Eight Gigs: Separate Spines

Sat., Jan. 16, 8 p.m., Third Space, $5

?

Separate Spines are full of indie ambition. No label, no management, no problem. Even the venues Separate Spines seeks out are living rooms and art spaces with no age requirements and only enough legroom for dueling drum kits and a keyboard stand. The local electronica group is self-releasing its Voli EP and booking its own corresponding Northern California tour of release shows. If you can’t locate Thursday’s secret Midtown house show, there’s the far more space-friendly Third Space Art Collective show in Davis on Saturday. 946 Olive Drive in Davis, www.facebook.com/separatespines.
