Returning for its third year, @molten_plains Fest,

Returning for its third year, @molten_plains Fest, which builds upon a monthly series, is scaling back just a tad for this edition — only a single day, instead of multiple days — but the overall focus is no less ambitious.

On Saturday, December 14, Denton’s Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studios will once again showcase “the spirit of adventurous music and further sounds,” per festival organizers Ernesto Montiel and Sarah Ruth Alexander.

Eight sets featuring 20 artists hailing from 10 different cities will unfold at @rgrsdentontx, pulling from an array of eclectic genres — everything from free jazz to field recordings will be on hand to sample.

In seemingly no time, bluegrass singer-songwriter

In seemingly no time, bluegrass singer-songwriter @billystrings has become one of music’s most formidable guitarists. That kinetic, generational and Grammy-winning talent will descend upon Fort Worth’s @dickiesarena on Dec. 12, as the Nashville-based Strings tours behind his latest record, "Highway Prayers."

As a tune-up for his sure-to-be-dazzling performance, check out five more contemporary guitarists, including H.E.R., Molly Tuttle and more who all but demand that you crank it up and play it loud - list at the link in bio.

Ben Folds’ fans are not shy about hollering out

Ben Folds’ fans are not shy about hollering out songs they’d like to hear. And now, the singer has embarked upon the “Paper Airplane Request” tour, where he performs a set, then turns things over to the audience, who write down songs they’d like to hear and fling them onto the stage via paper airplane. @actualbenfolds will bring this aerial-inclined performance to Dallas’ Majestic Theatre on Thursday, December 12.

The concept got us thinking: What songs would we request?
