FEW LIVE MUSIC SHOWS TONIGHT THAT CAUGHT OUR EYE >>>

Capitol Theater Olympia - Downtown. Shemekia Copeland. All Ages. 7 pm. $15-$20.

  • Weekly Volcano music columnist Bobble Tiki waxes Shemekia here.

Hell's Kitchen Tacoma - Downtown. The Northwest Convergence Zone's Summer Crush, with Jar Of Flies, Klover Jane, SweetKiss Momma, Vile Red Falcons, J. T. Philips, Rane Stone. 21+. 8 pm.

Jazzbones Tacoma - Sixth Avenue. Billy Shew Band. 21+. 7:30 pm. NC.

Le Voyeur Café and Lounge Olympia - Downtown. Tiger Shower Caps, Jana Osta, Wisdom Teef. 21+. 9 pm.

Mandolin Cafe Tacoma - Central. 41 Miles. All Ages. 8:30 pm. NC.

Northern Olympia - Downtown. C.L.A.W.S., Finesse, Joey Casio, Global Warming, Prints. All Ages. 8 pm.

  • C.L.A.W.S. is the project of San Franciscan Brian D. Hock, an unlikely West Coast underground talent (and radio DJ) whose booming beats and wintry digital blips would sound right at home in the famed clubs of Cologne, the world capital for all things komische. Hock, who gleaned inspiration from time spent grooving in Berlin's inimitable electro scene, shares many qualities with the gifted gearheads of German über-label Kompakt (Justus Köhncke, Thomas Fehlmann, Ferenc, and Scsi 9, to name a few), including an appreciation of sub-bass rattle, 4/4 house rhythms and icy textural flourishes. Any low-key electronic aesthete capable of holding their own against Deutschland's microhouse heavyweights is definitely worth catching. The other performers on this bill are also sure to bring the heat-expect a well-rounded evening of narcotic digital sounds. - Jason Baxter

The Old General Store Steakhouse and Saloon Roy. Broken Trail. 21+. 9 pm.

O'Malley's Irish Pub Tacoma - Sixth Avenue. Rad Touch, Canon Canyon. 21+. 9 pm. NC.

Red Wind Casino Yelm. Jonathan Harris. 21+. 8:30 pm. NC.

SideBar Bistro Tacoma - Downtown. Saxophonist Michael Hershman. All Ages. 6-9 pm. NC.

Stonegate Pizza Tacoma - South. High Noon Horizon, Blanco Bronco, Midnight Salvage Co., Kill Devil Rum Club. 21+. 9:30 pm.

The Swiss Tacoma - Downtown. Sammy Steele Band. 21+. 9 pm.

Uncle Sam's American Bar & Grill Spanaway. Soulstripper (AC/DC tribute). 21+. 7 pm. NC.

The Vault Nightclub Olympia - Downtown. Too $hort, Mr. D.O.G., Neema, Sec, Props, Hammond, Goldie Stac. 9 pm. $20.

  • Too $hort, Oakland by-way-of South Central Los Angeles MC, has been rapping on the microphone and recording as a pioneer in hip-hop since the early '80s, spitting rhymes your parents would have never allowed you to listen to in that era - although Too $hort's work in the '80s was unique at the time, and contemporary rap borrows a lot from his heyday. Sometimes referred to as a misogynistic, womanizing, sinful lifestyle glorifying artist, Too $hort is much more. Click here for my thoughts. – Jose S. Gutierrez
