The Wallflowers in Concert at The Palace; Cultural District Gallery Crawl (Fri., 4/28/23)

1) The Wallflowers are of course led by Jakob Dylan, the talented son of the legendary Bob Dylan. The band has generated hits like “One Headlight,” “6th Avenue Heartache,” from their sophomore album Bringing Down the Horse  in 1996 and “Reboot the Mission” from their 2012 album, Glad All Over. After solo work and a continuing rotation of talent in The Wallflowers band, they are touring behind their latest album, 2021’s Exit Wounds. Dylan in an interview with American Songwriter, said of the album, “I was just also writing during a time when the world felt like it was falling apart. That changes the way you address even the simplest things, because you have panic in your mind all the time. You have anxiety. And you also have hope. And it’s all in there.” The Wallflowers will be joined at their Palace Theatre concert by special guest Jesse Malin. 8 p.m. 21 W. Otterman St. 

2) Gallery Crawl in the Cultural District is happening tonight; it features visual arts, musical performances, and interactive exhibits. All events are free and take place at a variety of galleries, art spaces, and venues. Some galleries offer drinks and hors d’oeuvres. What a great way to sample some of Pittsburgh’s great arts and entertainment! 5:30 – 10 p.m., Cultural District.
