Leslie and the Lys @ Chop Suey | 03/11 | 9 pm | $12 adv/ $14 dos

Spring’s not quite here yet, but there’s a few options for something to keep your blood warm. For a glam night out, pull out your bejeweled sweater for an art-house electro pop act, Leslie and the Lys. Large and in charge, Leslie is once again rocking her stretch pants and taking no prisoners.

As Billy mentioned earlier in his preview post:

As you can see Leslie is a big, beautiful, and glamorous woman, and she is not afraid to point it out in her music.  In fact, I think that is the entire point.  She has songs about her luscious lady parts, her extensive sweater collection, and her fabulous gold pants. - Billy McManus, Seattle Show Gal

Afraid of Figs @ Neumos |   03/11   |   7 pm    |   $8 dos

If blue eyeshadow and spandex stirrups aren’t your thing,  lay your fears to rest. The new local band, Afraid of Figs is putting on a show at Neumos. Described as “Barenaked Ladies meets Cake,” the Figs are equally humorous, tongue-in-cheek as Leslie and the LY’s are. Afraid of Figs come at the listener with lyrics that lament on the trepidations of having to live a sustainable lifestyle. Recycling, for one, eating vegans another. A few choice lyrics are:

I hate to recycle – It’s a lot of work

Dividing garbage makes me feel just like a jerk.

Got a carbon footprint the size of Peru.

I like my S.U.V., and my hair spray too

Afraid of Figs – “The Vegan Song”
Finding bands who have fun with music is refreshing, and Afraid of Figs make me certain that they are one band to look out for.
