MUSIC: SEXTILE After a three-year hiatus following the tragic death of original member and synth player Eddie Wuebeen, LA’s underground party-provoking band Sextile returns to the stage revitalized and with every intention of making the masses dance. The band’s current lineup is made up of founding members Melissa Scaduto and Brady Keehn, along with its newest synth addition, Cameron Michel. Their latest album Push is appropriately named for its movement-friendly songs, enhanced by higher BPMs, darker allure, and a raw, experimental post-punk energy. If you feel exhausted and sticky by the end of the show, you did it right. With Donzii, Evelyn Scythe. 8 p.m., $20+, Backstage Bar & Billiards, seetickets.us. –Gabriela Rodriguez

MISC: RAIDING THE EMO VAULT Raiding the Rock Vault is one of the greatest Vegas music tribute shows, perhaps a bit overlooked after a decade of performances because it stays in smaller, club-style venues—an intentional move to recall the days when its famous music was performed by up-and-coming bands at LA bars and other divey spots. But it’s always been a ton of fun, and now producer Sir Harry Cowell is ready to expand on his model with Raiding the Emo Vault, featuring the cool-all-over-again sounds of My Chemical Romance, Panic! At the Disco, Paramore and others. And this show debut is perfectly placed at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Strip (near Showcase Mall), which makes us think it’ll stick around for a while, just like it’s hard-rocking predecessor. 8 p.m., $49-$69, Hard Rock Live, universe.com. –Brock Radke

Faye Webster

Faye Webster

MUSIC: FAYE WEBSTER It’s easy to underestimate Atlanta singer-songwriter Faye Webster. She’s a willowy, 26-year-old girl with a guitar, and yet her musicianship transcends everything you think you know about indie folk rock. Webster’s last three albums are as lyrically direct as they come, but the presence of violin arrangements, pedal steel guitar, percussion, R&B and autotune—especially on 2024’s Underdressed at the Symphony—enriches her catalog with a sophistication beyond her years. Underdressed is a slow-burning masterpiece, set to the speed of Webster’s languid, almost jazz-like rhythms. It’s meditative in its own right, healing even, and definitely worth the time. With Upchuck. 7:30 p.m., $45, Brooklyn Bowl, ticketmaster.com. –Amber Sampson
