5 Shows to See this Weekend
Posted By Shannon Sweet on Fri, Oct 31, 2014 at 10:44 AM
Matisyahu (Friday, October 31)
Hasidic emcee Matisyahu has spent the last decade enlightening crowds with his brand of reggae–influenced hip-hop. In recent years, the beard has been trimmed and he’s distanced himself from his heritage, but his flow and inspiring lyricism continue to command his live shows. In the mid-aughts, songs like “One Day” and “King Without a Crown” propelled him into popular consciousness and have become concert staples. Fresh off the release of his fifth studio album Akeda, Matisyahu performs at the Tobin with support from SoCal reggae rockers Radical Something. $35, 8pm, Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, 100 Auditorium Circle, (210) 223-8624 —Erik Casarez
