk with a heavy traditional country tinge. His deep baritone and finger style sound like it emanates from the front porch of a farmhouse — which makes sense, because he lives on a farm in Ohio’s Amish country. Looking like a fire-and-brimstone preacher with a twinkle of mischief in his eyes, it’s hard to take his salt-of-the-earth tunes as anything but genuine. ...
Hailing from Dover, Ohio, State Bird plays some pretty raucous rock ‘n’ roll, though they didn’t start out that way. Those familiar with the band’s earlier efforts might remember them having a more indie-pop sound. Well apparently the boys in the band got into booze, pot and late ’90s post-punk between releases and produced a gem of a stonerish rock record. While it has long been said you can’t judge a book, or in this case a record, by its cover, State Bird’s “Healing the Pain” cover is representative of the sound on the album inside the sleeve: Two sweaty girls in party ...
December 2 - Canton - The Auricle Jordan Witzigreuter, a.k.a. The Ready Set, and his backing band are bringing the indie rock to The Auricle on December 2. In October, The Ready Set released "Feel Good Now," and there is a good chance those songs will be on the set list. Also on the bill are The Summer Set, The Downtown Fiction and Plug In Stereo. The Ready Set plays happy, rocky pop that you can bounce up and down to. Listening to "More Than Alive" lifts my mood, in much the way Bruno Mars does. $16 isn't too much for this one.

Johnny Depp returns to the work of Hunter S. Thompson (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) for The Rum Diary. Depp plays American journalist Paul Kemp who takes on a freelance job in Puerto Rico for a local newspaper during the 1950s and struggles to find a balance between island culture and the ex-patriots who live there. The Rum Diary opens nationwide on Oct. 28....
It's Teen Night, so only those between the ages of 13 and 18 will be admitted. But let me tell you, if you're in that age group, this is a show to see. The young guns of Brighter Side play straight up, old school blues that's well before their time, and Maid Myriad plays alt-pop that the whippersnappers are sure to love. Plus, JCK of Maid Myriad is sure to make any teenage girl swoon. 8/28 Funny Stop • Cuyahoga Falls ...
My Life's Burden plays hard rock/ chug chug chug metal hybrid that's so popular now a days. It's fairly heavy and melodic. They've been playing around Northeast Ohio for a couple years now, so chances are if you're game for that type of music, you may have seen them so where along the line. 8/5 Outpost Concert Club • Kent ...
Don’t let the tattoos and cowboy hat fool you: Johnny Winter plays classic blues, and he’s been doing it since he was signed to Columbia Records in 1969. If his music doesn’t speak for itself, his Grammy wins and nominations pick up the slack. ...
As one of his many side projects, The Dead Milkmen’s guitarist and vocalist Joe Genaro, under the name Joe Jack Talcum, plays a toned-down style of music reminiscent of his early ’80s punk-rock days. This summer he’s touring with The Bassturd, with whom he recorded a split 7-inch. ...
This hot Aussie has the guitar skills to keep the men happy and the sex appeal to keep the women not caring about what he plays. Urban straddles the line between country and rock, keeping him palatable for many music tastes. ...
Don your big hair and your acid-washed jeans, and listen to your favorite ‘80s rock classics. With covers of Billy Idol, Kiss and AC/DC, My Drunk’n Uncle plays the soundtrack for the decade. Roll up in your Fiero and relive your glory days. ...
He’s not just a guy with a guitar; he’s like a one-man-band. Kristoffer plays different parts of the harmony on his several guitars and then uses looping to create a full-band sound. And he does it all live. ...
The Akron three-piece plays a gypsy-blues style — a less punk, more composed Gogol Bordello. The band claims to be descended from Spanish gypsies, and they certainly sound like it. See for yourself at the Sweet Pea Café. ...
Akron’s Mo Mojo plays Zydeco, a form of Southern folk characterized by the heavy use of accordion and washboard. It’s a lot like Creole, but more uptempo with a bit of jam-band ethics. The band has a revolving lineup, but usually performs as an eight-piece. ...
Kinch plays indie rock with a heavy pop influence. Think The Strokes playing Ben Folds songs. The Phoenix four-piece has been kicking around since 2008, delighting fans with their tight vocal harmonies and catchy melodies. If you haven’t heard the band you can download their complete catalog on their website for free. Yeah, they’re just giving it away. ...
Ian McLagan is known to the world as the keyboard player for British rock pioneers the Small Faces (later the Faces) beginning in the ‘60s. He has backed artists such as Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt and Bruce Springsteen (among other artists whose names begin with “B”) and tonight plays the Winchester with his own band. ...
Bill plays downtuned, four string guitar “acoustic hardcore blues.” A Scarcity of Tanks plays hook-heavy electric talking blues. Together they spell a rowdy evening in the Flats. ...
Héctor Del Curto plays the bandoneón. Nope, that’s not the latest sports utility vehicle from Dodge — it’s a concertina played in tango music. And Del Curto is one of the best in the world: This Buenos Aires native has played at the Kennedy Center and was the youngest bandoneónist to perform in tango legend Osvaldo Pugliese’s orchestra. ...
