Zeus + Eight and a Half + Gold & Youth + Radical Dads

Arts & Crafts signee Zeus brings its catchy power-pop to town for two nights, but the real buzz factor here comes from Eight and a Half, the new endeavor of Broken Social Scene drummer Justin Peroff and the defunct Stills' Liam O'Neil and Dave Hamelin. Their debut won't be out until April, but the few tracks released thus far are promising. The outfit's heavy synth-pop, peppered with plaintive lyrics and dark drums, is gonna be a standout for 2012. Rambunctious indie-pop trio Radical Dads joins in on Thu 23.
