If you’re looking for music to shake you up, head to Cleveland to see Sweet Crude. The young 6-piece composed of New Orleans musicians is creating a sound that sets English and Louisiana’s native French dialect to decidedly non-Cajun music. You’ve heard some of their music on American Horror Story.
If it’s sweet and smoky Barbecue you’re after, head to Jackson for the Jacktown Throwdown Barbecue contest at the Mississippi Ag Museum. The Kansas City Barbecue Society presents the contest featuring teams from all over the country. All proceeds benefit local charities.
