You Do You EP Release Show at North Star Bar Jan. 17

Funky soul rockers You Do You are all set to celebrate the release of their appropriately titled debut EP, The Sweet Sounds of the Funky Sounds, tonight at the North Star Bar, and they’ll definitely be delivering an ample amount of both. The group features members of The Externals, The New Connection, Crills Wilson, and Electric Sex Power. Whether it’s with a soulful keyboard-laden tune like “Wait a Minute” or a quirky new country lament like their debut single “Darling My Dear,” they have been gaining notoriety for their polished instrumentals and multiple vocal parts. They’ll be joined by the guitar-charged alt-country group Tin Horses, who is led by Purling Hiss bassist Kiel Everett. The evening will also feature the funk rock stylings of The Great Vibration and the folk rock sounds of Song Dogs. North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St., 9pm, $8 – $10, 21+ – Bill McThrill
