This week's MusiCast is your guide to Gainesville and beyond. We start things off by checking out what's new around town, like Saturday's 8th Annual Music Law Conference. Then we take a look at shows and events during the week ahead, like The Bears of Blue River (Tuesday @ Atlantic), The Duppies' CD release (Friday @ Common Grounds), and the "From Gainesville With Love Benefit Show For Haiti" (Saturday @ FL School of Massage). Finally, we submit to you a few more artists you may not have heard - Hope For Agoldensummer and Broken Bells - and what's going on with them.
