Baptized in the dive bars of the southeast, Paul McDonald first made noise with the Grand Magnolias, a roots-rock outfit, before catching fire during American Idol’s 2011 run. With the Mourning Doves, McDonald isn’t chasing trends but delivering a gospel-tinged reckoning wrapped in cosmic Americana. His live performances are equal parts revival and rock séance.

Cocktail Seating: $33
