Psst! Tickets for our fall shows are becoming harder and harder to come by. Ingrid Michaelson’s upcoming show at the Barrymore recently sold out, and available tickets to the Avett Brothers are going fast. These are just a few of the season’s high-demand concerts, so to make sure you get in to see the shows you crave, visit our Music Calendar page and get tix ASAP. But for those of you who waited until the last minute, we might be able to help you out too. Read on to find out more about the shows coming up this week from Drummer, The Avett Brothers, Yonder Mountain String Band, Langhorne Slim, Pretty Lights, The Black Dahlia Murder, Ingrid Michaelson, Julian Marley and the Uprising, Emmylou Harris, and David Bazan. You might just win a pair of tickets to one of ’em!
