The Oxford American magazine is proud to welcome That Arkansas Weather to South on Main!

The concert starts at 10pm; doors open at 9pm. This is a ticketed event, with a $10 cover payable in cash only at the door on the night of the show.

That Arkansas Weather is a dynamic young band consisting of some of central Arkansas’ finest professional musicians. Deriving its name from the mercurial climate of our state, That Arkansas Weather plays a delightfully unpredictable combination of Jazz, Soul, R&B, Funk, and Hip-Hop.

All capable composers and improvisors, they perform both original material and new interpretations of classic songs while striking the perfect balance between accessible and experimental; familiar and new.

Gig-tested and audience approved, That Arkansas Weather is clearly one of the best new bands on the block.
