Ever since Joy Oladokun burst onto the scene, she’s been celebrated for her unique voice, personal lyrics, and eclectic style that blends elements of pop-folk with electronic, country, and R&B. After releasing two critically acclaimed albums, Oladokun returned last year with Observations From A Crowded Room. She’ll perform some of her latest and greatest at her sold-out show at Thalia Hall this Friday, January 17th, at 7 PM.
Guitar wizard Myles Kennedy likes to stay busy. When he’s not fronting his band Alter Bridge or laying down sick riffs with guitar legend Slash, he’s working on music for his solo career. He released his latest album, The Art Of Letting Go, last year, and now he’s ready to tear it up on stage. Catch Kennedy’s performance at The Forge in Joliet this Friday, January 17th at 7 PM. You can still grab tickets here. Read our recent cover story with Myles.
