It's impossible to go wrong with any band that features both a kazoo AND a ukulele, and if you're able to watch them without cracking a smile and tapping a toe, you should probably check your pulse.

Folk music with a flavor of the '30s-40s is injected with fresh, modern storytelling. Petal Shop, from Detroit, performs with an energy that is at once the subtle tension of an intimate folk concert and the wild, pentecostal drive of punk-driven bluegrass. Fiddle, banjo and guitar cling to each other as three vocals intersect and blend into a single, stratified voice. Dancing is common, both on and off stage as Petal Shop's members beg for “just one 'amen!'” Doors open at 7 pm. General admission seating - arrive early to reserve your spot. $5-$7.
