Sex Scenes
FPC’s January fests lineup starts with a real banger representing the state’s punk rock scene. Madison is ably represented by Wristwatch, which on record is a home recording project by Bobby Hussy and Tyler Spatz but morphs into a blazing four-piece live; We Should Have Been DJs, a veteran trio of rockers with a new album in the can in 2023 and on the way soon (we hope); and catchy-crunchy trio Lunar Moth. Milwaukee’s Sex Scenes just released a blazing new EP, Fed Up (three songs in five minutes!), their first since 2019 and featuring a new lead singer, Sarah Turbo. Also on the bill is the delightfully un-Googleable Gridlock. Tickets at ticketmaster.com. The series of Fests runs for five nights across eight genres from Jan. 5-27 at three different FPC venues.
