This week goes from 0 to 60 in about 5 shows:

‣ British songstress Adele, who postponed L.A. dates in June because of a bout of laryngitis, brings the songs from her Top 10 album “21” to the Greek Theatre, a show rescheduled from June 6. That’s her video for “Rolling in the Deep,” above. She visits the Palladium on Wednesday.
‣ Fresh from an appearance at Outside Lands, Little Dragon headlines the Roxy. The Swedes released their third album “Ritual Union” last month.
‣ South Carolina-bred songstress Nikki Lane, whose debut album “Walk of Shame” was produced by Fool’s Gold’s Lewis Pesacov and comes out next month on IAMSOUND, plays the free, RSVP-only It’s a School Night at Bardot. Also on the menu at the Hollywood Club: Damndogs, the new band featuring members of Jet.
‣ And the Eastside’s excellent residencies continue. In no particular order: Active Child at the Echo, with Electric Guest and Robotanists supporting; Robert Francis at the Bootleg Theater, with the Lonely Wild and Jack Littman opening; Stone Darling at the Satellite, with the Chances and FIDLAR supporting; and the Ross Sea Party at the Silverlake Lounge, along with Wake Up Lucid and Monte Mar.
