A WEEKEND of entertainment kicks off tonight (Thursday, May 10) with Rick Winter at the Master Thatcher and Finally Everything, supported by Sangreal at Rockers Live.
Tonight also sees two of the country's most cutting edge young bands appearing at Mamba on the High Street.
Help She Can't Swim (pictured) are an indie band. Like Sonic Youth crossed with Pretty Girls Make Graves.
Support on the night comes from The Pistolas. A slice of post-Bloc Party art-punk, that take pointers from Ramones, Gang of Four, Valentines and the Pixies. (Tickets cost £5).
Friday, Crying Out Loud is at the Westgate, Mighty Stavertones at the White Hard (East Reach), Cover Up at the Cricketers, and Jive and Rock 'n' Roll at Taunton R'n'R Club.
A Rock Indie Band called 4.15 will be at Rockers supported by Blue Bullet.
Saturday is a young Taunton night at Rockers and sees pop punk One Step Ahead supported by By Your Breakdown and Just Falling Short.
Led By Zeppelin will be at the Square and Compass, Hand F8 at the Pen and Quill, Gold Blend at the Flying Horse, Jesterbones at the Westgate, Roundhouse Revisited at the Vintage Wellington and The Blue Mile at the Bell Inn, in Creech St Michael.
Sunday is relatively quiet after last weekend's extra day of fun, revellers can enjoy Headshot, supported by Toast at Rockers, Sunday Brew at the Brewhouse, and those up for something more challenging can take part in the Quiz at the Moat House.
