Mother's Worry and M31 rocked in the New Year while The Haymakers' fun, laid-back bluegrass sound entertained at Auntie Mae's on Thursday. This week You won't want to miss Carrie Nation & the Speakeasy at Mae's, and Church of SWOLE hosts Chicago based Mohit Mehta and Manhattan based Philosophy of Lions for the first time, with Headlight Rivals graciously performing "house-band" duties. Also look below for details on music in nearby Lawrence and Abilene.
