Hip in Detroit's Picks for the Weekend: August 26-28

Friday, August 26th - S.U.B. Release Show @ Outer Limits Lounge: It has been quite a while since we've heard from Some Uncoordinated Bastards, but they're back and they have some new tunes! They are celebrating the release of their new CD this Friday night at Outer Limits Lounge. Joining them are 
Blank Tape Tax, the Lowcocks, and Lilly Livers. Cover is $10 and the music starts at 8 p.m.

Friday, August 26th - PJ's End of an Era Party #1: In case you haven't heard, PJ officially has sold the Lager House and it truly is an end of an era. Before he officially leaves the building, he's throwing a few parties (that we are sure will be epic) and the first one is this Friday night! The lineup for the End of an Era Party #1 includes The Zotz, The Firewalkers, The Chris Casello Trio, The Cheetahs, and Timmy's Organism. Cover is FREE and the fun starts at 7 p.m. Don't miss it! 

Saturday, August 27th SW Fest: SW Fest returns to Southwest Detroit this Saturday! The fest will start out in the streets during the day, then moves inside The Senate Theater at night. The event will feature over 40 performers and 70 vendors. Admission is free. Head to 6424 Michigan Ave. between 2 p.m. - 11 p.m. to get in on the fun! 

Saturday, August 27th - Clawson Fest: Sean Nasrey, Sean Dunlop, and their team have been hard at work planning the second annual Clawson Fest! This free, family fun event will feature live music, craft food, local artisans, and a kids zone. The bill includes The Bob Mervak Trio, Strange Heart, and Oak City Roots! It's all happening in the parking lot located at 43 S. Main St. in Downtown Clawson from 3-9 p.m. this Saturday.

Saturday, August 27th - Break Anchor @ Cadieux Cafe: Summer may be winding down, but there's still time to get in a few more outdoor shows! This Saturday night, Cadieux Cafe will be bringing Break Anchor to their outdoor stage along with The Mushmen and Killer Diller. Cover is $10 and the fun starts at 7 p.m.

Saturday, August 27th & Sunday, August 28th - Hazel Park Art Fair: Spend the afternoon in Green Acres Park in Hazel Park either Saturday or Sunday this weekend and shop with local artists while you listen to some live music. The Hazel Park Art Fair is one of the best art shows in town in our opinion, with a similar feel to DIY or DUCF, but on a smaller scale. The fair is free to attend and is from 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Sunday.
