These United States, The Weeks Cosmic Charlie’s, 388 Woodland Ave. 10 p.m., ages 18+, $10 From the venue website: "These United States surrender themselves to unbridled rock and roll exuberance: ringing guitars, thundering drums, desperate yearning bordering on hope. By turns larger-than-life and disarmingly intimate, this is folk in the truest sense – a record of the moment, of the cultural and emotional forces that animate everyday existence somewhere down below the headlines. (But never apart from them.) And These United States play it the way folk was meant to be played: hard, fast, big, slow, long, loud, loose, at last unburdened. They play like they mean it. Like there’s never been a better time to be alive."

The Middle Fork & Ben Lacy Natasha's, 112 Esplanade Alley, 11 p.m., $8 From the venue website: "Imagine: ranting schizophrenic vocals over a complex rhythm of electronic and live drums, pushed with a slinky fretless 5-string and layered with keys, sax, guitar--sometimes metal, sometimes ethereal, sometimes funky, sometimes industrial. Seriously, go ahead and imagine. I'll wait. The truth is your imagination can't even touch the reality of theMiDDLEfork. With powerful orchestrations and innovative approaches to instrumentation, these 3 guys sound like 6. And their musicianship is matched only by their intensity. See also: severe passion. See also: musical revolution."

WoodSongs presents LOREN & MARK, ETTA BRITT The Kentucky Theater 214 East Main Street 6:45 p.m.,
From the venue website: "Loren & Mark are Central New York acoustic guitar standout Loren Barrigar and New Zealand star Mark Mazengarb. The two were instantly aware of the musical magic that was created the first time they played guitar together at working with the great Tommy Emmanuel at Jorma Kaukonen's Fur Peace Ranch guitar camp. It is difficult to classify the genre of music Barrigar and Mazengarb perform; they simply describe it as 'fingerstyle guitar'. The music is influenced by Bluegrass, Jazz, and Country, and their style of guitar playing is largely built upon the thumb-picking techniques pioneered by guitar greats Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed. … Etta Britt is one of the most versatile singers working out of Nashville today. Born in Lancaster, Ky., this seasoned veteran has toured the world and shared a stage or recording studio with everyone from Engelbert Humperdinck to REO Speedwagon to Waylon Jennings. In 1978, she joined Dave Rowland and Sue Powell in the country-music trio Dave & Sugar. She stayed with the trio from 1979 to 1985, during which time they received CMA Vocal Group of the Year nominations five years in a row."
