SUN/NOVEMBER 12
Noted acts
BENEFIT FOR RACHE ALPERT — Erin Musselwhite, the Gentle Readers and Kristen Hall perform at this 4 p.m. benefit, with proceeds going to help a friend's fight against lung cancer. My Sister's Room (Sarig)
RICHARD BICKNELL — Headlining an early show (doors at 8 p.m.), local crooner Bicknell has an undeniably rich, powerful voice and a knack for selecting unusually strong material that showcases that talent to full effect. DeAundra Peek opens. Smith's Olde Bar (Nicoll)
HORIZONMAG.COM DOES ATLANTA — Tonight the online e-zine HorizonMag.com presents an evening of Atlanta talent, featuring a rare set by Lara Kiang and Rob Gal of 6X. There's also a solo acoustic performance by Blake Rainey of the Young Antiques, soulful pop stylings from Sonya Vetra and a special appearance by avant-garde cellist/actress Diana Obscura (who is quickly becoming a natural resource of the local scene). This is a private, invitation-only show. Call 404-681-9018 for details. Star Bar (Nicoll)
LEVON HELM & THE BARN BURNERS — Helm shuffles his way through old-school rock standards and hits from his days with The Band. No other musician can replicate his Arkansas vocal twang or his patented laid backbeat drumming. Although his legacy is set in stone, he continues to tour and play for the people. Helm is the real deal. Planet Jam Cotton Club (Prusin)
