Free Shawn Mullins Coming to Music Mill

Author: Jason Bean, Category: Concerts, Music Mill, Northwest Side, Special Events, Things To Do in Indy

I’m not sure exactly what it was about the song "Lullaby" released by Shawn Mullins back in 1998, but I absolutely loved it. It could have been that I was living in Nashville, TN at the time and there’s a little bit of a line about the city in the lyrics.

Shawn Mullins will be in concert at Music Mill up on the north side tomorrow night night.

The Atlanta native, who dipped into the pop charts with 1998’s "Lullaby" and earned a teen following by placing his "Shimmer" on the "Dawson’s Creek" soundtrack, has a very good train song of his own on his upcoming disc, "honeydew." Titled "See That Train," it seems to take Mullins on a trip into early Tom Waits territory. And it proves to be a journey worth taking.

Give yourself a great start to the weekend and take advantage of this free concert at Music Mill. Also performing, opening up the show is Jenn Cristy.

Over the Rhine Coming to Music Mill

One of the groups I’ve recently been introduced to is Over the Rhine. Their music, lyrics and melodies just seem to stick with me long after the audio itself has stopped coming from the speakers or headphones.

I was excited to come across the news that the group will be performing at the Music Mill off of 82nd Street on the north side of Indianapolis.

I haven’t gone to a concert at Music Mill yet so this would be a good opportunity for my first visit to this venue. I just checked at Ticketmaster and the tickets for their show are only $16 per person. Not too bad at all.
