Ed. Note: Contributor Baylee Less and back with another handy list of live music in Memphis this month, this time with additional suggestions from fellow I Love Memphis writer Cat Evans. 

1. Journey, Bank Plus Amphitheater at Snowden Grove, Wednesday July 5th, $25 - $350, show at 7:30 p.m., all ages We never should have stopped believin’ in the return of Journey….because this July, they’re back. Head down to Snowden Grove for a night of inspiring rock and a mental trip back to the seventies. - Baylee

- 2. SUSTO, The Levitt Shell, Sunday July 9th, free, show at 7:30 p.m., all ages SUSTO, meaning “when your soul is separated from your body” in Spanish, formed out of inspiration from frontman Justin Osborne’s personal trip to Cuba. Based in Charleston, South Carolina, SUSTO calls their sound “alternative Americana”, but you can hear the Latin American influences woven throughout their parable-influenced lyricism. - Baylee 3. Particle Devotion / Sun Seeker / Crockett Hall, The Hi-Tone, Thursday July 13th, $7, show at 9 p.m., 18 and over Slow down your week with three Southern musical acts including headliners Particle Devotion, a wavy, indie band with electronic influences. Sun Seeker, a four-piece group of crooning soft rockers, and Crockett Hall, the Memphis-bred singer-songwriter, are set to open. - Baylee

4. The Suffers, The Levitt Shell, Thursday July 13th, free, show at 7:30 p.m., all ages Pack your picnic baskets and settle in on the Levitt Shell lawn for a night of “Gulf Coast soul” - at least that’s what how The Suffers describe their sound. With traces of soul, R&B, rock-n-roll, reggae, and hip-hop influences, no one can claim that this ten man band’s sound remains within the confines of one genre. - Baylee 5. The Outcry Debut, Hi-Tone, Thursday, July 13th, $7, doors at 8pm, 18+ From The Outcry’s event page for The Outcry Debut show: “[This] is an event to celebrate and debut [our] new passion project - with all new songs fierce against injustice and fast in tempo. We’ll combine visual art, spoken word, dance and all original jams to call it like they see it as the original band of indie soul.” - Cat 6. Kingpin Da Producer Presents Let's Get Loud, Memphis Slim House, Saturday, July 15th, $10, doors at 6pm, all ages Team #KingPin and Team #Dutch battle it out to see which team of beat creators is the best. Each team consists of local producers who will each play a track against the opposing team to see who comes out with the better beat, and the crowd decides. - Cat 7. Artistik Lounge feat. Carla and Courtney Barnes, Madison Dance Studio (inside Minglewood Hall), Sunday, July 16th, $10, doors open at 7pm, 18+ Fresh off of their five-year anniversary, Artistisk Lounge is back for another showcase of Memphis soul, hip hop, and more.

8. New Found Glory, The Hi Tone, Wednesday July 19th, $22 - $26, doors at 7 p.m., all ages Practice your best tongue-out face and head to the Hi-Tone to hear one of the raddest (my favorite) pop punk bands of the early 2000’s, New Found Glory. Compared to the likes of Good Charlotte and blink-182, these energetic performers will celebrate “20 Years of Pop-Punk” by playing their iconic albums, Catalyst and Sticks & Stones. - Baylee 9. A Walk On DaSkreet With CCDE, Hi-Tone, Friday, July 21st, $10-$15, doors at 7pm, 18+ Spend a night with local hip hop legend Jay Daskreet. The lineup includes high-energy rapper Jay, reggae group Chinese Connection Dub Embassy, the soul singers of Trifecta, and a cast of all-star special guests.

10. Kid Trails, Those Lavender Whales, and China Gate, Murphy’s, Sunday July 23rd, show at 8 p.m., 21 and over Enjoy the soothing strummy sounds of Kid Trails and the plucky Never Shout Never energy of Those Lavender Whales. You also won’t want to miss the opener of the bill, China Gate, a Memphis-bred indie rock band whose on-stage energy will make you want to dance. - Baylee 11. Cowboy Mouth, Lafayette’s, Friday July 28th, $20, show at 9 p.m., 21 and over The alternative rockers collectively known as Cowboy Mouth formed in the early 90’s to produce roots-infused guitar driven music. These New Orleanians will grace the stage of Lafayette’s and deliver foot-tapping tunes to the Blues City. - Baylee 12. Battle of the Bands, 1884 Lounge at Minglewood Hall, Saturday July 29th, $20, doors at 3 p.m., all ages Support St. Jude Children’s Hospital and enjoy the eclectic sounds of the emerging Memphis music scene. Six bands will compete for a contract with Old Dog’s Records, and Jeff Todd and the Delta Blues Band will close out the night.- Baylee 13. Support The Dream, 1524 Madison, Saturday, July 29th, $10, doors open at 8pm, 18+ Support The Dream, presented by YoYo Munie and CLE Events, is all about local hip hop artists. Among the “dreamers” include Sleepy J Barksdale, Da Ladie, Behind The Mask, Crisis901, Y.N.O.B. and more.
