Foxy Shazam.

Giving you the music a day early:

Foxy Shazam is a Cincinnati live-wire rock outfit known for their glam rock rhythms and frontman Eric Sean Nally, who worships the stage presences of Freddie Mercury, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John and Iggy Pop. They are a band that wants to be the “Michael Jordan of rock ‘n’ roll,” according to Nally. See how the band does it when Foxy Shazam comes to Juanita’s. It’s an all-ages show with the doors opening at 8 p.m. and the music starting at 9 p.m. Tickets are $12 in advance and $14 day of show. Opening the show is the dirty rock ‘n’ roll of nasty, Ohio band Cadaver Dogs, and for local support, the punk cabaret music of North Little Rock’s Flameing Daeth Fearies.

Sludge metal and New Orleans — Those two things come together when the legendary Crowbar plays a show at Downtown Music. Call Crowbar the kings of sludge metal with their slow and heavy songs of doom that suddenly spark into furious punk passages. The Crowbar tour stop at Downtown Music also includes Los Angeles industrial metal band Prong and Seattle sludge rock act Witchburn. Local support will be provided by Iron Tongue with their Little Rock-bred rock thunder, and Knee Deep with their hard-hitting, Southern metal. The doors open at 8 p.m. with the music starting soon afterward. Tickets are $15 in advance and $17 at the door.

Here are Foxy Shazam with their “Unstoppable”:

Electric Six.

Giving you the music a day early:

What’s in store when Detroit outfit Electric Six comes to Stickyz? A little alternative, hard and funk rock mixed with dance punk and New Wave, and all led by the Freddie Mercury/Richard Cheese-inspired Dick Valentine. With tunes such as the Courtney Love-alluding “Jam It In The Hole,” the group will offend and also please. Touring in support of an upcoming release Heartbeats and Brainwaves, the band will be joined for a night of disco dancing and dirty rock by ferocious indie rockers Kitten and Mark Mallman, a crazed and punishing piano rocker. Local support will be provided by North Little Rock cabaret punk rock band Flameing Daeth Fearies with the music kicking off at 8 p.m. Tickets are $12 in advance and $14 day of for the 18-and-up show.

Elliott Yamin placed third on the fifth season of American Idol, and his first album hit No. 3 on the Billboard album charts with the tune “Wait for You” becoming a hit. It’s a mixture of pop crossed with contemporary R&B that Yamin brings to Juanita’s for a night of music that kicks off with New York City-based Mikey Wax, a pianist and guitarist who is known for creating soul-infused pop rock and who released his second album Constant Motion last Tuesday. The doors open at 9 p.m. with tickets $16 in advance and $18 day of show.

Here’s Electric Six with their “Gay Bar”:

Tuesday’s Music

Dionne Warwick.

Giving you the music a day early:

Starting with 1962′s “Don’t Make Me Over,” Dionne Warwick started charting hit R&B, soul and adult contemporary songs, from “Walk On By,” “I Say a Little Prayer” and “This Girl’s in Love With You” to “I’ll Never Love This Way Again,” “Heartbreaker” and “That’s What Friends Are For.” She has won Grammys, recorded No. 1 hits and had more than 50 Top 100 hits. And now Warwick brings all that star power to Reynolds Performance Hall on the University of Central Arkansas campus for a special night of music. Tickets are $30, $35 and $40 with the music starting at 7:30 p.m.

Hawthorne Heights‘ newest release is the nine-track EP Hate, a collection of tunes that are heavier than anything the band has ever done but still with plenty of pop punk rhythms to go along with the post-hardcore rage. It’s an EP that more than recaptures the screamo nature of the band’s early work. The Ohio band is on the road, including a stop at Juanita’s. It’s an all-ages show with the doors opening at 8 p.m. and the music starting at 9 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. The opening acts are a couple of local acts: Sherwood progressive rock act Boom the Wheel and North Little Rock cabaret punk sensation Flameing Daeth Fearies.

Thursday’s Music

Sweetwater Abilene.

Giving you the music a day early:

Springfield, Mo., outfit Sweetwater Abilene combines ringing guitar rhythms along with power pop melodies and garage rock power chords in creating their punchy, guitar-rific rock ‘n’ roll. It’s that certain combination of sounds that just jams. For an introduction check out the band’s excellent Lift Up Your Eyes. (And, of course, Sweetwater Abilene lead singer J.R. Top is also Lt. Top of Little Rock dance/garage/punk rockers Booyah! Dad.) Sweetwater Abilene visits White Water Tavern, and the music stars at 10 p.m. The opening act is Ghost Dance.

Memphis musician Muck Sticky‘s blog calls himself the “king of fun,” and rightly so because that is what the artist you may call Sticky creates: a quirky blending of psychedelia and funk with humor and tons of good vibes. The pajama pants-wearing Sticky comes to Rev Room on a touring promoting his 10th album, the June release Get This! The opening act is North Little Rock’s own punk cabaret act Flameing Daeth Fearies, who create fun-loving music while also incorporating interactive elements. The show starts at 9 p.m. with a $8 cover at the door for the all-ages act.

Here’s Sweetwater Abilene with their “Giant Ate the Rainbow”:

Blitzkid.

Giving you the music early:

West Virginia band Blitzkid has a simple name for their guitar player: Monstrosity. So it’s to be expected that band plays a kind of punk music, mixing in a touch of goth, metal and horror to their sound. The quartet visits Downtown Music, headlining a show that includes Conway punk rockers The Muddlestuds and North Little Rock punk cabaret band Flameing Daeth Fearies. The doors open at 7 p.m. with the music at 8 p.m. Tickets are $7 in advance and $10 at the door.

