Marnie Stern / Weekends















With more shows than popped collars at Power Plant* on a Friday, March is shaping up to be pretty grand. One of the million shows worthy of your attendance next month reps Marnie Stern and the local standouts Weekends.

I've already recently spewed my emotions on Weekends, but Marnie Stern's guitar licks should be enough to get your tushes to Sonar on March 12th. Girl can rock, and is hands down one of the nastiest guitar virtuosos of recent memory.

Her newest album is a whirlwind of riffs, plucks and melodies, and one can imagine it translates well live. Don't forget to scoop Weekends debut album while you're there, as it is easily one of the most fun albums to squeeze out of 2009 so far.

*I submitted a UD definition for Power Plant to link to, but my objectionable remarks were deemed unruly by the same editors who allowed "P diddy" to be defined like this.
