7 p.m.            Czars 505
505 Pleasant St.
St. Joseph

One Eyed Doll caught my eye right away due to the great images on the group’s website. With a little more investigation, I discovered that the single, “Committed,” was produced by Sylvia Massy (Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Johnny Cash). Sounds like an artist who’s committed to doing it right from the start.

Collective Soul

Four Winds Casino

Its big debut album was mixed by Bob Clearmountain and the big breakthrough single contained the unlikely, almost spoken hook “yeah.” This band has proven what catchy songwriting with major label push can do. Another well-known pop/rock artist comes to New Buffalo.
