On the heels of a live appearance on KEXP on Dec. 3, indie rock lightning rod Cristina Bautista will be back onstage at The Sunset Tavern tomorrow night, along with Los Angeles acts Mike Bloom and Miracle Parade. Performing songs from her Gold Parts EP, the six-song follow up to 2006’s This is the Team, Bautista’s live appearances promise an amplified version of the explosive energy found on her recordings. The Visqueen bassist performed in the band’s farewell show on Nov. 26, but the future looks promising for her solo endeavors, something Bautista’s unabashedly honest lyrics and optimistic delivery express with eloquence.
Doors: 9 p.m.
Tickets: $6 advance
