Live Music This Weekend: Drop Zone and Soulmate Band

This weekend is packed with live music on the North Shore and a whole bunch of bands playing a wide variety of music genres, from classic rock to blues and soul, can be seen for free at rock clubs and restaurants throughout the region. 

The Drop Zone is playing at Rockafellas on Saturday night. Per the band's wesbite, the Drop Zone "is a full production rock/pop/dance cover band. Drop Zone is a top-notch act covering everything from The Bravery to Bob Marley, Rage Against The Machine to The Killers and The Rolling Stones to Katy Perry. The main idea for the song selection is to give the people what they want, and more specifically, what they want to dance to."

All shows begin at 9 p.m. unless specified.
