February may be a short month, but we managed to pack a whole ton of great concerts into those 28 days. Tedeschi Trucks Band took over DC for a couple weekends, Trey Anastasio celebrated valentines day with the District, and Greensky Bluegrass covered Cris Jacobs in front of 6,000 people at The Anthem. And that's only the beginning. Get a taste of the hottest live recordings from around the DMV with this month's episode of DC Scene-In-Review.

We have an incredible episode to start out the year. The Infamous Stringdusters came through the 9:30 Club, then won a Grammy about ten days later. Coincidence? We think not. The Disco Biscuits gave us the first ever back-to-back performances at the 9:30 Club and The Anthem, and I got to tape those shows, giving me my first recordings from the awesome new venue on the Wharf. Abbie Ginis joins the show to discuss her review of Justin Trawick's new EP, and Rudi Greenberg returns to the show to discuss the month we just witnessed, and what you won't want to miss in February.

And we have a t-shirt giveaway contest inspired by Rudi's rundown of shows to see in February! Whoever goes to the most concerts between today and Sunday February 18th is the winner. All you have to do is take a picture of yourself at the show, upload it to instagram and tag @DCMusicReview or #DCMusicReview, tag the venue, and tag the band or say what show it is in the description. If there's a tie we will pick a name out of a hat.

Set II:

"Slaii Dog" and "Sweet Heaven" by Skaii at their debut on January 17th at Bossa Bistro & Lounge

"Todd's Tots" by Spafford on January 25th at Union Stage

Each month we will provide a post here at DC Music Review with links to every track used in the show so you can keep listening on your own. So without further ado, we present the "October Edition" of DC Scene In Review:

The month brings some intense emotions for the music community, all kinds of Halloween fun, and we're joined by Rudi Greenberg, the Features Managing Editor at the Washington Post Express to dissect the celebrated opening of The Anthem. Later, Gordon Sterling, of Nappy Riddem and Capital Funk Squad, talks about Gordon Sterling Presents: The Gypsysally's Jam, the Las Vegas concert shooting, and the passing of Tom Petty.
