Gig Guide

Randy, Brandon, John and Marco seriously want you to know that they’re not a rockabilly band. Really. To prove it, they write songs about “space dolphins, dinosaurs, gnomes, witches and the death of white lions.” They play 1980s-indebted metal, but they aren’t too serious about it. To prove they’re not serious, they gave their band a good rockabilly sounding name. They’ll be coming in fast from Atlanta, burning the white lines off the road in the Hot Rod Lincoln, for a big night of rawk with their friends the Pinx, C2 and the Brothers Reed. 9 p.m. $5.

Do you have a pair of knee-high, glitter-covered platform boots just gathering dust in your closet? Not many opportunities to wear that sort of thing in Middle Georgia, huh? Have no fear, the fine folks at the Library Ballroom are here to help you out. They’re presenting a night of glam rock in tribute to David Bowie, which features Campbell Airlines playing all your favorites from the Thin White Duke, as well as tunes by T. Rex, Alice Cooper, Queen and the New York Dolls. Come on out and make your personality crisis public. 8 p.m. $10-$15.

The Wood Brothers began as somewhat of a side project — Chris Wood was a fixture of the jam-band scene as one third of the group Medeski, Martin and Wood, and his brother Oliver was a fixture on tours with Tinsley Ellis and had released a half-dozen records with his group King Johnson. Ten years later, the one-time side project seems more like the main gig. The entire band now calls Nashville home, where they made use of Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye Studios to record their latest, “Paradise,” a record about the conflicting nature of desire and the pursuit of worthwhile fulfillment. “Musical omnivore” Patrick Sweany opens up the show. Doors: 7 p.m./Show: 8 p.m. $25-$28.

Second Sunday wraps up in style with Great Peacock, a band out of Nashville that specializes in Wilco-style cosmic Americana, making music that comes from somewhere between a country campfire and the bright lights of the big city. The rules are the same as always: no grills or tents, all pets must be leashed, and please be mindful of your neighbors if you’re going to smoke. Picnics, blankets and chairs are encouraged, but there’s food on site from the Brick if you want to get it there. 6 p.m. Free.

Lucero has been at it for more than 25 years, and frontman Ben Nichols claims the band has finally gotten it right with its latest record, “All A Man Should Do.” It features a cover of Big Star’s “I’m in Love With a Girl” recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis, which includes background vocals by none other than original Big Star member Jody Stephens. Pretty good for a bunch of punk and metal kids who started the band with a vague idea about wanting to sound like a country Tom Waits and even less of an idea about how to play their instruments. Doors: 7 p.m./show: 8 p.m. $20-$25.
