Mikel Paris, Trouble Walkers tonight (August 13)

Posted By on Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 9:16 AM

MIKELPARIS Guitar drummer from O.A.R. is touring in support of his solo recording Flow. Guitar drumming? Paris taps, slaps and plays scats on an acoustic guitar, while brushing and strumming the strings to create a percussive vibe. It's jazzy, pop-rock playing wrapped around his crooning, while showcasing his jam band stints. Oh yeah, the cat can play some mean jazz piano, to boot. $10, The Evening Muse, www.theeveningmuse.com (Samir Shukla)

TROUBLE WALKERS Raw and ragged, drunken, good-time country and punk sloshed in some blues and rock — that's the Trouble Walkers who lurk in our own neck of the woods. Songs like "Snakes on Crosses" and "Country Pussy" pretty much tell the story, where rickety guitars and amps unwind and soak on Friday nights after that long-ass workweek. With Leadville Social Club and Lost Soul Traveling Show as a benefit for Loaves and Fishes. $8 or $7 with a nonperishable food donation, Tremont Music Hall, www.tremontmusichall.com (Shukla)
