Here’s a quick look at the best shows and events happening in Atlanta this weekend Thursday, March 12th through Sunday, March 15th!
Phangs w/ 90’s Kids & Reptile Room at Vinyl
Thursday, March 12th at 8:00pm
A solo venture of Nashville-based musician Jake Germany, Phangs writes delicate, dreamy pop songs about love and loneliness, as heard on releases like 2017’s Get in My Arms.
Silent Planet / Currents / Invent Animate / Greyhaven / The Callous Daoboys – The Loft
Friday, March 13th at 6:00pm
Silent Planet are a Los Angeles-based metalcore band whose music embraces dynamics swinging from quiet, atmospheric contemplation to a full-on sonic assault, and whose lyrics offer a thoughtful view of the challenges of life in a destructive, chaotic world. Joined by Currents, Invent Animate, Greyhaven and Atlanta heavy-hitters The Callous Daoboys, this show has been upgraded from Vinyl to The Loft by popular demand!
Electric Avenue at The Vista Room
Friday, March 13th at 8:00pm
No wigs, no gimmicks or fake accents. Just the best New Wave and Pop songs from the 1980s performed the way you remember them.
Electric Avenue® ‘The 80’s MTV Experience’ is hands down, the most fun and accurate tribute to 1980s Pop & New Wave that you’re going to find anywhere this side of 1989.
Silverstein: 20 Year Anniversary Tour w/ Four Year Strong and I The Mighty at The Masquerade
Friday, March 13th at 6:00pm
For the past two decades, Silverstein have relentlessly pushed themselves to become the best version of the band for both themselves and their fans. That determination has led the Ontario-based five-piece from their underground roots to becoming one of the most influential bands in their scene, playing two thousand-plus shows all over the globe, and selling over a million records. Now Silverstein are celebrating their 20th anniversary with the release of their 9th, and perhaps strongest album to date: A Beautiful Place To Drown.
Bambara w/ Vincas at The Earl
Sunday, March 15th at The Earl
Founded in Athens, Georgia by twin brothers Reid and Blaze Bateh, and bassist William Brookshire, Bambara have been steadily attracting attention since the release of their 2013 debut. Earning praise from places like Pitchfork, NPR, VICE, Bandcamp, Spin, DIY, BrooklynVegan and The Quietus, and touring non-stop in the
US and Europe with like-minded artists like IDLES, METZ, Girl Band and Daughters, the band released their most celebrated album to date in 2018 with Shadow On Everything, a release that NPR dubbed a “mesmerizing western, gothic opus.”
