HistoryMiami’s new exhibit, “Miami Rocks: The Miami Pop Festival, May 1968,” on display May 18 through September 30, pays homage to the vital role Miami played during a pivotal era in American music history. Michael Lang, the promoter behind Woodstock, also organized the Miami Pop Festival. He would later go on to say that “the seeds of Woodstock were sown” here.
Summer concert season is heating up with not one, but two South Florida shows by Justin Timberlake this week and a Saturday-night performance by Maluma at the American Airlines Arena. Ellen Allien will hit the decks at Floyd with Rex the Dog this Friday night, and New Found Glory will headline a benefit for the victims and survivors of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.
Before summer temperatures arrive in full force, head outdoors this week to get some exercise, catch some rays, and enjoy live music. Locos por Juana will ease your hump-day blues with a free concert in Brickell, the newly opened GeckoParX and Paddletopia will host creative ways to get active, and the Key Largo Original Music Fest will offer four days of some of the nation’s finest independent songwriters.

Cole, Travis Scott, and Future.
This week’s free events are all about reaching out to connect Miami’s diverse communities. A concert at the Wynwood Yard aims to bring together audiences of different backgrounds and genre preferences; panels at Nova and the Miami Workers Center will discuss the threats facing marginalized communities in America; and ongoing Haitian Heritage Month events celebrate the pride and traditions of Miami’s Haitian community.
“Two more spine injections and then I’m free.” That is not a text a writer typically receives before interviewing a musician, but there’s nothing illicit about the message. The man sending it is Dr. Jay Kuchera. He plays guitar for the blues-jam-rock-bluegrass-melding band the String Assassins, which will rock the Ford Stage at SunFest this Saturday, May 5.
Cinco de Mayo celebrations, Fort Lauderdale Air Show, Star Wars Day, and more of the best things to do in Miami this weekend, May 4 through 6.
It’s a great week for rock ‘n’ roll fans in Miami. Queens of the Stone Age will hit Bayfront Park Tuesday night, and local heavyweights Viniloversus, Heavy Drag, and SunGhosts will play at venues around town this week. But it can’t all be good news. Bhad Bhabie — AKA the “Cash Me Ousside” girl — somehow milked her 15 minutes of talk-show fame into a show at the Hangar. If you’re paying for that one, it’s on you.
It’s only Monday, but let’s cut to the chase: You’re already planning for Saturday’s Cinco de Mayo festivities. Before you start slamming tequila shots, slow down and celebrate Star Wars Day at Miami’s own Star Wars-themed brewery, J. Wakefield. And once you’ve recovered, wind down at the Little Haiti Book Festival or take your pet to Woofstock at the Barnacle Historic State Park.

There is no logical reason for the Eagles to be playing onstage to a stadium crowd of tens of thousands of people each night in 2018. The seminal rock band has been through breakups, disputes, lawsuits, and, most critically, the untimely death of founding member and integral songwriter Glenn Frey in January 2016.
Miami’s genre-bending Nu Deco Ensemble is on the cusp of closing its third season, but before the musicians move on to forthcoming projects, they’re taking a step back in time with indie-pop singer-songwriter and violinist Kishi Bashi for the world premiere of Improvisations on EO9066 at the New World Center.
