Welcome to Creative Loafing’s weekend roundup podcast for July 19-21! Will Cardwell, Jacob Chisenhall, and Narah Landress join Music Editor Chad Radford to talk about their top picks for weekend music and more — Irrelevant Music Fest, Walken Tall, Peachfest, and more. Turn on, tune in, go out!

Fri., July 19
The Callous Daoboys, Void Eater, Black Matter Device, Dim into Dross, In Memories at the Bakery
A raucous night at the Bakery with a stacked bill of hardcore and screamo acts. $7. 7:30 p.m. 

Irrelevant Music Fest Night 3 at 529
The bottom line for the Irrelevant Music Festival has always been about showcasing Atlanta’s indie rock talent. Since the fest first arrived in 2016, founder and Irrelevant Music promoter Kyle Swick has modeled the festival after likeminded musical gatherings such as Cropped Out in Louisville, and Nameless Fest in Nashville, as each one offers platforms for local and regional musicians that are easily overlooked by the masses. Over the past three years, Irrelevant Fest has grown from a grass-roots event into a beacon for touring acts, with a lineup that places nationally and internationally touring artists on the same playing field as young Atlanta-based acts. This growing dynamic anchors the Atlanta music scene’s place in both a regional and national context. As of press time, no information has been announced yet, so stay tuned for more. Night 3 with: Fantasy Guys, Breathers, Ed Schrader’s Music Beat, The Queendom, Dot.s & True Blossom $12-$17. 7 p.m.

Walken Tall at Pulp
PULP is putting a twist on this tribute. Christopher Walken’s career has spanned over 60 years with classics such as Pulp Fiction, The Deerhunter, and True Romance. But you’re not going to see any of these films. This is a live show featuring The Doppleganger Theatre Company doing their best Walken impersonators. $17.50. 8 p.m.

Sat., July 20
