Detroit Wheels: Early Motor City Stories The auto industry exploded in Detroit in the early 20th century, with dozens of fledgling carmakers all trying to get in on the game — like the one-time Ford rival the E-M-F Company, whose quality control issues earned it the nickname “Every Morning Fix-it.” Rare cars from this era will be on display in this special collaboration between the Detroit Historical Society and the Ford Piquette Plant Museum, which includes ten rare cars from DHS’s collections plus two others from private collections. It’s a great opportunity for the public to get an up-close look at these rare early vehicles. From July 16-Aug. 17; Ford Piquette Plant Museum, 461 Piquette Ave, Detroit; fordpiquetteplant.org. Tickets are $10 with guided tours available for an additional fee.

Tyvek 20th anniversary In its 20 years of existence, Tyvek has emerged as one of Detroit’s best contemporary rock bands thanks to its scrappy raw power and ability to shapeshift over time. Lately, the band’s lineup features Shelley Salant (Shells, XV) on guitar, Alex Glendening (Deadbeat Beat) on bass, and Jake Kmiecik (Bonny Doon) on drums; its 2023 record Overground wisely brought prominent saxophone from Emily Roll into the fold. But for its 20th anniversary party at Outer Limits Lounge, the band is celebrating its origins by performing a set with its throwback five-piece lineup of frontman Kevin Boyer along with guitarists Heath Heemsbergen (Little Claw, Ugh!) and Damon Sturdivant (Puffy Areolas, Revigorant), Larry (The Intended, Isles of ESP) on bass, and Matt Z (Mountains and Rainbows) on drums. Here’s to 20 more! Starts at 8 p.m. on Saturday, July 12; Outer Limits Lounge, 5507 Caniff St., Detroit. Tickets are $23.18.
