Once again there are all kinds of things happening in Lethbridge the week. 
Tonight there is a jam at the Slice with Toques and Beards and bluesman Bill Durst is playing the Tongue n Groove.
Plenty of familiar faces return to the city this week. One I’m really looking forward to is seeing the Heartbroken, who return to the Slice, July 6.
Another much anticipated show also happens, July 6, this time at the Owl Acoustic Lounge when Shotgun Jimmie aka Sackville, New Brunswick based country/ rock musician Jim Kilpatrick returns with a full band, bassist Ian Kehoe who is best known for being part of “Attack in Black” and Ladyhawke drummer Ryan Peters.
Shotgun Jimmie and his band will be playing with Forest Tate Fraser at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, July 6 at approximately 8:30 p.m. There is no cover.
Tickets are going fast. They cost $25. Penny Fortune and The Necessities are also on the bill.
Edmonton based progressive rock band Living Illusion will be bringing their muse to the Tongue N Groove, July 8.
The band includes lead guitarist Shane Lamotte, vocalist/ guitarist Jason Lamotte, bassist Dave Stoten and drummer Cal Beaudoin. They formed in 2002 and released their self titled debut CD in 2007.
If you were looking forward to Flo Rida at Pulse, July 7, unfortunately the show has been cancelled due to circumstances beyond his control, he had to cancel the entire tour.
It is Streetwheelers weekend, so look for live music all over downtown and along Mayor Magrath Drive. Fast Times will be playing Backstreet Pub South on July 8 and 9.
Leeroy Stagger returns to the Slice, July 8 and Axis of Conversation return to the Slice with the Concrete Hearts, July 9.
And that’s just a few of the great shows happening this week.
