Your Wednesday show picks:

‣ Happy times and exuberant music at the El Rey Theatre, where Grouplove and Family of the Year hold forth. Grouplove’s debut “Never Trust a Happy Song” came out in September (that’s the video for “Tongue Tied,” above), and Family of the Year this month released its new “St. Croix” EP.
‣ Young Austin sensations the Strange Boys hit the Troubadour behind their new album “Live Music.”
‣ Australia’s Bleeding Knees Club checks in at the Satellite, with Facts on File and Saint Sea Hat supporting.
Robotanists and Tic Tic Boom get in the Halloween spirit early – costumes are encouraged for tonight’s “Haunted Hollywood” party at Harvard & Stone. [Buzz Bands LA’s Seraphina L is one of the DJs for the show.]
‣ And Cary Brothers, who last week released a new single with a note that he’s soon embarking on writing his next album, teams up with Harper Blynn for a show at the Hotel Cafe.
