1. Musical performances during openings at B2 Fine Art Gallery are nothing new, but the gallery is branching out into music in a big way with the first of a two-part series of art celebrating music. SPIN 1: American Vinyl Exhibition is the first of two shows with portraits of musicians in photography and paint augmented with vinyl records to buy, sell and trade; gallery talks and musical performances throughout the duration of the exhibition. This first show focuses on gospel, blues, country and folk, and includes art and photography celebrating giants of music from Woody Gutherie and Robert Johnson to Dylan. Check it out from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Read Alec Clayton's full feature on the show in the Music and Culture section.
2. We got a fever, and the only prescription is more ukulele. Olympia's biggest ukulele band, Uke Oyster Cult, will perform Americana, hapa-haole and sing-alongs from 7:30-9 p.m. at the Olympia Timberline Library.
3. The Kareem Kandi Band will fill the lobby of the Hotel Murano with jazz from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m.
4. Remember how excited you were when you learned the Tacoma Craft Beer Festival was moving to Cheney Stadium? Weekly Volcano food scribe Jackie Fender has the scoop on the Sept. 7 event in our Bars & Clubs section. Also damn exciting is the Tacoma Craft Beer Festival kickoff show featuring The Jilly Rizzo and The Brownsville Rhythm Combo performing at 8 p.m. in The Swiss.
5. Pre Funk Thursdays hip-hop show features SIC ILL, Don P, Awall, Shorte Ru and JUI at 9 p.m. in El Potrero on Tacoma's Eastside.
