Australian rockers POND have postponed a U.S. tour that was scheduled to bring them to the Teragram Ballroom this month, citing “unforeseen circumstances,” the band said in a statement. Their Jan. 24 L.A. show has been rescheduled for May 21 at the Teragram. A digital-reissue of the band’s 2017 album “The Weather,” produced by Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker, came out this week.

► No lineup yet, but HARD Summer announced the dates for its 2018 festival: Aug. 4-5.

► No lineup yet, but the third annual GIRLSCHOOL will go off Feb. 2-4 at the Bootleg Theater.
