The typical winter slowdown doesn&#8217;t seem to be happening this year. These suggestions just scratch the surface, so time to break out of your cabin fever and go see some live music!<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, February 3<br \/>\n<strong>Huntertones @ Abilene Bar and Lounge<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival, Rochester gets to experience some of the best music the world has to offer. The artists, in turn, get to experience the best Rochester has to offer as a music town. Lucky for us, this gets many of the acts to return, even in the off season. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huntertones.com\/\">Huntertones<\/a> were a hit with their sets at this past year&#8217;s festival and they&#8217;re back for an encore at the intimate Abilene Bar and Lounge. The old juke joint will be jumping with their big brass sound. They&#8217;re not afraid to throw in some uniquely surprising covers in the mix; their version of &#8220;God Only Knows&#8221; was a highlight this summer.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Huntertones - &quot;Birdsong&quot; [Live at Rockwood Music Hall]\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AKops22IvVM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Monday, February 5<br \/>\n<strong>Honeysuckle @ Funk &#8216;n Waffles Music Hall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Boston&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.honeysuckleband.com\/homepage\">Honeysuckle <\/a>bring their acoustic trio to Funk &#8216;n Waffles Music Hall. It&#8217;s traditional in nature, with guitar, banjo and mandolin. But throw in a kick drum and some non-traditional song structures and it becomes something unexpected and exciting. Three-part harmonies and wonderful songwriting bring this young group to the next level. Fans of Americana looking for something fresh but familiar will find lots to warm to here.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Live!

We caught <a href=\"https:\/\/nysmusic.com\/site\/2015\/04\/13\/the-ballroom-thieves-sound-big-at-abilene\/\">their show here a few years ago<\/a> and had this to say: &#8220;It begins with Earley\u2019s guitar work. Then sprinkle on the unique rhythms from Mauch and engaging cello work from Peters.\u00a0Layer upon that what might be this bands strongest attribute, their soaring 3-part harmonies. Working all together to perform the music they\u2019ve written, a varied collection of rockers, ballads, hymnals, barroom blues and on.&#8221; Can you think of a more perfect way to spend your Valentine&#8217;s Day?!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Ballroom Thieves - &quot;Oars to the Sea&quot; - Mountain Jam 2016\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZdN7vm9pvQQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Saturday, February 17<br \/>\n<strong>Critt&#8217;s Juke Joint @ Anthology<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Buffalo&#8217;s multi-instrumentalist Eric &#8220;Critt&#8221; Crittenden plays a fun mix of jazz, funk and soul he has dubbed &#8220;Soulprovisational.&#8221; His band, Juke Joint, is actually an ever-evolving, rotating cast of musicians. For this iteration he&#8217;s employed DJ Logic, Turkuaz&#8217;s Michael Carruba (drums) and Craig Broadhead (guitar), and Harry Graser on keys.

You&#8217;re forgiven if you&#8217;ve never heard of them. This will be their first show and there might not be many to follow. Dopapod is taking 2018 off from touring. Rob Compa, the guitarist, is keeping busy with other musical endeavors. He put together this Rochester supergroup of sorts (Paul McCardle: guitar \u2013 Doja, English Project, Will O\u2019Riley: keys- The Niche, Swooners, Tristan Greene: drums \u2013 Doja, Ocular Panther and Justin Rister: bass \u2013 Moho Collective) and right now the only two shows will be this one and one in Syracuse the next night. To find out more about how he put the band together and other things he&#8217;ll be up to on the break check out an <a href=\"https:\/\/nysmusic.com\/site\/2018\/01\/16\/rob-compa-announces-side-project-oval-sandwich-shows-in-syracuse-and-rochester\/\">interview he did with our own Pete Mason<\/a>.
