ARTS Pick: Cashless Society

Deriving its name from the loss of the Man in Black himself, Cashless Society embarks on a high-spirited, rambunctious mission to preserve the unique rockabilly sound that erupted from Memphis, Tennessee in the 1950s and ’60s. If audiences pause long enough between boisterous sets, they may notice that the lead guitarist donning the swagger of Cash and perfectly slicked back hair is precocious 13-year-old James Tamelcoff III (above). The live performance suggests that anyone can appreciate true rockabilly music–even those who aren’t old enough to drive themselves to the show.

Friday 7/5 Free, 10:30pm. The Whiskey Jar, 227 W. Main St., Downtown Mall. 202-1549.
