Nationally-touring artists are the focus of this edition of 30DO. Off we go!<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Mike Mattison<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: Asheville Music Hall<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Saturday, Jan. 17, 9 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $18.65
\nGrammy winner Mike Mattison may not be a household name \u2013 yet \u2013 but he\u2019s a key figure in the work of some better-known names. As a longtime member of Tedeschi Trucks Band, he provided the initial creative spark that inspired that group to create its 2022 four-album opus I Am the Moon<\/i>. He writes for that group as well, and co-wrote (with Trucks and Warren Hayes) \u201cThese Changes\u201d on Haynes\u2019 2024 album Million Voices Whisper<\/i>. Mattison is touring in support of his third solo album, Turn a Midnight Corner<\/i>, out January 16. Of all things, it’s actually a blues concept album<\/em>!<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: The Ocean Blue<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: Wortham Center<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Thursday, Jan. 29, 8 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $39
\nThis Pennsylvania-based indie band debuted in 1986, signing with Sire Records and releasing three albums for the label. They placed six of their first seven singles on the Alternative Top 40, with 1989\u2019s \u201cBetween Something and Nothing\u201d their biggest hit. No new music has been forthcoming since 2019, but they have a deep catalog form which to draw for live shows. The current tour promises to lean into the band\u2019s \u201cdarker and dreamier side.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Pete Yorn<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: The Orange Peel<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Saturday, Feb. 7, 8 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $56.70
\nSinger-songwriter Pete Yorn was a critical favorite and commercial success right out of the gate with 2001\u2019s Musicforthemorningafter<\/i>. His music is often subtle and contemplative, though 2006\u2019s Nightcrawler<\/i> rocks hard in places. I interviewed Yorn<\/a> around the time of that album\u2019s release; it was one of my first handful of interview assignments. His most recent release is 2024\u2019s The Hard Way<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\"\"Artist<\/b>: Say She She<\/a>
\nVenue<\/b>: The Grey Eagle<\/a>
\nDate<\/b>: Sunday, Feb. 15, 8 p.m.
\nDoor<\/b>: $32.84
\nA trio of classically-trained singers, Say She She (Piya Malik, Sabrina Mileo Cunningham and Nya Gazelle Brown) are most definitely not a classical act. Their music is psychedelic soul in the grand tradition. A critics\u2019 favorite, they have musical sizzle and taste in equal measure.<\/p>\n

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