MATT DRISCOLL: LUSHY UPS THE SWANK AT THE NEW FRONTIER LOUNGE >>>

Not only does Lushy have a name I can relate to - having once woken up after a night of college binge drinking with the same thing written in Sharpie on my forehead - but the band, as close as musically possible, at least - personifies, '60s lounge coolness. As a musical entity, Lushy is like a Rat Pack-ready, cocktail toting, cha-cha trotting swinger - ready for whatever comes its way. Be it breezy bossa nova jams or well dressed pop, Lushy is Sean Connery-era Bond, making whatever room they're in exponentially sexier and swankier. Read the full story here.

[The New Frontier, Lushy with Greenfield, Saturday, June 6, 9 p.m., $5, 301 E. 25th Street, Tacoma, 253.572.4020]
