The Periodicals
WORT-FM always throws a good party, and its wintertime birthday bash is no exception. For its first in-person birthday concert post-COVID, WORT delivers a pair of bands which blend genres into distinctive brews all their own. Adem Tesfaye Band is led by the songwriter-singer-guitarist, who mashes up hip-hop, R&B and reggae. The Periodicals cook up pub rock and soul into a horn-laden stew that is good for you.
