Featured performers this night are songwriter, guitarist and visual artist Abe Partridge (Mobile, AL) who is on the cusp of releasing his newest album Love In The Dark, David Childers (Charlotte, NC), and Athens’ own Ken Will Morton who hasn’t played live since 2021. IN THE LAB: Longtime Athens-based publicist Michelle Roche will present a solid bill of Americana folk at Ciné on Thursday, Feb. For more information, please see or call 70.

His professional bona fides are without question, and he’s toured the world, including appearances at some of the most renowned festivals and stages on Earth. ![]() The blind pianist and former child prodigy will make his Athens debut with his quintet. TICKLING THE IVORIES: The Performing Arts Center at UGA will host jazz pianist Matthew Whitaker Friday, Feb. The Miraculous Miracle of the Imperial Empire by Kevin Dunn For the unfamiliar, get up to speed at, and if you’re already familiar, just get yourself to ATHICA. With no exaggeration, Dunn was a key player in the advancement of Southern new wave, both with his own music (The Fans, Regiment of Women, et al) and his production and support of peer groups such as The B-52s and Pylon. His resume is undeniable, and his talent nearly unquestionable. Featured that night is the irrepressible and thoroughly heroic Kevin Dunn. GIT ‘ER DUNN: ATHICA (Athens Institute for Contemporary Art) continues its free music night series, under the direction of Monty Greene, on Tuesday, Feb.

The final track, “Safe in Sound (Spacers),” does, however, sound exactly like the type of music that plays during pauses in public-access TV programming when those cards with community announcements are shown. Occasionally it feels like a subtle appeal to the cleanliness of mechanical reproduction (“Feel Me Feel You (Satyriacs)”) but that’s really just a vibe, and there’s nothing explicitly pointing my feelings this way. There’s a rhythm here, but it might take a few passes to discern it. That’s not to say, however, that it slogs along, which it definitely doesn’t. It has neither immediacy nor urgency, and it drifts along at its own slow pace. Which is to say, don’t expect this to capture your attention if you throw it on.
