Pop into the Warhol tonight

Puns are great.

Anyway, Paul Simon’s son, Harper--who, apparently, did not actually accompany his father on travels through the Mississippi Delta, which shined like a national guitar, at age 9--will, presumably, be following a river down a highway through the arguable cradle of the French and Indian War this evening to perform at the Andy Warhol Museum. Simon’s self-titled, self-produced, self-released solo debut is recently out and has garnered some pretty favorable reviews.

Not sold? Tonight’s opener is local neo-folk songstress Emily Rodgers, who has a recent release of her own out on Misra Records, home to Will Johnson and Hallelujah the Hills and formerly home to Phosphorescent and Great Lakes Swimmers.

Price of admission: $12. Sol(i)d.

Jilted Brides At The Warhol Friday

We’re a little behind the curve on this one, but given our mission we’d be slipshod not to mention the Jilted Brides’ CD release party this Friday at the Warhol. The City Paper and POP City both recently covered the Australian transplants, so we’ll just point you there:

POP City – Jilted Brides: From Australia to Pittsburgh
