| East
Coast hip hopper, hob-nobber and hottie spotter MIMS
has come a long way from his NYC borough upbringing
to reach his status as mega-producer, thug wrangler
and Bill Gates buddy (but give us a pop-star rapper
who hasn't "come a long way" through the rough life
and we'll show him or her the door). Perhaps best
known for his club single "This Is Why I'm Hot," MIMS
has finally unveiled his self-titled debut album,
Music Is My Savior (MIMS), and is ready to
roll on with a roadshow tour that MIMS describes as
just "feeling good, showing you everything I've been
through and that I've built no excuses for myself."
Check out MIMS at the McDonald Theatre as he tries
to wash himself clean of those straight A's he scored
in high school. Um, Mr. MIMS, show us why you're hot,
please! See Sunday Calendar.

| The
Shedd Institute's Now Hear This program for November
lands on our laps in one densely packed nutshell
of a week and features some of the world's premiere
performers of jazz, blues and roots music. Los
Angelino (by way of Seattle) Sara Gazarek
melds her pitch-perfect voice with a backing band
(including stunning jazz pianist Josh Nelson)
on Friday, while Oakland-based Mike Marshall
(pictured) & Choro Famoso fingerpick
their way through Latin jazz and classical standards
on Tuesday. Roots and blues maestro Alejandro
Escovedo picks things up on Wednesday for
a breezy slice of Americana (minus his song "Castanets,"
which the Austin, Texas-based Escovedo blacklisted
from performances since it was found on George
W. Bush's iPod playlist) while Englishman John
Mayall and his cast of cathartic Bluesbreakers
close out the week on Nov. 15 at the Jaqua Concert
Hall. See Calendar.

| Christiane
Noll: Fresh from Frankenstein,
she's headed for Eugene! Actually,
the soprano — who performed
to great local acclaim in the resurgent
Eugene Opera's Pirates of Penzance
last year — takes time out
from her run as Dr. Frankenstein's
love interest Elizabeth to sing
for us. Here's hoping Frankenstein's
monster doesn't come along. Her
"Art of the American Diva" program,
according to the curiously undetailed
press release, "will highlight favorite
soprano selections from opera, operetta,
musical theater, art song and jazz."
We like specifics, but we also like
our Broadway performers, so hey
— join us at one of the two
concerts she's giving at the Hult.
See Sunday Calendar.
