Jackson Indie Music Week

Called the "fastest-growing indie music festival in the South," the Jackson Indie Music Week returns to the "Birthplace of American Music" in downtown Jackson, Mississippi. It's worth the trip to experience seven days of concerts, showcases, panels, and parties—featuring every genre from classic rock to EDM to the good old Delta blues. Headliners include Vae, 5th Child, Alfred Banks, Maleah Dawn, and Ray Kincaid. $40 for an all-events pass. jxnindiemusic.com.
