Dax Riggs

Tonight we have a pretty strong Wednesday selection of music for all flavors of taste. Deadboy and the Elephantmen frontman Dax Riggs returns to the Casbah for some gritty rock, while up at Bar Pink, Brothers Young will charm your heart with beautiful harmonies. The core of the band are actually brothers, and their last name is actually Young, and if you're familiar with their other brother's music, Loch Lomond, you'll know that these guys are the real deal. If that still doesn't work for ya, Si*Se is up at the Belly Up tonight. I remember seeing this band at Street Scene several years ago, and there wasn't a person in sight who wasn't dancing to their music. It was so fun I picked up their CD after the set, which I still have to this day. Not too shabby for a Wednesday.
