RECKLESS KELLY
CAT’S CRADLEWhen the Sugar Hill label welcomed Texas rockers Reckless Kelly in 2003, the band members were urban cowboys, pairing Skynyrd licks with piss-and-vinegar vocals and fat lines of fiddle and mandolin. Four years later, they’re still some of the wildest roots-rockers around, and their crackling soul and punk-ish delivery still charms plenty. With Sons of Bill at 8:45 p.m. for $15. Kathy Justice
