Each week, the JME team looks long and hard at the concert calendar to identify the best shows in Jacksonville. Our weekly Go recommendations are updated every Monday morning and are always available on jaxmusic.org.
Here’s the rundown of what JME contributors want to see and hear in and around Jacksonville this week.
Alt-Country
American Aquarium – Monday, June 20
Ponte Vedra Concert Hall | Ponte Vedra
Raleigh, NC-brad alt-country faves American Aquarium continues their summer tour promoting their anthemic new offering — the 10-song Chicamacomico (out now on Thirty Tigers records) — with a stop at the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall on Monday.
Americana/R&B
Nathanial Rateliff & The Night Sweats – Tuesday, June 21
St. Augustine Amphitheatre | St. Augustine
