Electric Six w/Residual Kid & IfIHadAHiFi
Mad Planet 533 E. Center St., Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212
Event time: 9pm
With a little help from a red-hot Jack White, Electric Six scored one of 2003’s most memorable singles with “Danger! High Voltage,” a timely slab of infectious dance-rock. The Detroit group wasn’t able to parlay the excitement around that song into lasting mainstream success, but they’ve maintained a loyal fan base through rigorous touring and a steady output of reliably fun (if less than groundbreaking) albums, which have doubled down on the group’s manic, four-on-the-floor grooves while also exploring darker, more rock-based territory. Their latest record, last year’s Fresh Blood for Tired Vampyres, frequently nods to the digital sounds of ’80s pop and synth-rock.
