\nThe Asheville-based band fronted by three women \u2013 Loren Carty, Jessica Korn and Brooke Hendrickson\u2013 returns to the stage for a special show at a relatively new venue, Third room. Daydream Creatures\u2019 visual aesthetic leans in a rock direction, while the band\u2019s music\u2019s character is more nuanced. I reviewed their excellent (if idiosyncratically-titled) Qalupalik<\/i><\/a>, back in 2018. Julianna Jade opens.<\/p>\n

\nHow time flies. Austin-based rock band Spoon has been together since 1993. The band released its debut album, Telephono, in \u201896, some three decades ago. And I first saw them onstage in 2007. The band\u2019s latest release is 2022\u2019s Lucifer on the Sofa<\/i>, an unsurprisingly critically well-received set. Critics noted the band\u2019s effective balance of traditional rock values and modern sensibility.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/30do_slowrunner.jpg\")

\nSongwriter Michael Flynn leads Asheville-based Slow Runner. The band describes its sound as \u201cAmericana-adjacent\u201d and notes that Flynn\u2019s songs have been used in both television (Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/i>, Shameless<\/i>) and in commercials selling the virtues of automobiles and hair shampoo. Alrighty then! It\u2019s good to hear that, seeing as sync licensing is about the only way musicians make any real money. Good on \u2018em.

\nR.E.M.\u2019s debut single, the game-changing \u201cRadio Free Europe\u201d was released way back in 1981. The version most people know was recorded in 1983, as featured on Murmur<\/i>, the band\u2019s long-playing debut. In celebration of the influence and durability of that single (and of R.E.M. in general), a clutch of Asheville- and WNC-based bands are coming together for a one-night-only musical celebration. Proceeds benefit Asheville Middle School students\u2019 trip to Washington D.C.<\/p>\n
