Akron Soul Rockers Winslow Drop New Album All too often, when bands have a buzz going and then lose it, they become discouraged and break up. That could have happened to Winslow. But they held on and regrouped. This weekend the band releases its first album in nearly five years.

* Akron's Maid Myriad return from road to play the Grog Thu 2/28.
* Apollo's Fire leaves behind its usual territory for a "covered-wagon journey..." Thu 2/28.
* Pomegranates to play at Bad Racket Studio Fri 3/1. Just-under-the-radar.
* Erie folk rockers Falling Hollywood @ Five O'Clock Lounge Sat 3/2. No '80s glam here.
* Joe McBride does jazz @ the Civic Sat 3/2.
