Labor Day shows you can catch if you’re not seeing the Beach Boys at the L.A. County Fair:

‣ Jonathan Bates brings the devastating electro of his new project Big Black Delta to the Satellite, kicking off a monthlong residency celebrating the release of its first album “BBDLP1.” Kate Crash and Tennis System open. [If you haven’t already, check out BBD’s “Huggin & A Kissin” and “Capsize.”]
‣ Dan Deacon, Future Islands, Lucky Dragons and Jon Barba team up for a show at cozy Pehrspace. Should be interesting – get info on Facebook.
‣ Death Kit (pictured) visits the Bootleg Theater on a bill with Young Hunting and the Electra. Not a residency but still a free show. [Check out “Draw Blood,” new from Death Kit.]
‣ L.A.’s Kissing Cousins and San Diego’s Writer team up for this month’s residency at the Echo; opening night features support from Sneakpeek, SISU and Kristeen Young.
‣ And at It’s a School Night at Bardot, Carina Round and Nightmare & the Cat.