Micky & The Motorcars — headed by the brother team of Micky and Gary Braun, brothers of Reckless Kelly’s Willy and Cody Braun — continue to roll right along with their rock-flavored, Texas country music, with a headlining visit to Rev Room. Their fourth album, 2008′s Naive, featured guest songwriting and singing from Randy Rogers, Lloyd Maines and Mickey Raphael, and the hard touring behind the album spawned the two-disc, live album Live at Billy Bob’s Texas released in November 2009. The opening act is to be announced, but expect the music at 9 p.m. with a $8 cover for the 18-and-up show.

Here’s Blitzkid in action with their “Love Like Blood”:

The Young Maths.

Giving you the music a day early:

McAllen, Texas, is perhaps the last place one would expect to discover challenging music, beyond the work of Little Rock favorite Dignan. (Go ahead, look it up on a map. Bottom of the U.S. applies.) But The Young Maths are a four piece bent on throwing together punk, funk and dance, creating gems such as the deep, bass rumble and rock-riff filled “Gay Bars” and the frenetic indie rock of “Sheets.” The danceable quartet make their Little Rock debut with a show at Revolution Music Room. Androids of Ex-Lovers, a duo that produces garage-flavored, experimental music created solely with bass, drums and howling, bluesy vocals, and Flameing Daeth Fearies, a North Little Rock punk cabaret band, are the openers, kicking off the music at 9 p.m. Cover for the all-ages show is $5.

It’s the week between the holidays so Movies in the Park returns to the River Market Pavilions with a free showing of the Disney movie Ice Princess, starring Michelle Trachtenberg, Joan Cusack, Kim Cattrall and Hayden Panettiere. The story of a young woman stopping at nothing to become a champion figure skater begins at 6 p.m. And, after being inspired by the film, go hit the ice at the Arvest River Market on Ice.

Here’s The Young Maths with their “The Science”:

Friday’s Music

Flaw.

Giving you the music a day early:

Flaw is cancelled.

Kentucky alternative metal band Flaw formed in the mid-1990s and released a series of independent albums. But it wasn’t until their Universal Records release Through the Eyes that the band became nationally know, thanks to a string of mainstream rock hits such as “Payback.” While the band broke up earlier this century, the band has since regrouped and is back on the road, including a stop at Juanita’s. The doors open at 8 p.m. with the music at 9 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 day of show with the night opening with Osceola rock band Finding Jimmy Hoffa and Flaw touring partners Saturate, a Baytown, Texas, hard rock band.

Hot Springs industrial rock band The Vail comes to Downtown Music with a couple of other local acts: central Arkansas hardcore band My Hands to War and North Little Rock punk cabaret band Flameing Daeth Fearies. After playing the part of KISS at a local Halloween party, the Fearies continue with their Get Your Red Wings Tour 2010 to celebrate the release of their newest EP, Lightish Red, a collection of tunes showcasing the band’s “comedic cabaret pop punk” sound. The music starts at 8 p.m. with a $6 cover. Also on the bill is West Memphis hardcore metal outfit An American Tragedy.

Perhaps the best trumpet player in Arkansas, Rodney Block, returns to one of his favorite haunts with a visit to The Afterthought. Block’s live act is a stone cold, cool fusion of jazz, hip-hop, R&B, funk and soul. The music starts at 9 p.m. with cover $10.

Here’s Flaw with their “My Letter”:

Tuesday’s Music

Green Jelly.

Giving you the music a day early:

Green Jelly originally formed as a comic punk band in the early ’80s, scoring it big with their 1993 heavy metal ode to a children’s fairy tale, “Three Little Pigs,” back when they were named Green Jello. Following a 2008 reunion, the comedic heavy metal band is back and on the road, including a stop at Juanita’s. The Fabulous Miss Wendy is the opening act with their power trio rock, and local support is from North Little Rock punk cabaret group Flameing Daeth Fearies kicking off the music at 9 p.m. Tickets are $5 advance and $8 day of show for the 18-and-up event.

The Rural War Room, a multinational cyberband headed by Little Rock residents Donavan Suitt and Byron Werner, has finished its newest recording, The Flaming Yawn, a collection of collaborative tracks featuring the talents of seven artists. The album is available via iTunes and other digital stores, and Suitt and Werner will be hosting a live, two-hour radio event on KABF 88.3 FM starting at 10 p.m. The event will feature artists from around the world who played on the new album.

Here’s Green Jelly with “Bear Song”:

Monday’s Music

Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson.

Giving you the music a day early:

Kicking off with a playful keyboard riff, the lyrics of Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson‘s “The Sound” are as dark as the music is triumphant. Try “Why would I try to hang on to anyone else/It’s a hard enough time just trying to hang myself” on for size. While Robinson’s lyrics are often bitter and filled with self-loathing, his updated indie folk is usually gorgeous. Robinson will open for the fuzzy, indie popsters Suckers with their squiggly kaleidoscope of music as the Brooklyn band returns to Sticky Fingerz. Tickets are $8 advance and $10 day of show for the 21-and-up gig, with the music starting at 8:30 p.m. with Shilpa Ray and Her Happy Hookers, an incendiary live act.

Green Jelly originally formed as a comic punk band in the early 80s, scoring it big with their 1993 heavy metal ode to a children’s fairy tale, “Three Little Pigs,” back when they were named Green Jello. A lawsuit from Kraft led to a name change, and the band went on hiatus on the late ’90s. But following a 2008 reunion, the comedic heavy metal band is back and on the road, including a stop at Juanita’s. Tickets for the all-ages show are $5 advance and $8 day of show with the music starting at 9 p.m. Local support will be provided by Brother Andy & His Big Damn Mouth with their lo-fi, garage-y music and the Flameing Daeth Fearies, the North Little Rock cabaret punk rock band.

And here’s the sound of Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson with “The Sound”:
