To the joy of underage girls everywhere, Paris Spleen announces they are still a band. Despite a dramatic onstage breakup last fall, they will continue to deliver the goods. The goods being bass-driven disco punk, bad attitudes, and a multi-racial mélange of shirtless guys who can dance. Paris Spleen's Brooke Envy says the breakup was, "just a dumb fight" and the band plans to write new songs, record a single and tour this summer. Beyond the complications and the comedowns, Paris Spleen is Tacoma's rough gem. Perhaps their story is a coming-of-age, and this summer will be the endless kind where they fall in love, discover a dead body and are inevitably transformed. At The New Frontier Lounge with Oh, Dear! and Hotels, you can come witness Paris Spleen's new member Vaughn Kelly put some hurt on the tambourine. - Heather Loepp

[The New Frontier Lounge, with Hotels, Oh, Dear!, 9 p.m., cover TBA, 301 E. 25th St., Tacoma, 253.572.4020]
