Music Calendar: April 27 – May 3

Looking for a show? Whatever you’re into, you can find it in Birmingham. If you’re into jazz, catch José Carr at High Dive this Thursday. Did you know he’s on the cover of a new book? An Alabama artist is releasing a collection of photos celebrating the state’s music, and you can learn more and help make it happen.

In fact, the Lakeview Marina (where High Dive and Seasick Records is now) has several events this week., including the JamAID benefit for FAID and the Firehouse Community Arts Showcase. Here’s this week’s live music in Birmingham:
