There are plenty of shows to check out tonight if you're looking for a good way to warm up and get out of the house...
Those Darlins are playing the late show at the Evening Muse along with Raised by Wolves. Should be a good one! Earlier in the night, Jill Andrews of The Everybodyfields will hit the stage, along with Amelia's Mechanics.

The Moderate Deftly-written songs lyrically leaning on storytelling, the D.C.-based quartet, with North Carolina roots, seems to have a natural knack for spinning yarns that span rock's storied decades. The guitars point to indie rockers such as Built to Spill while tossing in bits of countryfied rock. The combo is working their cogent debut The Rest is Up to You, released this past fall. With openers Mama's Love. Double Door Inn
The Mangles Nothing like a trio racking up punk influences from The Ramones to Johnny Thunders and cuttin' loose while drenched with a few mugs of brewskies. The N.C. band's tracks range from punk-fed bar chords to riffs that channel rock guitarists of yore. The basic elements of rock guitars, bass and drums where all three croon as needed promise a bouncy set of punk and garage rock. Warming up for Lamb Handler. Snug Harbor
