West Michigan's music scene
Before the weather REALLY turned wintry and nasty, West Michigan managed to celebrate some powerfully good concerts by national and local acts, starting with a Wednesday flurry that featured My Brightest Diamond at Wealthy Theatre, Chuck Prophet at Tip Top Deluxe Bar & Grill, and The Crane Wives Trio with the Max Lockwood Sextet at SpeakEZ Lounge (the first in a series of Local Spins Wednesdays at SpeakEZ Lounge shows). Check out a full photo gallery and story about that busy Wednesday night at Local Spins here.
But that was the just beginning as the Local Spins Weekend Photo Gallery proves, with:
• The reunited Bone Thugs-n-Harmony unleashing their hip-hop harmony at The Intersection on Thursday;
• Brooklyn’s five-piece Pimps of Joytime uncorking a set of soul, blues, rock and funk at Founders Brewing the same night;
• Jazz trumpet player Brad Fritcher — who played Mexicains Sans Frontieres on Friday night — joining bandmate and pianist Dutcher Snedeker earlier in the day to perform live on the air during Local Spins on WYCE;
• West Michigan Celtic faves An Dro delivering acoustic charm as part of the Friday night MAJIC Concert Series at Bethlehem Lutheran Church;
• Natural Child and Heaters turning up the volume at The Pyramid Scheme the same night;
• Grand Rapids hard rock band The Rockit King revving up the CD-release show on Saturday for its new album, “Truth Will Set You Free,” at The Pyramid Scheme, with Deadwood Stone and Jim Shaneberger also on the bill.
