Wristwatch

This two-day blowout hosted by the local No Coast record label showcases a wide range of intense independent music. April 11 at Mickey’s features an opening set by label honcho/birthday boy Bobby Hussy’s Wristwatch project, along with a reunion show by local hardcore outfit Pyroklast, and heavy visitors Edging and In Lieu. April 12 at the Crystal is anchored by Screamin’ Cyn Cyn & the Pons, which started in the early oughts as a punk rock duo by Cynthia Burnson and Shane O’Neill and grew into a world-beater quartet. It’s always a special occasion when O’Neill is back from the East Coast (where he currently writes the Style Memo newsletter for the Washington Post). Saturday also features frenzied punk rock by Hussy’s trio Whippets, along with Werewolf Jones, Educational Davis and Insula Iscariot.

No Coasting Fest. $15.
