Cherub
8:30 p.m. • First Avenue • 18-plus • $15-$17
Nashville's ultratight sex-pop duo Cherub is returning to Minneapolis for the fourth year in a row. Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber's smooth, electro-pop music is hedonism at its brightest; the fun-loving pair sing about substances and sex from a purely pleasure-seeking standpoint. Cherub gained popularity through its rambunctious live productions and cultivated online traction by releasing upbeat, infectious jams (such as Hype Machine monster "Doses and Mimosas") using a pay-what-you-want format. Indie-pop act Mystery Skulls and DJ Fortebowie open. Alex Nelson
