Get the funk rolling with G. Love and Special Sauce, who are bringing their highly unique blues-infused hip-hop to City Hall. With seven albums to their name, the band is experienced and well-regarded; their newest album, "Lemonade," features a variety of contributors, including Ben Harper and Jack Johnson. The doors open at 8 p.m., tickets $20.

American badass Kid Rock teams up with Allman Brothers legend Dickey Betts and his band, Great Southern, in what should prove to be an unforgettable show. Each can certainly call himself a "Ramblin' Man"; Betts has been working hard the last five years on Great Southern since his tenure with the Allmans ended, and Kid Rock is busily promoting a new album, "Rock 'n' Roll Jesus." The concert starts at 8 p.m. at the Sommet Center, balcony seats $22.50.

Don't miss the Southern alt-rock quintet Sister Hazel as they play the Wildhorse Saloon at 6 p.m. this evening. The band is touring hot on the heels of their independent release "Absolutely," unveiled last October. Be sure to snag a general admission ticket for $20, and stick around at least past "All For You."

Check out Blameshift, a post-hardcore band from Long Island who have enjoyed a whirlwind series of successes since their debut album was released this past May. The band already has been a participant in several major music festivals, notably the 2006 Warped Tour. No need break the bank, though; a general admission ticket can be scored for as little as $5. The show kicks off at 8 p.m.

Monday, March 3
Robin Trower may be racking up the years, but the soul of his music remains the same. Don't miss a live performance of his epic "Too Rolling Stoned." Advance tickets for the 9 p.m. show at The Cannery are a bargain at $25.

Tuesday, March 4
Head out to the Schermerhorn Center for a little Irish folk, courtesy of the internationally renowned Chieftains. The band has accumulated six Grammys and millions of fans over the course of their 45-year career, but they have not strayed from the traditional Irish sound that makes their music so engaging. The tickets aren't cheap, though; be prepared to shell out $75 for a main floor seat. The evening begins at 7 p.m.

Wednesday, March 5
Whether you've been to the Bluebird or not (but especially if you haven't), take a look at folk artist Malcolm Holcombe, who specializes in a wide array of blues and old-time country styles. His virtuosity with a number of instruments and hillbilly persona earned him a minor role in "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Reserve yourself a seat by 9 p.m., tickets $12.
