Eight Gigs: Cherry Glazerr

Sun., June 12, 7 p.m., Harlow’s Restaurant & Nightclub, $12

Led by singer-guitarist Clementine Creevey, the tongue-in-cheek lyrics and assured rock riffs of Los Angeles quartet Cherry Glazerr (named after NPR radio host Cherry Glaser) are well worth the cover for entry. Creevey’s career dates back to her solo work in high school, when she made music in her bedroom under the name Clembutt. Today, the group brings levity with tracks like “Grilled Cheese” (“If you want a bite / Go fly a kite”) as well as darker imagery in songs like “Nurse Ratched” (“Your eyes like daggers burn through his skin / You’re so cold master where do I begin.”) 2708 J Street, http://cherry-glazerr.com.
