Who is performing in Columbus this week? Wiz Khalifa, Albert Cummings, Interpol and more

Another week means another strong concert lineup in Columbus

Last week's concert lineup was carried by two major festivals, The Breakaway Festival and Wonderbus Music & Arts Festival. Together, they brought artists like Duran Duran, Lorde and 21 Savage.

Although the Saturday lineup is a bit light this week - it's hard to schedule a concert the same day as the Ohio State Buckeyes home opener - there are some good shows throughout the week, including Wiz Khalifa coming to Kemba Live on Wednesday and Albert Cummings on Friday at Natalie's Grandview.
