Check traffic reports, check wallet, check out a show:

‣ Ximena Sariñana, fresh off tour with Fitz & the Tantrums and with her English-language debut (produced by Dave Sitek and Greg Kurstin) coming Aug. 2, headlines the Echoplex. That’s her video for “Shine Down,” above, which we previewed before her Silverlake Jubilee performance.
‣ The Monkees’ 45th Anniversary Tour plays the last of its 30 dates at the Greek Theatre, with three-quarters of the original band – Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork – running through the old hits.
‣ Dirt Bird, the solo project of singer Claire McKeown of Shadow Shadow Shade, celebrates the release of its album “Summer Night Hours” with a show at HM 157 (3110 N. Broadway).
‣ And it’s Sarah McLachlan at the Hollywood Bowl.
