McPike Park 202 S. Ingersoll St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
As comfortable backing Neko Case as they are playing with rogue R&B legend Andre Williams, The Sadies can pivot from their own psychedelicized roots rock to straight country to a medley of obscure ‘60s garage punk. And that’s just a sampling of what Canada’s best live band could pull out at any moment. Wednesday’s Central Park Sessions openers are JigJam, an Irish quartet blending some bluegrass into its sound, and Madison Americana faves WheelHouse. ALSO: Thursday, Aug. 9, at 5 pm, The Sadies back songwriter Justin Townes Earle for a set. With Nick Brown Band, Mal-O-Dua.
