Fronted by former Ass Pony Chuck Cleaver and the previously unaffiliated and brilliant Lisa Walker, Cincinnatis Wussy is a rock band thatll remind you on the deepest level why you love rock bands. The central conceit: Submerging pristine, literate songwriting in the rumble and roar of a full band. The secret weapon: A chemistry so rare, powerful, and under-recognized it inspired Robert ChristgauAmericas tersest rock criticto publish a 2,000-word love letter to the best band in America. Go see Wussy. (Barboza, 925 E Pike St, www.thebarboza.com, 7 pm, $10, 21+) by David Schmader
