Plying a poignant, rays-lit mix of roots rock, alt country and jamgrass music is Yarn from Brooklyn, helmed by singer, songwriter and guitarist Blake Christiana. John Oates co-wrote and appeared on two tracks in Yarn’s 2013 latest, Shine the Light On, and has given the sextet his seal of approval: “From the first time I heard Yarn perform at Music City Roots in Nashville I became a fan. They have one foot in the traditional sound of bluegrass and the other foot stepping into the future … Great playing, great singing and great songwriting, what more is there?”8 p.m., Dunedin Brewery, Dunedin, free admission.
