Back in October of last year, Jerry Cantrell self-released his fourth solo album, I Want Blood. You may also know him from his famous band, Alice in Chains. During a recent show at The Fillmore Silver Spring, he played music from both solo and band catalogs to a packed house. To make a great show even better, Jerry brought Filter on the tour with him to open. This show made the 24-year-old that’s trapped inside me very happy.

Zach Hurd’s project known as Bay Ledges began in his bedroom back in 2015 with a plan to blend guitar and beats into quirky, sentimental pop motifs and simply having some fun.

Though he set no expectations, he rapidly developed a following after one of his singles — “Safe” — landed on Spotify’s Global Viral Chart in 2016.

On what may become like an annual residency in DC, Greensky Bluegrass was again in outstanding, top form while playing a second night recently at The Anthem for nearly a 3-hour set for admiring fans of bluegrass. Greensky Bluegrass, one of the biggest bluegrass bands on the planet, did not fail to impress and played one of the finest sets I’ve seen during the multiple shows I have had the good fortune to see over the last several years.

What do sequins, bluegrass music, and light shows have in common? They were all at The Anthem on the first of two recent nights when Greensky Bluegrass made a stop in DC on their 2025 Winter Tour with support from rock band Moon Taxi.

At The Anthem, the band’s dedicated fans showed up, decked out in all kinds of looks from matching sequin outfits, cowboy hats to match, to light up headbands. They cheered happy birthday for a bandmate, wrote signs at the barricade, and were excited to get the bands’ attention.

At the historic Howard Theater recently, Joy Oladokun got personal and vulnerable with the sold-out audience. Before coming back for a full-band electric set, she got the evening started with an intimate solo acoustic set.

As the daughter of Nigerian immigrants and a queer person, Oladokun often feels like an outsider. Growing up in a highly religious environment — a spirituality that still comes through in her music — she often felt like she didn’t belong. Living in Nashville now, she said, “this job makes me feel used and sad.” That’s the theme of her latest record, Observations From A Crowded Room, which came out last year.

For the better part of the last 55 years, concertgoers have been packing clubs to watch fingerstyle guitarist Jorma Kaukonen and bassist Jack Casady make music together.

This pair of longtime, legendary friends met each other growing up locally in Washington, DC, and became known far and wide as members of Jefferson Airplane. But in 1969, they launched a side project. Save an eight-year hiatus, they’ve stuck it out to thrive as the sneaky blues rock endeavor they call Hot Tuna.

In Annapolis, desperate fans recently were turned away from the Rams Head on Stage box office while those with tickets in hand giddily took a seat in the West Street space to experience Hot Tuna in its current design — a loose billing as the Hot Tuna Acoustic Quartet.
