Loxsly, Quiet, Lovely, Sad Accordions, Yay for Squares

Nothing says “Austin indie rock” quite like the combination of synthesizers and pedal steel, and the swirly art-poppers in Loxsly make good use of both. The psychedelic five-piece also knows the importance of a light show when trying to provoke head-trips, but never lets its accessories weigh down the boisterous, buoyant pop at its core. A recently finished album of new material needs only the ballast of a record deal before blasting the band further into the stratosphere. Catch Loxsly here with the only-occasionally quiet Quiet Lovely, hushed indie-folk group Sad Accordions, and Waco power-pop trio Yay For Squares. www.theonion.com

The Sickest Fing Stories I Ever Heard is an exercise in comedy vérité that’s as bluntly provocative as its title. Five performers play poker onstage, betting real money, drinking real beer and telling real sick stories. As Time Out NY puts it: “Imagine if the Algonquin Round Table were to trade Dorothy Parker and Robert Benchley for Howard Stern and Al Goldstein.”
