Lollapalooza 2023 Lineup Rumors and Headliner Predictions
The Best Concerts In St. Louis This Week: February 29 March 6
Lucero w/ Boy Golden8 p.M. Thursday, February 29. Old Rock House, 1200 South Seventh Street. $30. 314-588-0505.There have been many genre tags applied to Lucero's music over the years: cowpunk, alt-country, Southern-tinged rock, country-punk, and on and on. All of those descriptors are more or less accurate, but the truth is, the soulful Memphis band's sound would smell as sweet no matter the moniker, as a torturously mangled version of the saying goes. Ben Nichols and Co. Have been at it for going on three decades now, earning a reputation as one of the hardest-working bands in the business through a relentless touring schedule and a sizable discography mostly self-released through the group's own label. The band's latest, last year's Should've Learned by Now, delivers the same reliably twangy working-class anthems that fans have come to expect over the years, and was a critical hit as well, with Pitchfork awarding it a 7.5 and dubbing it "an endearing, impassioned album about drinking and the many reasons we do it." (The publication opted for the simple genre tag of just "rock," for what it's worth.) This week's St. Louis stop is one of many Lucero has graced us with over the years, with the Gateway City serving as a reliable outpost for the band, thanks largely to the efforts of the Twangfest set. Expect a packed and rowdy show.Good as Gold: Winnipeg's Boy Golden, the alter ego of Liam Duncan, who previously put in time with the pop-punk act the Middle Coast and whose website describes him as the "founder, minister, and principal songwriter at the Church of Better Daze," will open the show with a potent mix of blues- and country-tinged tunes.

Keyshia Cole.
Keyshia Cole w/ Trey Songz, Jaheim, K. Michelle8 p.M. Friday, March 1. Chaifetz Arena, 1 South Compton Avenue. $72.50 to $132.50. 314-977-5000.Keyshia Cole is a woman of many talents, a multi-hyphenate with a slew of movie and television credits to her name in addition to a discography that is packed with classic albums. But it's the latter for which she could fairly be described as a living legend, with numerous awards and accolades and the title of "Princess of Hip-Hop Soul" bestowed upon her by critics. Blessed with an incredibly powerful and flexible voice that's as soulful as it is sultry, the gifted soprano has carved out a considerable name for herself in the R&B world over the years, having worked with everyone from John Legend to Missy Elliott to Juicy J to Diddy throughout her storied career. She's an expert at delivering songs of empowerment, heartbreak, jealousy and love, citing Mary J. Blige as her greatest musical inspiration and counting Tupac Shakur as an early mentor. Put plainly, Cole is a master of heartfelt baby-making music of the highest order, and it's a fair bet that St. Louis will see a sudden spike in its population nine months after Friday's show.First Things First: Opening the show will be like-minded artists Trey Songz, Jaheim and K. Michelle. None of the above will do anything to stem that tide of newborns, rest assured.THURSDAY 29Axis: Sova: w/ Subtropolis, Boreal Hills 8 p.M., $10-$13.

Feb. 27—The Young Voices of the Santa Fe Opera will join students from Florida International University for "¡Voces Unidas!"
Slated for 2 p.M. Saturday, March 2, at St. Francis Auditorium in the New Mexico Museum of Art, the free concert will feature 21 young musicians.
The Santa Fe program was created in 2008 to encourage, nurture and guide high school students showing talent, desire and potential for singing classical music.
For the second year in a row, the SFO has partnered with the young musicians from Florida International University in residency.
"There was a desire to cross-pollinate a creative and cultural exchange," said Amy Owens, Young Voices director. "Education is the main goal."
"We'll be doing workshops about auditioning, about careers," she continued.
Program participants receive voice lessons and musical coaching by the Santa Fe Opera's music staff, as well as training in diction, music theory and basic acting. Students also participate in master classes by visiting guest artists, attend cultural events and have multiple opportunities to gain performance experience through studio classes, community engagement activities and public performances.
"With my students, it became clear that collaboration with the Young Voices program was the best step forward," Owens said. "It was a great opportunity for peer mentorships, opportunities for students singing with persons one level above them."
The concert program features arias by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Domenico Scarlatti and Antonín Dvoräk and choral music by Giuseppe Verdi and Mozart.
The Young Voices students are selected by application and auditions, Owens said. Staff members choose a maximum of 18 students in ninth through twelfth grade from September through May.
A former Santa Fe Opera apprentice, Owens starred in "Sweet Potato Kicks the Sun" in 2019.
"I was Sweet Potato," she said with a laugh. "Santa Fe and the city of Santa Fe has invested a lot in me and by bringing this to a full circle moment for me to be able to contribute back to the community."
