The Stumblin’ Toads

Friday at the Hummingbird Stage and Taproom

The Stumblin’ Toads call Milledgeville home, so they are no newcomers to the Macon music scene. In fact, they have been making the rounds all over Georgia with their Southern rock ’n’ roll sound. Now that they’ve finally found time to spend with us in Macon, they are ready to present the release of their new EP and there’s no better place to do it than at the Hummingbird. 21 and up. 10 p.m. $5.

Planet Retro

Saturday at the Hummingbird Stage and Taproom

Sometimes you just wanna have fun. What better way to do it than with some ’80s music. Planet Retro knows how to deliver all the ’80s favorites, so all you have to do is call up all your friends and get ready for a dancing, sing-a-long, good time. Lace up your Reeboks. Put your pony tail to the side and break out the neon shirt because this party don’t stop. 21 and up. 10 p.m. $5.

Macon Tunes Authority Presents

Saturday at Roasted Cafe and Lounge

Four of Macon’s underground dance DJs take the stage at Roasted Cafe and Lounge on Saturday night thanks to the Macon Tunes Authority. Scott Harris, Wet Paint, Rhett Squirrelly and Vorheez provide a night of electronic dance sounds that will include house, funk, dub step, trap and more. 18 and up. 9 p.m. Free.

The Vespers

Sunday at Second Sunday in Washington Park

This installment of Second Sunday brings us the Vespers from Nashville. This folky, mountain music is sure to please, as sister vocalists provide rustic harmonics to accent the roots sound provided by their band. As always, Second Sunday at Washington Park is a free, family friendly event. Bring a blanket, lawn chair or picnic, but no grills or tents please. 1 p.m. Free.

DJ Roger Riddle

Thursday at the Rookery

DJ Roger Riddle is kicking off his series of shows called Roger Riddle Presents with a night called Dallas Jackson’s Soul Satisfaction. It’s a night of so much funk and soul music from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s that even Soul Train host Don Cornelius would have to sit down and wipe his forehead. Upcoming Thursdays he’ll present regional artists from the worlds of hip-hop, soul, DJs and more. 21 and up. 10 p.m. Free.
