Concert by Dent May from Jackson, Mississippi, performing with local artists at the Axelrad venue.
Dent May plays Axelrad on Friday, October 16, with local openers sharing the bill. The show starts at 7 PM on the Main Stage, 1517 Alabama Street in Houston.
May hails from Jackson, Mississippi, and brings that Southern indie-pop sensibility to the lineup. He's the headliner here, and the "Locals" part of the bill means you'll get a few Houston acts warming up the room before he takes over. It's a straightforward setup: a touring artist from a few states over paired with the city's own.
Axelrad is a venue that works across a wide range of genres—jazz, soul, blues, Latin, indie, electronic, experimental, world, ska, punk, pop, rock, and classical—so a night like this fits right into the mix. Much of what they do is built around recurring residencies: Axel-sad, an Emo Nite; free comedy nights on Punchline Mondays and Sundays hosted by Jeff Joe; free Jazz Wednesdays; Cumbia Libre on the second Friday of each month; and Glitch Garden on the last Saturday of the month. This show sits outside those regular slots, a standalone date on the calendar.
