1) Shut the Folk Up and Listen at the Carnegie of Homestead Music Hall will feature two singer-songwriters performing separate, complete sets. One is Leo Kottke. A longtime resident of the Minneapolis area, he is arguably best known for his finger-picking style; unique baritone; and his 1969 album, 6- and 12-String Guitar (or The Armadillo Album after its cover artwork). Kottke’s last album, Sixty Six Steps, was his second collaboration with Phish bassist Mike Gordon. Keller Williams also joins the bill. The phrase “one-man jam-band” may appear oxymoronic, that is, until you see Williams live. The Virginia native often loops guitar, bass, and percussion while playing solo, creating the effect of a full band. However, Williams isn’t beneath asking for a little help from his friends. In addition to this tour, he has recorded and performed with numerous ensembles, such as bluegrass group The String Cheese Incident. This year, his Keller Williams KWahtro, a quartet, recently released a studio album titled Sync. 8 p.m. 510 E. 10th Ave., Munhall. (CM)
2) Unblurred: First Fridays on Penn features a variety of visual and performing arts at galleries, clubs, and restaurants along Penn Avenue (4800-5500) in the Garfield, Bloomfield, and Friendship neighborhoods. 6 – 10 p.m. Most events are free.
3) The Pens are playing a home game at PPG Paints Arena tonight against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Next up is an away game tomorrow against the St. Louis Blues. 7 p.m. 1001 Fifth Ave., Uptown.
