Ben Watt
Wednesday, June 29, 2016
LUNA music
5202 N. College Avenue - all-ages, 9 PM, free
How exciting! Ben Watt is playing a solo show at LUNA music. You might know him from his years as half of the popular duo Everything But The Girl. Ben has just released his third solo album Fever Dream - 33 years after his first - in April to rave reviews.
In store performances are always wonderful. Everyone is there to listen and hearing music among the stacks of albums always feels special.

An all-day event showcasing Indiana bands? Yes, please! Musical Family Tree is a nonprofit organization with the noble mission of spreading, documenting, and preserving Indiana music. I encourage you to pop in for whatever part of the afternoon/evening you can to discover new-to-you bands and old favorites.

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.
