The lumbering beast known as Godzilla Summerfest has finally lumbered back into Lake Michigan, content to slumber for another year while plotting the destruction of the city more great music and entertainment for 2015. In Milwaukee, this can mean only one thing: more festivals! The 2014 Brady Street Festival is set for Saturday, July 26, and the fest’s recently released music lineup is solid. Plenty of local festival favorites will be playing (Soul Low, Midnight Reruns, Kyle Cherek’s mozzarella-making demonstration), but the biggest news is that The Celebrated Workingman will reunite for a one-off Brady Street show. (Woo!) Also: The Celebrated Workingman will reunite for a one-off Brady Street show. (Woo!) Mark Waldoch and company haven’t been gone that long, but it’s great to see one of Milwaukee’s best acts give it one more go.
