ARTS Pick: Hoopla

Devilish details: While it has the best-loved components of most festivals—an extensive list of craft beer offerings and a groovy live music lineup (this one includes CAAMP, Ona, Larry Keel Explosion, Indecision, Gold Top County Ramblers, and Sarah White)—Hoopla goes beyond the party standards to bring all ages together for adventures between sets. A fun run, tie-dye workshop, and guided hike on the Appalachian Trail are just a few of the options open to revelers looking to commune with the natural setting.

Through Sunday, September 29. $65-150, times vary. Devils Backbone Basecamp, 200 Mosbys Run, Roseland.

ARTS Pick: Caamp

Banjo-guitar power duo Caamp plays the Southern on Friday. Publicity photo

Childhood friends Taylor Meier and Evan Westfall had been playing music together for years when they decided to form the duo Caamp in 2015. Combining folk guitar with rhythmic banjo picking raised up by seamless harmonies, the act quickly became known for its authentic live performances. The fast rise in popularity also produced a wildly loyal fan base for these self-described “Ohio boys making beautiful noise.”

Friday, January 19. $8-10, 7pm. The Southern Café and Music Hall, 103 S. First St. 977-5590.
