\u201cThird Thursdays\u201d is a monthly event at Downtown\u2019s Hard Rock Hotel put on by radio station 91X and the Casbah. This month, headliners The Whiskey Circle will release a new EP and hand it out to attendees for free. Frontwoman Leanna May Patterson will flex her sweet pipes, which lend themselves to the country-fied folk style of the band. Las Vegas rockers American Cream and local singer-songwriter Tolan Shaw round out the lineup. Be sure to check out Shaw\u2019s pop\/soul song \u201cEyes,\u201d which is 91X\u2019s featured \u201cLocal Break\u201d for the month. For RSVP visit 91X.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Brenda Xu, The Lovebirds, and Miss Erika Davies at Lestat\u2019s<\/a> (on Adams Ave.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thursday, Oct. 16 | 9 p.m. | $10<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is one rad lineup of lovely ladies, each bringing something a little different to the stage. Miss Erika Davies\u2019 delicate vocals and poetic lyrics are perfect for the intimacy of Lestat\u2019s, while The Lovebirds\u2019 sweet pop folk will have the audience bouncing along to their tunes. Headliner Brenda Xu, who started her career in San Diego, is touring in support of her recently released album \u201cFor the Winter.\u201d Xu\u2019s style and vocal power, reminiscent of Aimee Mann and Kate Bush, is wildly enchanting.<\/p>\n

Social Club missed playing The Merrow last month due to a power outage, and I\u2019m happy to see they\u2019ll be giving it another go barring any crazy thunderstorms. The band\u2019s debut \u201cGamma Rays\u201d is full of catchy tunes that blend upbeat pop and good ol\u2019 rock \u2018n\u2019 roll. It\u2019s been in heavy rotation in my world for the last year or so. Hint hint, guys: Fans want a new SC album. They\u2019ll be joined by ambient rockers Nicely for this one. Don\u2019t forget to RSVP on The Merrow\u2019s sitio web<\/a> to get in for free.<\/p>\n

Every Wednesday jazz trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos and dozens of other musicians take to the Seven Grand stage to jam together. On this special occasion, the already popular event will get an added boost from The Midnight Pine, recent winners of Best Americana Album at the San Diego Music Awards. The band will play with Castellanos and the other jazz artists for a genre-bending set starting around 10 p.m. It will be very interesting to hear the results of this special project.<\/p>\n

Jesse LaMonaca and The Dime Novels, and Michael McGraw at Sycamore Den<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Thursday, Oct. 23 | 9 p.m. | Free<\/strong><\/p>\n

Americana mainstays Jesse LaMonaca and The Dime Novels have an ideal sound for the rustic hunting lodge look of Sycamore Den. LaMonaca\u2019s voice can be sweet and subtle on songs like \u201cWhen You Call\u201d and big and bold on songs like \u201cThe Flood,\u201d both from 2012\u2019s \u201cThe Lament of Tumbleweed Hawk.\u201d The different sides of the frontman\u2019s talents showcase his willingness to bare raw emotions. Intense live performances with the full band will make any listener an instant fan. Plus, you can enjoy killer cocktails by Sycamore\u2019s crafty bartenders. And did I mention it\u2019s free?<\/p>\n
