Son Volt in Concert at Mr. Smalls; Chamber Music Pittsburgh Presents NAT 28 at James Gallery (Tues., 4/4/17)

1) Alt-country band Son Volt is led by former Uncle Tupelo’s frontman Jay Farrar. When they first formed in 1994, half the band was from Minneapolis and the other half was from St. Louis, so they used both cities as an initial base of operation. Their first album, 1995’s Trace, was on many Best Album lists for 1995. The band has released nine albums and is currently touring in support of its latest release, Notes of Blue. Special guest is Anders Parker. 8 p.m. Mr. Smalls Funhouse 400 Lincoln Ave., Millvale. 

2) Chamber Music Pittsburgh continues their new Pittsburgh Performs series. Tonight’s program features contemporary music ensemble NAT 28 performing a program of works from diverse composers of Iranian, Chickasaw, and Jordanian heritage at the James Gallery. Conflict Kitchenwhose mission it is to serve food from nations the U.S. is in conflict with, will be supplying their food at the event. This is a pay-what-you-want event with a suggested donation of $20. The ticket price includes food. 7 p.m. 413 S. Main St., West End.
