MUSIC: Brooklyn duo Sleigh Bells might seem, judging by name alone, like an early holiday diversion. But don't be misled by the moniker. The pair produces a loud, raucous brand of noise pop/rock, awash in reverb and infectious riffs. There is no "might" at play here. It WILL get loud. Hip-hop producer AraabMUZIK opens the show. This show was rescheduled from early October, with tickets from the original date still valid for the show tonight at Water Street Music Hall (204 N. Water St., $20-$23, 8 p.m., waterstreetmusic.com).

MUSIC: If blips and beeps and 8-bit screeches are music to your ears, you won't want to missROC_Chip tonight at the Bug Jar (219 Monroe Ave.). The Future Band, Cu-Cu, Sweat, and VJ Plz will all be there, so head on down and revel in a night full of 80's and video game job. Music starts at 9 p.m., cover runs $5-$7.
ART: Katharine Clemens' senior solo exhibition, "Leave Your Dryer Lint Outdoors so a Squirrel Can Enjoy the Warm Bits of Sweaters You Love," is enigmatic as all get out, but it sure sounds cute.

For more information, visit adifferentpathgallery.com.
MUSIC: MusicaSpei presents and performs as part of the 12th Annual Rochester Early Music Festival tonight at St. Anne Church (1600 Mt. Hope Ave.).
