Are you a self-described music nerd? Do you love to connect with others about your love of music? If so, CityBeat is launching a new club that will be right up your alley.
The CityBeat Music Club, launching in November, is like a book club, but for music lovers. Each month, members will listen to two albums — a national album and an album by a local musician — and discuss them at the monthly CityBeat Music Club meetings.
Along with discussions about each album, the musician or band behind the local album will also be present at that month’s meeting to discuss the inspiration and story behind the album.
The CityBeat Music Club will be held on the first Wednesday of every month from 7-8 p.m. at Alien Records in Over-the-Rhine. The club will be hosted by myself, CityBeat Editor-in-Chief Ashley Moor-Mahoney, and CityBeat music writer Brent Stroud.
The first edition of the CityBeat Music Club will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 5 from 7-8 p.m. at Alien Records. We will be discussing Neon Grey Midnight Green by Neko Case and Strange Devotion by Cincinnati musician Maura Weaver. Weaver will be present at the meeting to discuss her album.
