Thursday’s Lowdown

Q: Does Arcata have three Thursday night shows competing for your almost weekend attention? A: You bet your sweet bippy: 

  • Mark Farina, Arcata Theatre Lounge: Every time this guy comes to Humboldt we relook up “mushroom jazz” — the genre Farina fancies himself the king of — only to be reminded that he invented it. Dammit. Here, you look it up.
  • The Blakes, HumBrews: Every time this band comes to town we have to hear about how they ooze sex, rawness and rock purity (and that they stayed at Jennifer Savage’s house once). They’re like the world at-large’s version of The Trouble. Hey, guess who’s opening?
  • Scott Pemberton Trio, Jambalaya: Every time these guys come to town … well, maybe they’ve never been here. So below is what they look like on YouTube.
