Thunderpussy heats things up with a Thanksgiving Eve concert at Neumos.

Wed, Nov 25
Thunderpussy
Before attempting to act civil at your family Thanksgiving gathering, let your wild side run free to the rocking sounds of Seattle’s Thunderpussy. With singer Molly Sides done dancing up a freakish storm in A Glimmer of Hope or Skin or Light and drummer Lena Simon back from La Luz’s world tour, the women of Thunderpussy are ready to howl and writhe the night away once more. Attendance can serve as your (legitimate) excuse for oversleeping and not waking up until dinnertime. Neumos, $10

Redwood's 10th Anniversary Party #2
Capitol Hill’s Redwood Tavern ends its two-weekend anniversary celebration with a night of local indie and punk acts. Dude York headlines the festivities with a host of hooky songs from its yet-to-be-announced follow-up to 2014′s Dehumanize. Snuff Redux, Great Spiders, and Koda Sequoia round out the bill. With the Redwood slated for closure, you might as well make the most of its kind confines while it’s still around. Redwood, $7–$12

Sun, Nov 29
Dave B
After releasing the LP Punch Drunk in October, rising Seattle MC Dave B is ready to show it off live. Warm up with the summery R&B vibe of the new material at the Crocodile. Nyles Davis and Vitamin D join the concert’s lineup to get the party started. The Crocodile, $10–$15

The Harmon and Harriet Kelley Collection of African American Art: Works on Paper
Drawing from one of the richest private collections of African American art from the early 1900s to the present, The Harmon and Harriet Kelley Collection of African American Art: Works on Paper collects abstract and figurative drawings, etchings, watercolors, screen prints, and more. It’s a cultural history lesson via art that touches on post–Civil War regionalism, the Great Depression, the civil rights movement, and the calm moments of strength in everyday life. Northwest African American Museum, $7
