Friday, Aug. 22 – Lord T and Eloise, Al Kapone, Two Way Radio, J.D. Reager and the Cold Blooded Three and Vending Machine. Emcee: Chris Vernon, host of “The Chris Vernon Show” on 730 Fox.

Saturday, Aug. 23 – Snowglobe, the Coach and Four, Antenna Shoes, Oh No! Oh My! and Royal Bangs. Emcee: Janet Wilson, host “Janet’s Planet” on WEVL, FM 89.9.

Tickets are on sale at Goner Records and Shangri-La in midtown and online at HiToneMemphis.com. Tickets for each night are $10, or tickets for both nights can be purchased together for $18. Cost to get in each show will be $10 at the door if tickets are available.

A limited number of supertickets will also go on sale for $100 each. Each superticket is good for both Hi Tone shows plus access to an exclusive barbecue reception for bands, sponsors and VIPs at Ardent Studios on Thursday, Aug. 21. The reception will feature a performance by the Subteens.
