The Jayhawks are touring again, and they’ll be in town for a show at George’s Sunday night. As Kevin Kinder pointed out in his feature on the band earlier this week, the New York Times once called them the best band you’ve never heard of. (You guys have heard of the Jayhawks, though, right?) Anyway, they released a new record last year, and they’ll be playing those tracks along with some classics (we hope) Sunday night. Tickets are $20 on George’s ticketing site.
