Rusty Redenbacher CD Release Event
Saturday, March 23, 2013
Daddy Real's The Place
3855 E. 96th Street
9:00 p.m., $10 includes copy of CD, all-ages
If you've spent any time in Broad Ripple, chances are you've run across Rusty Redenbacher. If you've been hanging around the Broad Ripple music scene for the twenty or so years that Rusty has been entertaining us and pushing the musical envelope, lucky you!
Rusty is celebrating the release of his third solo album, Lower, with an evening full of music by Rusty and friends - Mr. Kinetik, The Native Sun, Echomaker, MC Sparkplug and DJ Ganzarelli.
Rusty was recently named as one of Indiana's top 25 musicians by Indianapolis Star music writer, David Lindquist. He's in pretty remarkable company on that list, right up there with Cole Porter, Wes Montgomery, Paul Mahern, and Michael Jackson.
You might remember Rusty (then known as Russell Johnson) from his days as part of the rock groups, Birdmen of Alcatraz and Lazarus, and the hip-hop group The Mudkids. Each of the bands had a large local following and gained regional and national attention. I'm always amazed how Rusty attracts music fans of all ages and backgrounds, and is respected and loved by his fellow musicians.
The show promises to be great. The price of admission includes a copy of the album.
Pints for Pits Night, featuring Ultraviolet Blues Band
Saturday, March 30, 2013
Sabbatical
921 Broad Ripple Avenue
free (donations encouraged), 21+, 8:00, music 10:00
In this case the "pits" are doggies, pit bulls to be exact. The night will feature two sets from the Ultraviolet Blues Band and yummy tapas-style food from the talented folks at Sabbatical. All donations and a portion of the night's sales will be donated to benefit the dogs of Casa Del Toro Pit Bull Education and Rescue.
Ultraviolet Blues Band is celebrating the release of their new album, Un-Solid State Blues. Band members include Johnny Ping, Matt Riegel, Matt Kennicut, and John Jett. The band is lead by Johnny Ping and is a showcase of his almost two decades worth of blues material. Their inspirations include Elmore James, Hound Dog Taylor, and John Lee Hooker.
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.
