10th Grade Cutie, Imari Tones, Bows & Arrows Super Happy Fun Land |
Wed., April 8 |
Heights |
|
 10th Grade Cutie is a part of a new wave of punk bands like The Wrong Ones and The Ginslingers festering around town who mine more from Johnny Thunders and the late 70’s than grunge or early 90’s indie like most H-Town kids. Whereas the other two are straight-ahead rock, Cutie seems... More >> |

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, Vivian Girls, Future Blondes Walter's on Washington |
Thu., April 9 |
Heights |
|
 As the hoary adage avers: "Good artists borrow, great artists steal." So what are we supposed to make of Vivian Girls, a Brooklyn-based, all-girl punk band who manage to rip off Tiger Trap, The Ronettes, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, plus seminal first-wave punk band The Wipers, all in one fell...

The 71's, The Distracted, The Colored Bandanas Fitzgerald's |
Fri., April 10 |
Heights |
|
 The history of The 71's is not well documented, and a tireless Google search, set to their appropriately soul-seeking music, leaves many questions unanswered. Two previous EPs, The 71's and Want You Know, seem to feature none of the lineup present on latest LP We Are Locomotive save guitarist... More >> |

Wild Moccasins, Slingshot Dakota, Football Etc. Walter's on Washington |
Fri., April 17 |
Heights |
|
 If anyone thinks these folk-poppers are simply too adorable to be for real, Wild Moccasins' second EP should shut them up and win them over at the same time. Yes, the "awwww" factor can be a bit hard to overcome (especially if you've seen them live), but the quintet's facility with everything... More >> |

Muhammad Ali, New Thrill Parade, Giant Battle Monster, Light As Ether Super Happy Fun Land |
Wed., April 22 |
Heights |
|
 With a helluva live show and already garnering a devoted following, Muhammad Ali is knocking ‘em dead left and right. Ok, we had to get the boxing reference out of the way, because as much as we tried to sidestep it, we couldn’t resist. Since releasing a split cassette with party boys... More >> |

David Brown: "20/40" Catalina Coffee |
Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., March 26 until Thu., April 30 |
Heights |
|
Apple Inc. ought to be paying David Brown for his “20/40” photography exhibit, since he shot all of the images in the exhibit with his iPhone. That’s not a big deal, right? Well, actually, when you get high-quality, expressive images like Brown did, ah, yeah, it kinda is a big... More >> |

The folks behind this production of Falstaff say this is “opera unplugged,” and we believe them. Opera in the Heights is known for performing black-tie shows without the black-tie trappings — or prices. Today you’ll enjoy Verdi’s story of the knight with a serious... More >> |
