New Old School: The Ambitions

The Ambitions
A BREATH OF booty-shaking, sweat-dripping, old-school fresh air amid a sea of jagged pop and aggressive hardcore, the Ambitions bring something to the D.C. scene it hasn't been notorious for — fun.

This soulful garage band with rock chops, led by charistmatic frontwoman Caz Gardiner, doesn't just recycle '60s pop forms, it reinvents them. Check them out at Saturday's Valentine's Day bash at the Black Cat gig with politically charged punk-poppers the Electricutions.

» Black Cat, 1811 14th St. NW; Sat., 8 p.m., $8; 202-667-4490. (U St.-Cardozo)
