For the past couple weeks, I've been touting Olin & the Moon and Maxim Ludwig & the Santa Fe Seven -- and with good reason: Both bands totally rock. But this week, they're joined by Michael McGraw, who is celebrating his birthday, which makes tonight's show a little bit extra special. The residency has been going quite well, but there are only two shows left, and you don't want to be the person who missed these bands when you had the chance to see them, so get on over to the Casbah tonight and you'll see what I mean.
