Turn it Down

The Detroit-based band Electric Six earned a cult following in 2003 with the “Danger! High Voltage” single, a high-energy, disco-rock song that featured backing vocals from Jack White of The White Stripes and The Dead Weather. The track hit No. 2 on the British charts. Thursday the band returns to Lansing to play an all-ages show at The Loft. The group mixes glam and garage rock with synth-pop and disco-beats, often with some tongue-in-cheek snootiness. That confident style comes from lead singer Dick Valentine, his flamboyant influences include Queen and KISS. A couple weeks ago Electric Six released its tenth album, “Mustang,” on Metropolis Records. Opening at The Loft are My Jerusalem and Archana.

Thursday, Oct. 17 @ The Loft, 414 E. Michigan Ave., Lansing, all ages, $14, $12 adv., 8 p.m.
