I'm always on the hunt for some good shows nearby that I can ride my bike to and just enjoy some chill tunes. e summer is the perfect time for everyone to have a bit more room in their schedule for some local shows. is month, I've found a few shows all over Harrisburg to fit your music needs. Each of these acts brings its own unique creative energy to the local stage for us to enjoy. Whether you want some relaxing folky tunes or some swinging jazz or innovative alt rock, we've got the sound you're looking for. MIRAH, 6/1, 7PM, THE UNDERGROUND BIKE SHOP, $10: e Underground Bike Shop is at it again with some killer concerts this summer. Brooklyn native Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn is set to headline the show with locals Justin Arawjo and Bea Troxel opening for the evening. Mirah's sound has been reviewed by Pitchfork, praising her "incredible voice—a versatile coo that can flit from low, sultry tones to high, airy falsetto in one breath." She has been making independent pop music since the late 1990s with a number of collaborators. If you listen to anything by her, you have to hear her song "Jerusalem," a fan favorite. e lyrics are hard-hitting and relevant and her soothing, melodic voice draws listeners into her lyrical landscapes. LORI FULTON AND THE LOVE, LORI ORCHESTRA, 6/9, 8PM, RIVER CITY BLUES CLUB, $9-$12: No doubt, this show is going to bring the house down. Lori's voice packs an explosive punch, described by some as "honey-coated dynamite." Harrisburg born and raised, Lori Fulton started singing professionally at the age of 15 with her uncle Ronnie Waters, a jazz trumpet player. At 24, she landed a record deal with Motown with her single "Dreamin," and over the years, has worked with many artists such as Phyllis Hyman and Patti LaBelle, providing lead and backing vocals. Completing her jazzy, soulful ensemble for the night are the Love, Lori Orchestra, which is comprised of pianist Alex Posmontier, bassist Shane Adam Asserud, and drummer Issaya Rouson-Whitesides. Prepare for a powerfully emotional concert filled with some jazz standards, Motown soul and love ballads—a great variety to make heart melt and hips swing. FATALLY YOURS, 6/24, 9PM, H*MAC STAGE ON HERR, $10: H*MAC knows how to do alternative rock shows well, and Fatally Yours is no exception. is band started as a project of Keith ompson, formerly involved with Bleed the Dream in Los Angeles. After contacting his longtime friend and guitarist Christian Rivera, they discovered that they shared a desire to make music together and immediately set out to do it. Upon Rivera's return to the United States from the Army, the two set out to start the project that became known as Fatally Yours. is group grew to popularity in the Baltimore area and has been spreading and expanding their sound since. Filling out the rest of the band are drummer Justin Posner, vocalist Billy Fisher and guitarist Chuck Moore. e group has won 98 Rock (WIYY ) Band of the Month in May 2013 and Shockwave Magazine Band of the Month around the same time.
