A three-pronged, locally-flavored punk billing hits Boot & Saddle tonight. Retro-fitted for that classic, catchy, brimming-with-energy vibe that spills over into the audience, The Tough Shits capture a chilled-out yet constantly-on-the-go garage sound. Their playful partying injects enough unfiltered attitude to create a raw edge, balancing things out with that bubbly surfing backdrop – crisp and yet still loose in a way that fits one’s weekend needs. Upon rolling up to Boot & Saddle this evening, they’ll be joined by the fuzzed-out, sprinting-out-of-the-blocks punk of Cheerbleeders, while the snarling, full-steam-ahead, melodically balanced tunes of The Prisoners get things started. Boot & Saddle, 1131 S. Broad St., 8pm, $10, 21+ – Michael Colavita
