BIG BROTHER & THE HOLDING
COMPANY |

Thurs, Aug 30th 8 & 930pm |

Big Brother and the Holding Company was a
rock band formed in San Francisco in 1965 as part of the psychedelic
music scene that also produced the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane.
The group increased in popularity with the addition of lead singer Janis
Joplin, also in 1966. Their performance at the Monterey Pop Festival in
the following year attracted national attention. The latest
incarnation started up again in 1987 and has been touring part-time ever
since with most of its original members, including Sam Andrew, Peter
Albin and Dave Getz. |

MEM
SHANNON & THE MEMBERSHIP |

Wed, Aug 22nd -
10pm |

There’s the entire
New Orleans
musical tradition, and then there’s Mem Shannon. Clean, simple but
transcending genres, he channels the spirits that inspired Fats Domino,
Prof. Longhair, the Funky Meters and The Neville Brothers. I’m From
Phunkville is the fifth album by a man whose day job was his night
gig.
