Seeing those kinds of shows live can bring you into the realm of, ‘I really want to do that.’” CLUB 100 YEARS 10PM FRIDAY, AUGUST 25TH: READY STEADY SOUL CLUB WHOLE LOTTA SOUL DANCE PARTY! $3 RARE SOUL DJS 10PM SATURDAY, AUGUST 26TH: PRETTY DRUNK, OREGON DIRT $5 TRASHGRASS 933 Olive St | 541-687-4643 Tucker returns to Eugene behind her latest project, Filthy Friends, a supergroup featuring Peter Buck of R.E.M., Scott McCaughey of Young Fresh Fellows and The Minus 5, the Fastback’s legendary guitarist Kurt Bloch, as well as drummer Linda Pitmon of The Baseball Project and The Minus 5. The band’s debut album, Invitation, is out Aug. 25 on Kill Rock Stars, and the record is a mix of rock styles from classic to punk. “It’s a really eclectic,” Tucker says. “A Television influence. A T. Rex thing.” Tucker wrote all the words and vocal melodies, while Buck provided the music. And Tucker says her words are 830 Olive St | 541-343-3204 luckeysclub.com • In the heart of the Barmuda Triangle 20 A ugust 24, 2017 • eugeneweekly.com inspired, in part, by America’s “troubled political times.” Album-track “Any Kind of Crowd” is so R.E.M. it’d fit nicely on the Athens’ band’s classic Life’s Rich Pageant, only with Patti Smith on vocals. “It’s a different style,” Tucker says, contrasting Filthy Friends with her better-known work with Sleater-Kinney and Carrie Brownstein. “This is the songwriter from R.E.M.,” she adds. “You could say R.E.M. helped invent indie rock. Getting to work with him is something I really enjoy. There’s a lot of room for experimentation.” Filthy Friends play alongside terrific Seattle indie rockers Wimps 10 pm Friday, Aug. 25, at Hi-Fi Music Hall Lounge; $15, 21-plus. — Will Kennedy
