Buzzing Around Town

Teddy Geiger with Jesse Ruben
Monday, July 23, 2012
Birdy's Bar and Grill - 2131 E. 71st Street
21+, doors 7:30, show 8:30, $10 presale, $12 day of show
Teddy Geiger is barely old enough to legally go to Birdy's, but he's been performing for years. His debut album, Underage Thinking, entered the Billboard Top 200 at #8 and produced a million-selling Top 10 single, "For You I Will" - when Teddy was just 16.
Not only is Teddy a great singer and songwriter, he's proficient on a number of instruments including guitar, bass, piano and drums.
Teddy is popular with both fans and critics. "Teddy Geiger projects an easy charm along with his real pop chops," raved The New York Times while People magazine, in a three-and-a-half star "Critic's Choice" review, predicted that "Teddy Geiger should have a long career ahead of him."
Teddy's energetic new school pop, described as being in the spirit of rock's glory days, earned him spots on shows featuring Gavin DeGraw, Kelly Clarkson, and Hilary Duff's #1 pop tour. Teddy has shared bills with Brandi Carlile, Pete Yorn. My favorite Teddy fact? He was first man to grace the cover of Seventeen magazine in five years.
The equally as talented and young Jesse Ruben will be opening the show.


Old Truck Revival CD Release Show
Saturday, July 28, 2012
Locals Only
2449 E. 56th Street - 8:00 pm, 21+, $5.
The band, Old Truck Revival, is "Junk Box Mike" Calvert and John Bowyer, occasionally joined by some of their musical friends. They are hosting a Hillbilly Music Festival to celebrate the release of their first CD, Oweda. Joining them on the bill are Punkin Holler Boys and The Fabulous Slim Tones.
The Old Truck Revival will be an evening with a great mix of Bluegrass, Newgrass, Folk, and everything that is great about music. I hear a rumor that there might be a prize or two for the best dressed down outfit of the night.





Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
