There was love in the air on Tuesday night at the Wiltern, where Angel Olsen and band, dressed as if they were dream dates for a Valentine’s Day dance, played a set heavy on songs from her latest album “My Woman.” Olsen played nine of the 10 songs from last September’s release while keeping the mood light at the sold-out show. Olsen also played half the songs on 2014’s “Burn Your Fire for No Witness,” and she closed the night by covering the Motels’ 1979 gem “Total Control.

Jonathan Richman injected the most levity into the night in his set leading into the headliners, and Chris Cohen opened the night.
