Jay Reatard at the Independent in Jan.
If you didn't catch Jay Reatard's lightning-quick garage punk set over the summer, then 2009 is looking good for you. The Memphis-bred rocker plans to release his first studio album under indie staple Matador Records early next year, and is scheduled to deliver furious guitar riffs at the Independent Jan. 25. Tickets go on sale Sunday, Dec. 7 at 10 a.m. --Oscar Pascual
