Tonight’s fare (hope to see you in Westwood):

‣ The seventh annual Also I Like to Rock series kicks off at the Hammer Museum, featuring up-and-coming U.K. electro-folk sensations Graffiti6 (that’s their video for “Stone in My Heart,” above) and L.A. indie-rock trio Eastern Conference Champions. The free show in the museum’s courtyard kicks off at 7 p.m. with a DJ set from KCRW’s Dan Wilcox. The Hammer’s galleries will be open until 9 p.m., and parking is $3 in the deck beneath the museum.
