In addition, Afternoons celebrate the long-awaited release of their full-length “Say Yes” on Friday night at El Cid.

@Seraphina_L recommends: Meiko celebrates the release of her third studio album “Dear You” at the Bootleg on Tuesday. [Check out “Be Mine.”] Local folk pop-rock band Banta and pop singer KETA support. Meiko also performs Saturday at Saint Rocke in Hermosa Beach.
