ARTS Pick: Keys N Krates

With the lively surnames Tune, Matisse and Flo, the electronic fusion act Keys N Krates lays out its artistic agenda by playing instruments live and pulling in beats from all directions. Fans have deemed the group to be the world’s first trap band because of the power trio’s performances on drums, keys and turntable.

Tuesday 1/26. $18-20, 8pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4980.
