Touring artists are getting back into the swing of things. That means that this roundup of live music in Asheville features two national acts. The other two spotlighted shows each present three local artists. A nice mix here of singer-songwriter, electronica, blues and modern pop. And though Ididn\u2019t plain it this way, of the eight musicians featured in this 30 Days Out, seven are women. Support live music, because now you can.<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Black Joe Lewis<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: Salvage Station<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Sunday, July 11, 7 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $25
\nSome blues artists are fanatical, endeavoring to preserve the music in amber. Others take it too far in a bloozerock direction. But a special few have found a way to infuse the form with modern elements like hip-hop. Fantastic Negrito is one; Black Joe Lewis is another. I last interviewed him in 2019<\/a>. Big Woozy opens. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Women of Synthpop
\nVenue<\/b>: The Orange Peel<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Friday, July 16, p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $10 advance \/ $12 day of show
\nI\u2019ll admit up front that I am familiar with none of these artists, but the show looks to be quite interesting. Angry Lovers<\/a> features some compelling synth work with fascinating vocals. Ivy Hawkins<\/a> posted a message on Facebook looking for dancers to accompany her on stage. \u201cMust be able to twerk,\u201d she wrote. Astoria? I got nuthin\u2019 on that one.<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Japanese Breakfast<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: The Orange Peel<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Friday, July 23, 8 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $30
\nI discovered Japanese Breakfast more than five years ago, when the group led by Michelle Zauner released its debut album<\/a>. Two albums later, they\u2019ve established an impressive track record, with all three albums being highly regarded among critics. I think of them as dream-pop, but there\u2019s more than that going on.<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Songwriters in the Round
\nVenue<\/b>: The Grey Eagle<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Thursday, July 29, 6 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $12
\nHannah Kaminer, Kathryn O\u2019Shea and Laura Boswell are all Asheville-based singer-songwriters. I reviewed Kaminer\u2019s <\/a>Heavy Magnolias<\/i> album<\/a> in 2018, and I interviewed Boswell<\/a> right before the youknowwhat<\/i> hit early last year. O\u2019Shea is new to me, but she describes herself as a \u201cbanjo-playing folk\/indie-rock singer-songwriter.\u201d Pat, I\u2019d like to buy a hyphen.<\/p>\n

See you at the shows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
