The next show happening at Springfield house venue The Radon Lounge is actually this Sunday, March 5th in less than one week. The creative basement space is mixing things up once again and will this time be featuring the paintings of a local artist – Amanda Greive up on their walls on display, and also some Baklava goodness from local restaruant Yanni’s Gyros. In addition to all of that of course there will be some music bands performing. This includes “Eward + Jane“- a touring duo from Chattanooga, Tennessee. Also playing this one is Alex & The XOs from Bloomington, Illinois. We actually have some of their music streaming on the player below. The third act on the bill here is “Kneller” – a new indie rock band in Springfield that we know nothing about!

Check out a facebook event for this show right here. Things are kicking off Sunday at 7:00 pm and admission is $5. If you don’t know where The Radon is, you better look into their website and ask them! Also check out our Springfield shows page for a list we try to keep updated of shows happening in town outside of Black Sheep.

Time to for us to tell you about the next show that is happening over at Springfield basement venue The Radon Lounge! This one is happening on Saturday, January 21st and we do not have any shows lined up at Black Sheep for that night so we can all go. For this show the lounge has great musical act Rebecca Rego & The Trainmen lined up from Champaign, Illinois. You can stream some of their music on the player below. In addition to that they also have solo artist Ben Bedford from the area performing. Looks like there is also a solo performance by Mike Butler (of Vonne and Starlorde). How nice. And The Radon Lounge appears to be mixing things up a bit for this one and featuring poetry peformed by Johari Idusuyi! And there is also a book performing! Cosmic Fate by Jonathan A Meyer will be taking the big stage!

All of that over at The Radon Lounge will be starting at 7:00 pm that night for just $5. For The Radon Lounge’s secret location you will have to dig around their website a little bit.

Our friends over at Springfield house venue The Radon Lounge are once again throwing their big annual “Christmas Explosion” and this time we don’t have anything planned that night at Black Sheep so we can all make it out. The Christmas Explosion this year is this upcoming Friday the 16th and it will also be a celebration of five years of The Radon Lounge putting on shows in Springfield. We have our Ugly Christmas Sweater show happening the next day on the 17th and the Black Sheep Holiday Show happening the following week on Friday the 23rd. The lineup for The Radon Lounge’s Christmas Explosion this year features Timbre – the Harpist from Nashville returning to The Radon Lounge. Check out some of her music streaming on the player below. Also on this show is the shoegaze act from Lincoln, Illinois also familiar to the Radon – Hushpad. Also is the folk duo The Dandelion Pickers. We have also be told that the Springfield “Uketopians” will be closing out the night with some Christmas Ukulele tunes.

With this show being at The Radon Lounge, you can also expect some food and hot chocolate and arcade games of some sort. Things kick off over there at 6:00 pm and admission is $5. If you don’t know where the Radon Lounge is you can inquire on their website. Also find a facebook event for this one right here.

The Radon Lounge are of course keeping it up with their monthly shows hosted in their basement venue and they have recently announced their plans for November with this show happening on Saturday, November 19th. Yes, this is the same night as the Black Sheep Band Lotto, but we figured it’s important to let you know what’s going on in town so that you can decide where to go and what to do! For this show The Radon has Red Sweater Lullaby returning from Las Vegas, Nevada. You can stream some of that project’s music below, which also performed at The Radon Lounge a couple of years back. Then coming from St. Louis is an acoustic artist, Kevin Schlereth who also played at The Radon Lounge for one of their earlier shows. Up before that is Chris Bernstorf performing some spoken word and Keyoung from Columbus, Ohio. Opening things up looks like a performance by Brandon Austin who has set up a couple of hip hop shows at Black Sheep in the past.

That show at The Radon starts at 7:00 pm and is $5. You can check out a facebook event for that one right here. Check out the Radon Lounge’s website for more info on them as well as where you can find out their secret location. Also check out our Springfield shows page which is sometimes updated with shows going on in town outside of Black Sheep.

The Radon Lounge are keeping very busy, and have just announced their next show happening next month on Saturday, March 26th. This one is surely going to be bananas (see flier above). There are four acts performing. One is Radon favorite Von Strantz, the indie/folk duo. Then the touring act on the bill is Nathan Stiteler from Nashville, Tennessee. You can stream some of Nathan’s music on the player below. Also on the bill is Springfield video game rock band Like… With Jetpacks who we have not seen at a Springfield show in a minute. And it looks like shoegaze band Hushpad will be opening the show up.

The show will start at 7:00 pm over at The Radon Lounge (email radonlounge@gmail.com if you need the address) and admission is $5. You can find a facebook event for the show right here. There might be something going on earlier in the day at Black Sheep, but you have no reason not to go to both events! Expect an announcement for what we’ve got going on that day soon!
