Busy week at Bend's Silver Moon - The Bulletin

The three performance spaces at Silver Moon Brewing (24 NW Greenwood Ave., Bend) will be buzzing with music over the next seven days. They often are, but this week is particularly strong, so below are some highlights. Oh and you can, of course, learn more and buy tickets at silvermoonbrewing.com. Thursday, March 26, sees the return of Metalachi, the popular Los Angeles-based band that blends heavy metal and mariachi music. There's a reason they keep coming back to Bend; people here love 'em, probably because their shows are a blast. 7 p.m., $20.80. Friday, March 27, is a big one, especially 'round these parts: Larry and His Flask play their first show in Central Oregon in seven years. This rousing folk-punk sextet is one of the best (and most successful) bands ever to come out of this region, and they're back together for a few shows to celebrate the 15th anniversary of their 2011 album "All That We Know." 7 p.m., $20 in advance, $25 at the door. On Saturday, March 28, the California country band Dominique and the Diamonds will visit the Moon. Fronted by Colombian-American spitfire Dominique Gomez, the band's twang comes with the same sort of gently hippie-fied, spaced-out Bakersfield vibe as the legendary Flying Burrito Brothers. 7 p.m., $12.24. Also on Saturday, March 28, a couple of punky rock bands from Los Angeles will roll into town for a show at Silver Moon. Buckets -- that's it, just Buckets -- play catchy, fuzzed-out, riff-bomb rockers. The Dumes rock, too, but in a slightly more '90s alternative loud-quiet-loud sort of way. Likeminded local combo Palo Sopraño opens. 7 p.m., $14.38.
