Now Shreveport…don’t think I forgot you.
If you’re not following The Lovers, you’re missing out...and they’ve got two shows this week:

Friday, June 12 — 6:30 PM — Ki' Mexico (Shreveport)
Great food, killer vibe, and The Lovers bringing the soundtrack.

Saturday, June 13 — 8:30 AM — Shreveport Farmers' Market, Festival Plaza
Homemade jam + The Lovers jamming = a whole mood.
Breakfast tacos, fresh produce, local vendors, and live music?
That’s a perfect Saturday morning.

Great music.
Great food.
Great shopping.
All while supporting local.

Shreveport and surrounding communities…you know the play call. Show up, show out, and keep our Arklatex live music scene thriving.

For more than two years we have been fighting with Eastex Telephone Cooperative, Inc. over garbage internet. The only thing we have gotten out of them is an office staff that is more than rude and sometimes downright nasty, on top of being told for all that time that the issues were not their router (which they refused to replace until fiber was installed). The issues were never on their side, along with snide comments directed towards us. Then, being promised fiber by 1 January of this year, it finally came to a head yesterday, in which the office staff was yet again lacking in the customer service department. Now that fiber is finally here? Wouldn't you know it, it wasn't Facebook or our computers. It works perfectly now.
You honestly need to send your office staff or whoever answers your phone to classes, or find someone else to do that job, because they are downright disgusting most of the time, toss out excuse after excuse, and do virtually nothing to help customers.

You’re tuned in to AE Radio, the Arklatex’s late night heartbeat...and Longview, this one’s aimed straight at you.

Downtown Longview…get ready, because The Bourbon Alley is loading up a two night live music weekend that’s all flavor, all vibe, all energy.

Friday, June 5th at 7 PM
Jesica Peacock Music steps up first, and when she opens her mouth, the whole room stops.
Powerful vocals. Unforgettable style.
She’s the kind of artist who owns the stage from the first note to the last.

Saturday, June 6th at 7 PM
Darrin Morris Band rolls in with that fan favorite East Texas fire.
If you’ve ever seen him live, you already know...he draws a crowd, he delivers every time, and he turns a regular Saturday into a full blown event.

Two nights.
Two killer artists.
One downtown spot that knows how to treat you right.

Signature cocktails.
Live music.
A vibe you can’t fake.

📍 The Bourbon Alley

Shreveport…I know you’re tired.
Tired of the big box stations pushing shows in Vegas, Boston, or whatever’s happening on the moon instead of what’s happening right here at home.

So here’s the good news.
Hidden Tracks is rolling into the Tiki Bar & Grill next Saturday, May 30th, and they’re hitting that stage at 9 PM with enough voltage to remind your algorithm what real music sounds like.

We’re talking loud guitars, heavy hooks, and that punch you in the chest alternative energy the major outlets forgot existed.
If you’ve been craving a band that actually means it, this is your night.

Shreveport. Bossier. Arklatex.
You already know the play call...show up, show out, and keep pushing this live music scene into the next dimension…with or without the big outlets paying attention.

📍 The Tiki Bar & Grill - Shreveport
🎶 Hidden Tracks
⏰ Saturday, May 30 - 9 PM
