Let’s face it: for most of us, especially in the college dominated town of Boston and Cambridge, Labor Day is an illusury vacation. For though many of us have the day off from work, we must nevertheless contend with the raucous convulsions of a city in the grips of a massive person migration.

So whether your moving, helping a friend, or trying to stay apart from the fray, you’ll need something to unwind at the end of this ‘vacation’ day. A solid option awaits you at ZUZU, where each Monday the Rad Castle crew offers some sultry (and free!) sonic delights for the drinking-age crowd. TONIGHT is an especially relaxed affair. Up from New Orleans, THE LEVEETOPPERS delivers that old-timey bluegrass twang with a spark of soul. Cambridge acoustic folk punk scrunchers OLD HAT and delicate latin-inspired soothers SO SOL will help ya forget the hectic combustions of earlier today.
