Roger Clyne is best remembered by fans of ’90s alt-rock as the frontman of the Refreshments, whose hit “Banditos” was a fun-and-catchy blast of pop goodness. After that band ran its course, Clyne paired up with some pals from Arizona to become Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers, the alt-country-tinged group that will headline the Ogden Theatre two days before Christmas, Dec. 23. The Railbenders will open the show. Tickets are already on sale.($16-$22, )
Tesla has nothing against a good party. And the band is celebrating the 20th anniversary of “Five Man Acoustical Jam” — the record that broke the Top 20 and sold a million-plus copies — with the Twisted Wires Acoustic tour, which stops at the Ogden Theatre Nov. 2. Tickets on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday. Built By Stereo will open. ($35-$40, )
The Reverend Horton Heat is a charmer, and the psychobilly rager is also a consummate showman. The band, built around frontman Jim Heath, is legendary for its onstage energy, not to mention its outrageous touring schedule. They’re not as prolific in the studio, as they’re still touring behind 2009’s “Laughin’ and Cryin’ with the Reverend Horton Heat.” The band will play the Ogden Theatre on Jan. 28. (They’ll also play the Belly Up in Aspen on the 21st, the Fox in Boulder on the 26th and the Black Sheep in Colorado Springs on the 27th.) Tickets are already on sale. (Denver show prices: $20-$25, )
