Above: That’s Au Revoir Simone‘s video for “Somebody Who,” a track off their latest album “Move In Spectrums.” The Brooklyn trio stops by the Echoplex on Tuesday.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Radical Face – the nom de tune of Florida singer-songwriter-storyteller Ben Cooper – is in the middle of ambitious album trilogy that this week sees the release of the second installment: “The Family Tree: The Branches.” It’s the powerful follow-up to 2011’s “The Family Tree: The Roots,” which kicked off the concept series. On Thursday he brings his often-dark story-songs to the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

@Seraphina_L recommends: It’s hard not to enjoy the Swedes when they cross the pond. The Sounds visit the Belasco Theater in support of their forthcoming album “Weekend.” Chicago’s Gemini Club opens.
