Musical Pleasures Await in Butte County This Weekend

Published February 2, 2024

As the weekend approaches, Butte County offers a symphony of activities for music lovers. From a charity concert to a spirited silent disco, there's rhythm and melody in the air. Here's a guide to three musical events that promise to fill your weekend with harmony.

Charity Concert at the State Theatre

Saturday afternoon beckons with the 'Door Project' benefit concert at the historic State Theatre in Oroville. Set to begin at 4 p.m. on February 3rd, this event showcases the exceptional talents of Ayke Agus, a celebrated violinist and pianist, along with jazz sensation John Paris. But it's not just about the music; your $30 ticket also grants you an enticing array of wine, beer, and gourmet appetizers courtesy of local favorites like the Union restaurant and Nori Asian Kitchen, to name a few. Attending this concert doesn't just promise an auditory feast; it's also a way to support the theater's door and box office restoration.

The State Theatre is conveniently situated at 1489 Myers St., and those interested can secure their tickets online in advance.

Classic Rock with Those Two Dudes

Step into the Golden Beaver Distillery Park Avenue Stillhouse between 7-9 p.m. today for a back-in-time musical escape with Those Two Dudes. This capable duo, gifted with creating a full band presence, will transport the audience through the greatest hits of the '70s and '80s. And the best part? There's no charge to ride this wave of nostalgia. Be sure to visit the venue at 2420 Park Ave to enjoy these classic rock anthems live.

Silent Disco Fun

Closing out the weekend, a silent disco awaits at The Barn in Meriam Park. From 8-11 p.m. tonight, you can slide on a pair of headphones and switch between the beats of three distinct DJs. The event is open to all ages, encouraging the whole family to engage in the dance floor's silent revelry. Be mindful, though—the event limits capacity, and its doors close to outside food and drink. Online ticket sales wrap up an hour before the shindig begins, and waiting to pay at the door incurs higher fees.

Head over to The Barn at 1930 Market Place and ensure your place at this unique event by purchasing tickets online beforehand.
