Department stores are starting to put the Christmas decorations out, so you know what that means: Fall\u2019s here! And with it comes a whole new slate of live music, plus a brand new venue, The Sylvee<\/a>, which will open on Sept. 27 with a show by Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats. I preview that one below as well as 49 more shows scheduled in Madison this season. Chances are you\u2019ll find something you like, or something that at the very least sounds just dumb enough to try<\/a>.<\/span>\n Majestic Theatre, Sept. 6<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s not hard to draw a line from Guided By Voices to Car Seat Headrest. For one, both bands specialize in snarky, lo-fi indie rock. And at the rate Will Toledo \u2014 Car Seat Headrest\u2019s driving creative force \u2014 is going, the prolific songwriter seems likely to eclipse Robert Pollard\u2019s output. And GBV has 26<\/em> albums! 26! Car Seat Headrest\u2019s latest, Twin Fantasy (Face to Face)<\/em>, is a reworking<\/a> of one of Toledo\u2019s earliest and best loved recordings, which success-wise is pretty much a sure thing. We\u2019ll just go ahead and call that one Toledo\u2019s no-hitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n You might also like:<\/em><\/span> They Might Be Giants<\/strong>, the equally prolific but far sillier Brooklyn indie rock legends, Oct. 23 at the Barrymore Theatre.<\/span>\n Live on King Street, Sept. 7<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Beats Antique is possibly the only artist you\u2019ll see this fall that has an onstage belly dancer. But that\u2019s not the only strange and unusual aspect to the world music stars. Beats Antique has a sound rooted in electronic music, but it\u2019s informed heavily by everything from hip-hop to afro-beat to old school jazz. And seeing as this is Live on King we\u2019re talking about, \u201cfree\u201d is a pretty decent price for such a musically inclusive experience. This is the #LOKS season finale.<\/p>\n You might also like:<\/em><\/span> Moon Hooch<\/strong>, a sax-and-percussion duo that combines jazz fusion with dance rhythms, Sept. 29 at Majestic.<\/span>\n High Noon Saloon, Sept. 8<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Though Meg Golz and Eve Wilczewski both originally hail from Freeport, Ill., Seasaw is very much a Madison band. The charming duo (and recent tracksuit aficionados<\/a>) is releasing a new album, Big Dogs<\/em>, and would very much like for you to come out and celebrate with them. And their bill is stacked<\/em>, too. Joining them are Madison hip-hop hybrids Son! and Kenny Hoopla as well as Milwaukee soul singer Lex Allen.<\/p>\n You might also like:<\/em><\/span> Queen Hilma<\/strong>, a pair of Green Bay native twins who play a folk-inflected take on alternative rock, Oct. 3 at The Shitty Barn in Spring Green.<\/span>\nCar Seat Headrest<\/h2>\n
