They’ve probably played Fayetteville hundreds of times over the years, but these days, The Cate Brothers only get together a few times a year. One of those times happens to be Friday night this weekend, where the band will perform with Steve Pryor at George’s during happy hour. It’s always an event when they get together.
Local songwriter Dana Louise will perform at Fayetteville Underground’s Heartstrings series on Friday night. Tickets are $10 ($5 for UA students) and proceeds benefit the gallery.
Wanna watch a movie? Walton Arts Center is showing the holiday classic movie, Home Alone, in Baum Walker Hall Friday night. Admission is $5.
There’s a show at Backspace as well, with locals Sharp Woolston, The Jefferson Boat, and RD Mauzy, along with Atlanta band Elegant Bachelors.
