The options for live music this week include a cutting-edge rock show at the Smoothie King Center, a modern jazz saxophone star, a reunion from the New Orleans New Wave scene of the 1980s and an all-star celebration of the Clash.<\/p>\n

NINE INCH NAILS<\/h3>\n

THURSDAY, SMOOTHIE KING CENTER<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nine Inch Nails kicks off the second North American leg of the acclaimed “Peel It Back Tour” at the Smoothie King Center on Thursday. The show returns frontman Trent Reznor to the city he formerly called home.<\/p>\n

Reznor was a bitter, alienated young man when he composed Nine Inch Nails\u2019 1989 debut album, \u201cPretty Hate Machine,\u201d which established him as industrial rock\u2019s melodic man in black. He first visited New Orleans for a show at Tipitina\u2019s. He eventually moved into a grand Garden District mansion and recorded NIN\u2019s 1999 album \u201cThe Fragile\u201d and other works at a studio inside a former funeral home on Magazine Street.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

His personal downward spiral into drugs and alcohol during his decade-long New Orleans residency<\/a> only made him more nihilistic. He eventually got sober and, after moving to Los Angeles, embarked on a second, prolific career scoring films.<\/p>\n

He and creative partner Atticus Ross\u00a0\u2014 now the only other \u201cofficial\u201d member of Nine Inch Nails\u00a0\u2014 won Oscars for their work on \u201cThe Social Network\u201d and \u201cSoul,\u201d sharing the latter award with New Orleans\u2019 Jon Batiste. On Sept. 19, Nine Inch Nails released \u201cTRON: Ares (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack),\u201d the first soundtrack that Reznor and Ross have issued under the band’s name.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Touring is no longer the priority it once was for Reznor. Nine Inch Nails delivered an emotional, memorable set at an improvised festival site alongside the Mississippi River just two months after Hurricane Katrina for the 2005 Voodoo Music Festival. In 2018, the band performed three consecutive nights at New Orleans’ Saenger Theatre, serving up a different setlist each night.<\/p>\n

The new tour finds Nine Inch Nails playing arenas once again. The “Peel It Back” show has been widely praised for its innovative use of visuals and other immersive effects. The emphasis on visuals perhaps reflects how much creative energy Reznor now devotes to writing music for movies.<\/p>\n

Boys Noize opens the show at 8 p.m. Tickets start at $62 at ticketmaster.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

JOSHUA REDMAN<\/h3>\n

FRIDAY, NEW ORLEANS JAZZ & BLUES MARKET<\/strong><\/p>\n

Across a recording career that spans more than three decades, saxophonist Joshua Redman has stood at the vanguard of modern jazz. On his 2023 release \u201cWhere Are We,\u201d he for the first time paired one of his quartets with a vocalist, Gabrielle Cavassa. He\u2019s clarified that the title of his 2025 release, \u201cWords Fall Short,\u201d was not in any way a commentary on the previous album.<\/p>\n

Instead, \u201cWords Fall Short\u201d finds Redman stretching out on a program of original compositions with bassist Philip Norris, drummer Nazir Ebo, pianist Paul Cornish and a few special guests\u00a0\u2014 including Cavassa. She lends her voice to the album\u2019s final track, \u201cEra\u2019s End,\u201d which is only the second Redman composition with lyrics to be released.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cIt\u2019s impossible for me to will a project into being,\u201d he has said of his latest album. \u201cThis album came out of a working environment that inspired me to dig into compositions that hadn\u2019t found a home yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Friday, Redman and his quartet play two shows at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m at the New Orleans Jazz & Blues Market on Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard in Central City. Tickets start at $31. Discounted student tickets are available.<\/p>\n

The Models were a New Wave band active in New Orleans in the early 1980s that was fronted by singer Johnny Indovina, right. After moving to Los Angeles in 1985, the members of the Models changed the band’s name to Human Drama.<\/p>\n

THE MODELS 45th ANNIVERSARY<\/h3>\n

SATURDAY, JIMMY\u2019S MUSIC CLUB<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the early 1980s, the Models were a fixture on New Orleans\u2019 New Wave\/punk scene alongside the likes of the Cold, the Dukes and Lenny Zenith & RZA. In 1985, the members of the Models moved to Los Angeles and changed the band name to Human Drama. As the more goth-leaning Human Drama, singer\/songwriter Johnny Indovina and his bandmates released albums for RCA Records and other labels and toured extensively. They built a big following in Mexico that endures to this day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

After decades of living in New York and Los Angeles, Indovina moved to Mandeville last year. On Saturday, four of the five original members of the Models\u00a0\u2014 Indovina, Michael Ciravolo, Steve Fuxan and Chuck Jung\u00a0\u2014 and drummer Jeff Oteri, filling in for original Models drummer Charlie Bouis, will celebrate the band\u2019s 45th anniversary with a show at the new incarnation of Jimmy\u2019s Music Club, 8200 Willow St., in New Orleans.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ll be joined by several special guests from New Orleans\u2019 punk\/New Wave past. The bill also includes Glamarama and a solo set by Christian Serpas. Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 plus fees.<\/p>\n

SATURDAY, CHICKIE WAH WAH<\/strong><\/p>\n

Revered British punk band The Clash performed in New Orleans only once\u00a0\u2014 on June 4, 1982, at the Warehouse. But that doesn\u2019t mean the band doesn\u2019t have a devoted local following, especially among musicians. For the fourth consecutive year, Chickie Wah Wah will host the local iteration of International Clash Day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
