Detroit-based world beat ensemble Zebula Avenue plays an infectious variety of multi-ethnic, danceable music.

Friday Nights Live @ The DIA
6:00 PM - 10:00 PM
American Mars - 7 & 8:30 p.m.
Since its inception in the late 1990s, American Mars has been a musical anomaly in their hometown of Detroit. The band has persevered for nearly a decade with its unique brand of atmospheric roots-influenced rock. American Mars has embraced a more direct approach to both songwriting and its sense of theme and place in one of its latest records, Western Sides.
