Beloved nightclub 3rd and Lindsley is celebrating its 35th birthday this year, and Friday’s bill featuring Jimmy Hall and the Prisoners of Love and The Pat McLaughlin Band is part of the ongoing celebration. Both groups have been playing the venue for decades — former Wet Willie frontman Hall and his band first played the club in 1993 when the stage was still in the front window. In addition to being an accomplished saxophonist and harmonica player, Hall is one of the most soulful vocalists in Nashville music history. In addition to releasing a series of solo albums over the years, most recently 2022’s superb Ready Now, he toured and recorded with legendary rock guitarist Jeff Beck off and on for three decades. Friday night, Hall and the Prisoners of Love — guitarist Kenny Greenberg, bassist Ted Pecchio and drummer Lynn Williams — will perform material from across his career, including his work with Beck. “I’m excited about getting back to 3rd and Lindsley, because it is one of my favorite venues in town,” Hall tells the Scene. “We’ve had some great shows there.” McLaughlin and his band will take the stage first, followed by Hall and his band. “Then after that, we might do some jamming,” Hall says.
7:30 p.m. at 3rd and Lindsley
