With so many bands these day's wading the water's of the power-pop genre, it's refreshing to see one that actually wear's its heart on its sleeve. Leaving Atlanta is Jesse's personal testament to the power of music in dark times, combining the hook-driven elements of Elvis Costello, with a kind of desperation typically reserved for the Bruce Springsteen's and Billy Bragg's of this world. Rock'n'roll through and through Jesse's is an exercise in overcoming struggle, and a tribute to all things catchy. Tonight we celebrate his music and message as Jesse (and his Men) take over Mohawk Place along with strong support from Barreracuda's and excellent locals Irving Klaws and Matt Smith and the Immediates (8pm, $10). It's been awhile since four acts as consistent (and awesome) as these bands have shared a stage. Ear candy galore. Make it happen.
