The ethos behind the show encourages listeners to follow their bodies, feel the pulse, and tune in to messages from the natural world. The tour highlights her debut album, nature is healing, which explores connection over escapism through cutting-edge electronics that glide from balearic and electroclash to meditative downtempo, euphoric house, and pounding gabber. The project features contributions from A.G. Cook, Nomak, Casey MQ, Margo XS, Elof Loelv, FREE Jimi, Suena, and close collaborator Luvhuntah, and it weaves in recordings of animals, global percussion, accordion, and pan flute to underscore themes of interconnection and belonging.

    Mastodon

    Atlanta · The Eastern, 777 Memorial Drive SE

    Presented by Zero Mile Presents, Mastodon headlines The Eastern in Atlanta with Deafheaven and Alcest. This event is open to all ages. The Atlanta-born quartet of Brann Dailor, Brent Hinds, Bill Kelliher, and Troy Sanders has stayed together for over two decades, channeling personal loss and hard-earned perseverance into music that continually pushes heavy rock forward. Their double album Hushed and Grim, created in memory of their late manager Nick John, stretches to 88 minutes and blends surging metal with reflective, emotionally direct songwriting. Produced by David Bottrill, it includes contributions from Marcus King, Kim Thayil, and Jody Sanders, and threads influences that range from post-hardcore to Southern rock. Mastodon helped redefine modern metal with albums like Leviathan and later earned a Grammy for Best Metal Performance with Sultan’s Curse, with Emperor of Sand also receiving a Best Rock Album nomination and its lead single breaking into the upper reaches of the Mainstream Rock chart. Their work has crossed into television, film, and comics, yet it is on stage where massive riffs, seismic bass, and intricate drumming meet melodic vocals and unguarded lyricism. Deafheaven and Alcest round out a bill that showcases expansive, heavy sounds from across the spectrum.

    Farmers Market

    Atlanta · Atlantic Station, 1380 Atlantic Dr NW

    Free

    A producer focused farmers market at Atlantic Station operates alongside the long running Creator’s Market, now in its tenth year. It connects farmers, growers, and food makers with residents who want direct access to the people behind their food. The recent closure of the Publix at Atlantic Station has left thousands of people within the 138 acre neighborhood without convenient, walkable options for fresh produce, meats, eggs, bread, and everyday staples. Add nearby Midtown and Westside communities and steady weekend foot traffic that brings roughly nine million visitors each year, and the result is strong demand from potential repeat customers. Offerings emphasize fruits and vegetables, meat, poultry and eggs, dairy and cheeses, breads and baked goods, honey, preserves and sauces, along with flowers, fresh drinks, teas, specialty foods, and more. Additional product categories may be accommodated within the farmers market or the broader Creator’s Market that happens each weekend. The vendor rate is $39, and vendors may be able to participate for the full hours of the Creator’s Market, with further details available online.

Admission is free, and all are welcome. Copies of Girl to Country will be available for purchase. The book continues the story that began with Girl to City, catching up after the success of Diary of a Mod Housewife as Rigby trades New York for Nashville. It follows her efforts to keep touring while taking temp jobs, raising a child, and keeping a car on the road, all while learning to rely on inner confidence over outside approval. Themes include sustaining a creative life into one’s forties and later, balancing parenthood with ambition, and the ways love can unsettle or support that balance. Rigby is a veteran presence in American underground and indie music, combining the sharp storytelling of country and folk with classic rock songcraft and a punk DIY spark. She came up in New York with the bands Last Roundup and the Shams before launching a solo career with Diary of a Mod Housewife, followed by albums including Hang In There With Me. Her first memoir, Girl to City, was published in 2019.

    Protect Your Light Workshop: Spiritual Hygiene for Healers

    Atlanta · Healing Hands Reiki & Spiritual Development, 27 Waddell St NE

    Protect Your Light is an immersive spiritual hygiene workshop created for healers, empaths, and energy workers who want to fortify their own energy through cleansing, protection, and self-sovereignty practices rooted in ancestral and holistic traditions. With guided, hands-on work in time-honored rituals and modern techniques, the experience supports clarity, balance, and alignment so you can show up grounded in every healing space. Participants explore how to build a living relationship with their ancestors through offerings, prayer, and altar tending that anchor and protect their path. Care for the Ori, the inner divine consciousness associated with the crown, is emphasized through daily practices such as head coverings, affirmations, guided meditation, and cleansing to keep the mind clear and purpose aligned. The art of spiritual bathing is taught using herbs, oils, salts, and focused intention, and everyone creates a personalized blend while learning the meaning behind each ingredient. Candle work is covered from color selection to anointing, adding herbs, and setting intentions for healing, protection, and manifestation, creating a focused channel for spiritual guidance. Grounding and energy alignment practices help reinforce sovereignty over mind, body, and spirit while shielding from external influences. Participants also craft and speak personal spiritual decrees and affirmations that call upon ancestors, guides, and divine forces for protection and the strengthening of the energetic field. Attendees leave with practical skills for cleansing and protection, a deeper connection with ancestors and guides, a custom bath and candle recipe, daily tools to honor the Ori, and confidence in spiritual authority and alignment. This workshop serves Reiki practitioners, energy healers, yoga teachers, spiritual coaches, and anyone seeking reliable methods to maintain energetic purity and protection. Protect your light, honor your Ori, and stand in your power. Your energy is sacred, keep it clear, sovereign, and strong. The workshop is facilitated by Tiffany N. Monroe, B.S., M.A., Ed.S, Founder and CEO of Healing Hands Reiki & Spiritual Development, Inc., a Usui/Holy Fire III and Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki Master Teacher, Sekhmet and Seichim Master Teacher, member of the Reiki Healing Association, the Reiki Members Association, and the International Association of Reiki Professionals, an Ashtanga Yoga student and assistant at Ashtanga Yoga Atlanta, RYT500, meditation facilitator, biochemist and product developer, educator at secondary and university levels, and an ordained minister.

    Athens · Georgia Museum of Art, 250 River Rd

Through demonstrations and individualized feedback, artists develop technical skills and a stronger understanding of form. Graves specializes in portrait and figure painting and also has experience in sculpture, including metal casting and clay. He is a graduate of the University of Georgia with a bachelor of fine arts in sculpture and a minor in drawing and painting. The program is full, and a waitlist is available.

    Atlanta · 1 Galambos Way

    Jay Leno delivers an evening of standup centered on quick, clean jokes that steer clear of politics and lectures. A comedian, television host and writer, he built his career with years of intensive club work, performing about 300 nights annually before taking over The Tonight Show on NBC, which he hosted until 2014. He received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in 2014 and now leads the Emmy-winning series Jay Leno's Garage, showcasing his extensive car collection, car-to-car comparisons and his automotive know-how. This show spotlights his joke-first style and clean humor.
