The picks for this week’s shows are particularly female-heavy. Ch-check them out!
3/9 LAURA VEIRS, The Old Believers, Cataldo @ Spaceland
Portland-based singer/songwriter Laura Veirs’ pastoral, sun-drenched lyrics reminisce in the simple pleasures of mid-summer days. Hear her luring, stripped-down folk rock songs on Tuesday night at Spaceland.
3/10 LITTLE BOOTS, Dragonette, Class Actress, DJ Paul V @ El Rey Theatre
Despite being compared to Kylie Minogue and Lilly Allen, Victoria Hesketh, a.k.a. Little Boots, definitely brings her own sparkle to the UK electropop scene. Catch her at the El Rey on Wednesday.
3/11 SLOW CLUB @ Spaceland
UK folk-rock duo Slow Club sound like a talented, non-tone deaf version of the Moldy Peaches. Notable for their use of unusual objects as instruments, see them Thursday at Spaceland.
3/12 THE HAPPY HOLLOWS, The Veils @ Troubadour
Female-fronted L.A. trio the Happy Hollows dish out robust rock. See Sarah Negahdari and the rest of the band, Friday at the Troubadour.
3/13 YOU SAY PARTY! WE SAY DIE! @ Echoplex
The five-piece Canadian new wave, punk-dance band comes to the Echoplex on Saturday.
3/14 GEOGRAPHER, The Picture Atlantic @ Cinespace
Geographer is one of those lesser know bands you need to hear. Rich vocals and interesting synth sequences combine to create groove-worthy songs. Catch them Sunday for one last hurrah before the start of another long workweek.
