We should all be so lucky as Lou Thomas. He gets to pluck ever so gently and bashfully as a member of the unreasonably good A Weather, then groove on over to his other project, Chores, and let it all out with some straightforward, blistering rock. The five tracks off the EP Chores is releasing tonight, Life Is Hard, sound terrific, fueled by slashing guitar solos, and fierce, committed vocals from co-lead singer Jada Pierce. (If ever a name was ready for musical stardom, it's Jada Pierce.) If that's not enough for you, the band is giving away free copies of Life Is Hard to everyone in attendance at this show, so you really have no excuse to miss it. Unless you're agoraphobic. In that case, you may stay home.
