STARFUZZ
Three hours of music needn’t cost a lot. Or anything at all. Check out this winning pop-rock quartet for free tonight at 1515 Restaurant, 1515 Market St. 9 p.m.
ORBIT SERVICE
Dream pop, experimental electronics and languorous melodies collide in Orbit Service, which celebrates the release of its CD “Songs of Eta Carinae” on Beta-lactam Ring Records, Saturday with George&Caplin and Day Dissolved Dream at the Walnut Room, 3131 Walnut St. 8 p.m. $6.
ULTIMATE MUSIC XPERIENCE
The two-day Ultimate Music Xperience lets up-and-coming locals battle it out for votes and ultimately a spot on the 35th Capitol Hill People’s Fair stage. Saturday and Sunday at Bender’s, 314 E. 13th Ave. 10 a.m.-6 p.m. daily. Free.
BLUE BLOODED GIRLS
Keen-eared locals will know these guys from their other bands (Blusom, Maraca 5-0, Acrobat Down), but they’re not playing surf or indie rock anymore. Think insane hammer-on histrionics at ear-melting volumes. With The Brunettes, Killfix, and Life and Times on Wednesday at the Larimer Lounge, 2721 Larimer St. 8 p.m. $8.
