EDITOR’S PICK
Heartless Bastards at Ardmore Music Hall
May 11
Ardmore

Punk, garage rock, blues, country—Heartless Bastards have had their way with all of it over six albums and 18 years. Helmed by unflappable Ohio native Erika Wennerstrom, the road-tested quartet always shoots from the hip and aims for the heart. Even if their message isn’t always easy to hear, the rewards are ample—especially live. Visit ardmoremusichall.com.
