Sounds Like San Diego: Dec. 7

As a member of the Strokes, Nick Valensi helped pave a new path for rock music. With his new project, CRX, he satisfies his own desires to play live again, and for fans to connect on a new level with his lyrics and his new foray into being a frontman. The band's record dropped in late October, and now they make their Casbah debut, along with Dead Heavens and Streets of Laredo. Not a bad way to spend your Wednesday night. Meanwhile, country singer/songwriter Kevin Fowler plays the Belly Up, while Muuy Biien from Athens, Georgia, bring their beer-soaked aggression to Soda Bar, and psych-pop band Frankie & the Witch Fingers play at Whistle Stop. It's a good night of music to get you over the Wednesday hump.
