New Years’s Eve turns into a summertime party as Zach Deputy brings his self-styled “island–infused drum-and-bass gospel ninja soul” to Pearl Street to heat up the evening and ring in 2013 with some seriously good vibes. Deputy is popular on the festival circuit for his upbeat feel-good rhythms and his jam band aesthetic. Local good-vibers The Alchemystics and Who’da Funk It open the show.

Dec. 31, 9 p.m., $20/advance, $25/door, Pearl Street Nightclub, 10 Pearl St., Northampton, (413) 586-8686, www.iheg.com.
