Main Street offers music, comedy during ‘S&S Experience.’
Written by Mighty Wyte (Matt Feher) | | mw@toledofreepress.comThere is no question that our local Hip-Hop talents know how to put on a hard-hitting show. On Jan. 26, the Main Street Bar and Grill will play host to one stiff uppercut of an event.
Audience members will be treated to live music performances and fresh stand-up comedy acts. Set to perform at the show, dubbed the “S&S Experience,” after the local artist management group sponsoring the night, are three comedians and four musical acts.
S.S.T.R.E.S.
Tavon Patterson, Keith Cook and Glenn Kynard Jr. are billed as comedic performers for the night, along with musical artists Jason Kelly, Sq’air, The Great Lakes Crew and Toledo’s own verbal villain, S.S.T.R.E.S.
Less than one year after the release of “The Prophecy,” S.S.T.R.E.S. has chosen not to take any time off between albums, and has already begun to record and perform new material.
With the success of “The Prophecy,” S.S.T.R.E.S. said it was important to carry the momentum forward and capitalize on all of the positive feedback he’d been receiving.
“The response to the album has been great; it has helped me make a mark in the music scene and it’s helped me to become respected as a true MC,” he said.
S.S.T.R.E.S. — an acronym for Still Standing Through Rhetoric and Everything Senseless — writes about issues that face real people. He knows how to keep his audience engaged.
“I try to create an environment where people feel like they can be themselves. There is comedy interlaced with high-energy songs, but overall my shows are pretty laid-back,” he said.
Doors for the “S&S Experience” open at 8 pm. Admission is $7 at the door. Main Street Bar and Grill is located at 141 Main St.
