February is the month of love, and that includes our love of live music. Here are seven must-see shows coming to Salt Lake City this month.
Friday, February 13
Who: Cyril Neville w/ King Youngblood
Where: The State Room
What: I spoke with Cyril, one of the last living Neville Brothers, when he was at home in Louisiana. He told me, “This is a very special tour, not just because I’ll be with my son Omari and his band, but I’ll also be with my nephew, King Youngblood. We’re bringing a message of love, peace, and togetherness. Anytime you see a second line, it’s a celebration of life. Slow music is played at the beginning, but when they cut loose the body, everybody’s rejoicing for that person’s life. That’s what we bring. We bring all that joy.” More of that conversation will be published very soon…
