Saturday
Keith Sweat, Total, Bobby V and Dana Dane
It’s time to take it back to the old school and body roll your way down to the Affordable Old School concert. Known for his classic ‘”bump and grind” hits, “I Want Her” and “Nobody,” Sweat headlines and brings with him some special guests. R&B ’90s female trio Total’s songs “Can’t You See” and “No One Else” blazed the top of the U.S. R&B charts in 1995. No stranger to Atlanta, R&B singer and Atlanta Hawks super fan Bobby V will perform a rendition of songs and slow jams from his five studio albums and latest EP, “Peach Moon.” Hip-hop recording artist Dana Dane also will perform, and comedian Lav Luv will host.

Wednesday
Marc Cohn
The Grammy Award-winning folk rock singer-songwriter’s first show has sold out, and a second show has been added. He is perhaps best known for his song “Walking in Memphis” from his self-titled album in 1991. The 54-year-old Cleveland native took a decadelong sabbatical from recording but went back to the studio in 2007. His most recent album, “Listening Booth: 1970,” was released in 2010. It’s a collection of songs from 1970 that inspired him at the young age of 11.
9:30 p.m. Wednesday. $35-$175. Eddie’s Attic, 515-B N. McDonough St., Decatur. 404-377-4976, eddiesattic.com.
