Sugar Dixx was formerly know as Sugar Dicks, which had the honor as being named one of Flagpole’s Worst Band Names of 2007. The band, a side project of ex-Some Animal members Gabe Vodicka (Longlegged Woman) and Roy Coughlin, plays a lo-fi mix of garage and folk rock. Augusta’s Language Arts plays poppy indie rock, and features Jamie McGaw, who is also a former member of Some Animal, on drums. Local act Little Francis plays bluesy roots music inspired by ’50s rock ‘n’ roll and church music. - Trisha Klein
