Tuesday night, psych-rock group Stucky Jackson & The Boys headlined a full night of rock. Fellow local psych-rock band Something in the Trees opened the night, and Montreal quartet Kid Lucifer came from afar to fill in the middle set. Film artist and Seattleite Blazinspace topped off the evening by providing each set with trippy visuals.

Something in the Trees kicks off the evening with their dreamy sound.
The band delights with their psychedelic guitar work.
While ethereal, Something in the Trees still have moments of hard rocking.

Heyes finds an easy flow.
Not one for a static performance, bassist Sam Schuette whips around, the joy of playing evident in his motions.
The smile on Schuette's face never fades.
Letendre doesn't only thunder on the drums, he also makes some fantastic faces.
Schuette provides a near-constant, electric rhythm.
Kid Lucifer are unapologetic in the vibrancy of their sound.
All three bands were accompanied by mind-blowing visuals, put on by local artist and filmmaker Blazinspace.
Combined with Blazinspace's stunning visuals, Kid Lucifer provides an experience to be remembered.

Coleman, a recent addition to the Boys, proves his worth throughout their set.
Samakar projects the soul of music onto the crowd.
Jackson's baritone is beyond description and has to be heard to be understood.
Jackson ain't the only one sporting impressive whiskers. Cable rocks a born-on-the-fourth-of-July look.
The Boys and visual artist Blazinspace make sure the audience knows it's time to get down.
