If the jazz at Churchill's seems too pedestrian, go to the Arturo Sandoval Jazz Club (Deauville Beach Resort, 6701 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 305-403-7565, www.arturosandovaljazzclub.com), which will host multiple performances every week, including one by Kool and the Gang drummer Skip Martin on July 26.

Last there's the little-known Wallflower Gallery (10 NE Third St., Miami; 305-579-0069, www.wallflowergallery.com), an art venue that houses local musicians plus visual displays and open-mike poetry nights. Upcoming performances are a mixed batch that includes acoustic rocker Teri Catlin on July 7 and hip-hop artist Zeero the Lyrical Messiah on July 27.

It's true that Miami lacks enough musical steam to power seasonal concerts as epic as Coachella and Bonnaroo. But saying goodbye to summer with Hatebreed? We must be doing something right.
