| LET’S DO THIS | t Music Jeezy 7 P.M. THURSDAY, MAY 26, AT TEXAS TRUST CU THEATRE, 1001 PERFORMANCE PLACE, $55+ AT AXS.COM Atlanta rapper Jeezy, aka Young Jeezy, came out swinging in 2005. He was one of the biggest names in hip-hop as a solo act and his group Boyz n the Hood also scored big the same year with its hit “Dem Boyz.” For nearly two decades now, Jeezy has always been a stalwart figure in the rap game, turning out 12 of his own albums while be- ing featured prominently on tracks from his peers and up-and-comers such as Dallas’ own Yella Beezy. For all his work in hip-hop, Jeezy has been surprisingly quiet since 2020, at least musically. Earlier this year, Jeezy marked a new era in his life, welcoming his first child with The Real host Jean- nie Mai into the world in January. Thursday night, Jeezy performs with Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta star K. Michelle and New Orleans R&B singer Lloyd, who you may remember for his 2004 hit “South- side (feat. Ashanti).” DAVID FLETCHER Shannon and the Clams 7 P.M. FRIDAY, MAY 27, AT TULIPS, 112 ST. LOUIS AVE., $20 AT PREKINDLE.COM For the past 15 years, garage punk band Shan- non and the Clams has been keeping things ex- citing with a mix of psychedelic surf rock and classic R&B. Led by singer Shannon Shaw, who just recently made an appearance playing with Hunx and His Punx opening for Bikini Kill earlier this month, Shannon and the Clams has been a Papa Roach performs Sunday at Dos Equis. has actually seen them live knows that Papa Roach is a band that absolutely puts it all out there on stage, performing to the people in the very back of the lawn seating. Joining Papa Roach on the Dos Equis Pavilion stage this year are ’90s post-grunge band Bush, whose 2020 album, The Kingdom, was praised for its return to the group’s earliest roots. Alt-rock band Fuel will also be performing in an all- new lineup save for original guitarist Carl Bell and drummer Kevin Miller. Hard rock band Seether will round out the nostalgia acts this year. Opening the day are hard rock band Dead Sara, Mongolian rock band The HU and Stephenville rock ’n’ rollers Giovannie and the Hired Guns. DF Mikel Galicia favorite among music critics for bringing to- gether these disparate sounds in a way that honors the band’s influences without copying them outright. Instead, the band writes anthe- mic songs in this seamless mash-up to capture the innocence and rebellion that defined the music from the ’50s and ’60s. We’ve seen this kind of retrofuturist approach to music before, whether from psychobilly band Tiger Army or avant-pop band Stereolab, but when Shannon and the Clams do it, it’s all for the fun of it. DF First Timers Potpourri Fest 7 P.M. FRIDAY, MAY 27, AT RUBBER GLOVES, 411 E. SYCAMORE ST., $5 AT THE DOOR Something really special is going down in Den- ton this Friday night. In an effort to remain on the cutting edge of North Texas’ local music scene, Rubber Gloves is hosting a night of music provided by bands that have never graced its stage before. After putting out a call last month for new bands to reach out for a spot on the lineup, Rubber Gloves received dozens of sub- missions and have narrowed the list down to 10 bands that you have more than likely never heard, much less seen live before. Even we’re not entirely sure about every band on the lineup, but we can say that this mix will feature indie- psyche band Flow-State, dynamic rock from Zane and the Strange Angels, singer-songwriter Ryan Burke, goth-rock duo Blood Bells and many, many more. This will be the first event of its kind at Rubber Gloves, but the venue has said it plans to do more in the future. DF KEGL’s BFD 2:30 p.m. Sunday, May 28, at Dos Equis Pavilion, 1818 First Ave., $29.50+ at livenation.com Let’s talk a bit about Papa Roach, this year’s head- liner at KEGL’s annual BFD concert. It’s easy to write them off as some relic from alt-metal’s sketchy, turn-of-the-century past, but anyone who Animal Collective 7 P.M. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, AT GRANADA THEATER, 3524 GREENVILLE AVE., $36 AT PREKINDLE.COM Experimental pop band Animal Collective has been a dorm-room favorite for over two de- cades now. The band’s 2009 release, Merri- weather Post Pavilion, stands as an undeniable classic from the end of the 21st century’s first decade with classics like “My Girls” and “Brother Sport.” The group is truly a collective with no single member being essential to the band’s lineup. In fact, the band’s most recent album, Time Skiffs, is the first album to include all four members of the group since 2012’s Centipede Hz. Hailed as the band’s most cohesive album since its 2009 masterpiece, Time Skiffs doesn’t break new ground for the band as much as it so- lidifies Animal Collective’s signature experimen- tal sound as a new standard in music. Though the new album may not bring many brand new fans into the fold, Time Skiffs gives established Animal Collective fans exactly what they want and nothing more.
