Get fired up for the Nashville Pussy show tonight at the Les Schwab Amphitheater. This raunchy, rock-n-roll band features Ruyter Suys (pronounced Ryder Sighs) a hard-core, in your face female guitarist who ELLE Magazine named as one of the 12 greatest female guitarists of all time. Front man and guitarist Blaine Cartwright (Suys husband FYI), Karen Cuda on bass and drummer Jeremy Thompson round out the band and together they crank out a psycho-billy sound like no other. Nashville Pussy snarls their way through sets laden with gritty songs like Hate and Whiskey, Dead Men Can’t Get Drunk and Late Great USA that are engineered to whet your appetite for whiskey, rebellion and reckless abandon. Oh, and ZZ Top are playing too. Tickets are $42-79 at monqui.ticketfly.com
