STORIES—Branching out from their focus on music, film, and visual art made by women, Siren Nation’s launching the Broadcast (get it?), their all-lady live storytelling event tonight, with com-edian Kirsten Kuppenbender, former Mercury reporter/author of Sex from Scratch Sarah Mirk, and a whole slew of awesome ladies telling tales of failure (!), plus hilarious host Amy Miller.

The Secret Society, 116 NE Russell, 8 pm, $12-15


MUSIC—Australia’s Tame Impala have injected a shot into the third eye of vintage psychedelia by adding slippery R&B synths, taut dance-floor beats, and glossy ’80s movie-soundtrack balladry to all those smokestack guitars and bluesy riffing. With two classic albums under their belt and a third out in July, they just keep getting bigger and better. NED LANNAMANN
