Kirk's Pick

Who? Cobalt 6 Year Anniversary Party with Youngblood & The Wild Romantics
Where? Uh... The Cobalt.
When? Sunday, February 28th
Why? How can you say no to celebrating six years of The Cobalt (well, their current ownership) with Youngblood and The Wild Romantics?! You can't. That's how.

Christine's Pick

Who? Northcote, Mo Kenney, Frank Turner
Where? Commodore Ballroom
When? Thursday March 03
Why? I had to look up who headliner Frank Turner was (English musician), but anyone who puts Northcote AND Mo Kenney on the bill for openers is a smart cookie.

Jessica's Pick

Who? Lake Street Dive
Where? The Imperial
When? Tuesday, March 1st
Why? Every time I hear Lake Street Dive described on the radio it changes - sometimes they're billed as soul, other times jazz, sometimes rock'n'roll... in any case they're a full-throttle powerhouse band that will knock your socks off next Tuesday.
