The holidays are a great time to come together, reconnect with friends and family, share sumptuous meals, exchange gifts and, after all that face time, get far, far away from home and check out some awesome music.

This year, we are doubly blessed. Local favorites Pearlene are celebrating the 10th anniversary of one of the best albums ever written and recorded in Cincinnati, For Western Violence & Brief Sensuality, with a free show at the Northside Tavern Friday night.

The blues-spiked Americana rockers are offering fans the first-ever double-disc, 180 gram vinyl version of the 2007 album, which comes with the Rosemary Girl EP and some unrelated tunes from their Sons of Anarchy album -- featuring songs from the popular TV show -- on the local We Have Become Vikings Records label.

The limited-edition copy of the classic release features the original 9 tunes plus the bonus material in a double-gatefold, gold-stamped cover version with only 300 copies available for sale.
