Los Angeles band Mexican Slum Rats self-describe as an \u201cemo-jazz fusion rock band.\u201d The only thing about that loaded term that I\u2019m sure of is that it gives me the shivers. <\/p>\n

So allow me to maybe spare you some unnecessary skeevies. This rather good DIY band blends melodic emo heart, math-rock flair and refreshing horns in a way that dazzles. They\u2019re arriving on the release of strong, brand-new album I Can\u2019t Tell You but I Know That It\u2019s Mine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Opening are lauded South Florida indie act Cannibal Kids and Gainesville\u2019s The Nancys, a must-hear young indie-rock band making some of the best songs to come out of Florida right now.<\/p>\n

8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23, Will\u2019s Pub, $15.<\/p>\n
