Sound Advice: Live Music comes to A. Schwab's
Posted By Chris Davis on Thu, Jan 5, 2012 at 3:23 PM
Mike McCarthy, Memphis's multimedia provocateur, has gone to work for the historic Beale Street dry goods store and says he hopes to bring a little but of Midtown's eclectic rock scene to Beale Street.
"Assuming there are people going to Beale who are interested in that," McCarthy says.
The experiment kicks off with an Elvis birth-week show that includes performances by Amy LaVere and the Tramps, The Jason Freeman Band, The Memphis Dawls, McCarthy's uncle Dan the Man (from Tupelo), and his daughter Hanna Star.
"There may be a little nepotism there," McCarthy jokes. "Dan's a blue-eyed soul singer and will perform some Elvis songs."
The first A. Schwab's concert kicks off at 6 p.m. Saturday, January 7.
