The event will take place at Hal &amp; Mal\u2019s in Jackson on Jan. 28 with performances beginning at 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The DMI All Stars are the featured act, as they look to showcase their catalogue of Mississippi centric covers in preparation for their performance in Los Angeles on Mississippi Night during GRAMMY\u00ae Week. There will also be performances from three other DMI student bands and multiple solo performers. DeltaRoX brings some of the major chart toppers in the classic rock genre to life, while Ol\u2019 Skool Revue revives the classic Motown sound with their R&amp;B, funk and soul influences shining bright. The final performing DMI band, B4Y2K, covers the many feel-good tunes that the \u201890s produced.<\/p>\n<p>There will also be a handful of solo performers playing ahead of the bands. From the southern-styled acoustic sound of Carrie Lynn Stanford, Brittany McGee and Chris James, to the more intimate singer-songwriter ballads of Kailey Mathis, Kelsey Buquet and Schaefer Llana, there is something for everyone to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>The solo performers begin playing at 5 p.m. in the dining room of Hal &amp; Mal\u2019s. The event is free, but\u00a0a $5 donation is suggested to help support the travel costs of the student performers. The bands will begin playing at 7 p.m. in the Red Room, where a $5 cover charge is required to enter.<\/p>\n<p>For more information regarding the event, contact Hal &amp; Mal\u2019s at 601-948-0888 or the Delta Music Institute at 662-846-4579.<\/p>\n<p>The DMI is an independent center of study under the College of Arts and Sciences at Delta State University, offering a bachelor\u2019s\u00a0degree in entertainment industry studies.
