Your to-do list for the evening:

‣ With a new EP “Headcage” out in January and the album “Beams” on the way this spring, Matthew Dear visits the Eagle Rock Center for the Ars, supported by Mini Mansions and ESP. [You can download Dear’s the title track to “Headcage” here.]
‣ Ra Ra Riot, whose L.A. show in November was postponed because of singer Wes Miles’ voice ailments, swing back into town to headline the El Rey Theatre. The Submarines and PAPA [see our interview with Darren Weiss] open.
