The Best Concerts in Miami This Week

A diverse artist lineup makes this week a good one to scope out new-school artists as you reminisce with the classics. Timeless queen Cher will bring her five decades of hits to the BB&T with Chic and Nile Rodgers on Saturday. Rick Springfield, Redman, and Arlo Guthrie will also play concerts in town this week. And if you’re looking for the new acts you’ll be listening to throughout 2019, look no further than Thursday’s RnBae showcase at Gramps.

Here’s your music calendar for January 14 through 20. Stay ahead of all upcoming shows with New Times‘ Miami concert calendar.
