\nThis kid-hop outfit has won many accolades for its knowing mashup of styles. Drawing from the deep talent pool that is the Asheville music scene, Skidoo has assembled a group that can do most anything, making it look fun and easy while doing it. This event is particularly immersive and interactive, as it\u2019s a writing and performance workshop.<\/p>\n

\nOne of the most important and incisive artists to achieve prominence in the last few years, Fantastic Negrito makes a kind of modern rethink of the blues that is often not bluesy at all. \u201cBlues\u201d is far too restrictive a term to describe his music. It\u2019s funky, melodic, full of thought-provoking content, and simply irresistible. He\u2019s also a powerful and passionate performer.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/30do_judy_collins.jpg\")
Artist<\/b>: Judy Collins<\/a>

\nJudy Collins launched her musical career in 1961, but it was later that decade \u2013 and with the subsequent flowering of the singer-songwriter era \u2013 when she came to prominence. Collins even made commercial inroads in the 1970s with a series of well-regarded albums and singles. Often thought of as an interpretive artist, Collins released her first album of all original material, Spellbound<\/i>, in 2022. That release received a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/30do_michael_marcagi.jpg\")

\nVenue<\/b>: The Orange Peel<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Friday, Feb. 21, 8 p.m.

\nAn alterna-indie singer-songwriter from Cincinnati, Marcagi initiated his solo recording career with single, \u201cThe Other Side,\u201d in 2023. He followed that up with \u201cScared to Start,\u201d a hit in ten countries. The tune was the single from his debut EP, American Romance<\/i>, released in February 2024. His most recent single, \u201cMidwest Kid\u201d debuted two weeks ago. Ashley Kutcher opens.<\/p>\n
