Eight Gigs: The Lique

Thu., March 31, 7 p.m., District 30, no cover

Rapper Rasar amazed Sacramento last year when he played a killer set at Harlow’s, opening for Joe Kye. A lot has happened to him since he moved to Las Vegas a couple of years ago, the biggest thing being his new band, the Lique, which has been killing it. It even made the cover of Las Vegas Weekly. As frontman, he delivers quick-witted, rapid-fire verses over funky, jazzy grooves that are sure to get the stiffest of wallflowers shaking their hips. The Lique makes its Sacramento debut Thursday, March 31. Don’t miss a chance to see this hometown hero make good. 1022 K Street, www.thelique.com.
