Tonight's top show: Surfer Blood at Schubas
Surfer Blood: The pride of Palm Beach, Fla., this quartet plays it big without apology on its debut album, “Astro Coast” (Kanine). Riding the wave stirred up by the single “Swim,” the band favors shout-from-the-rooftops choruses, lots of reverb and uplifting mid-tempo, major-key rock chords. Nothing new, in other words, but catchy all the same, 9 p.m. Wednesday at Schubas, 3159 N. Southport, $10 and $12 (sold out); schubas.com.
