This Saturday, we’re kicking off Music for the Masses: New Wave Nite. DJs Ultra Grrrl and Colin Johnson are serving up a decent dose of Depeche Mode, New Order, Bowie, the Smiths and co., so brush up on the best new wave hits beforehand. Free with RSVP.

On Wednesday, A.O. Gerber is bringing a little tenderness to your weeknight. Trust me, you’ll want to hear her first.
