Sweet snarling vocals with a instrumental aggression that won’t ease up or back down, Cheerbleeders bring an immediate shot of adrenaline to Bourbon & Branch tonight. Unforgiving guitar shreds bulldoze the area ahead in attacking flashes, and the vocals explode in unfiltered expressions. Barriers stand little chance when the speed and force team up, rocking you into submission. Minnesota’s Jack and the Coax serve up a seductive concoction of bluesy Americana. The raunchy, retro rumble of The Up! Up! Ups! and the smooth-talking riff-fueled rock of Wild Joy wrap this billing. Bourbon & Branch, 705 N. 2nd St., 7pm, $7, 21+ – Michael Colavita
