Though Blue Up? singer/guitarist Rachael (just Rachael) once worked as a stripper and then wrote a song about it, her Minnesota all-women trio is definitely not Bikini Kill. The aggressive “Exhibitionist” aside, the band’s Spool Forka Dish is breathy, multilayered, and impressionistic. Rather than blast, songs like “Blasting XTC” lilt, sometimes too preciously but other times with undeniable melodic appeal. With Glazed Baby at 10 p.m. at 15 Minutes, 1030 15th St. NW. $5. (202) 408-1855. (Mark Jenkins)
