This is a big week for music here in Madison. One of Wisconsin’s most famous sons, Grammy-nominated Bon Iver, returns home this week, making a stop in town on Saturday. The show sold out almost immediately, but we’ve paired up with the A.V. Club to give away two tickets to one lucky participant in our Good Winter Scavenger Hunt (more details below)!
In this season of giving, we will take time to reflect on all the wonderful music and memories that local songwriter and dear friend Marques Bovre (pictured) has bestowed upon us, and try to give back to him on Sunday evening with Medicine, a musical tribute concert featuring some of the region’s finest acts, including a performance from Marques himself. Donations made at the door will assist Marques and his family in covering expenses related to his cancer treatment.
We’re also thrilled to welcome hip hop act G-Side to the High Noon Saloon next Monday. Pitchfork says the duo “turns songs that are celebratory of simple things (a girl sending sexy cell-phone pictures, visiting Paris for the first time) or full of thoughtful sentiments (supporting family, helping community) into something epic.” We can’t wait to see what they’ll pull off live.
