Above: The giant tree in Portland’s Overlook Park is the star of the video for “Ohm,” a song from the new Yo La Tengo album “Fade,” out this week. The long-running indie band takes an unusual spin through SoCal this week, playing Fingerprints Records in Long Beach on Wednesday and Amoeba in Hollywood on Thursday.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Eric McFadden, the guitar god who among his other credits fronted the vaunted Bay Area band Liar in the ’90s and spent three years shredding for George Clinton, has been doing a Wednesday night residency at the Mint. This week’s installment will be a little special, as he will be joined by Nels Cline and Mike Watt.

@Seraphina_L recommends: Jake Bugg at the Troubadour. Sounding a little like the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Oasis all at once,  this 18-year-old folk-rock singer-songwriter’s popularity has shot through the roof during the last year. He’s touring in support of his self-titled debut and plays a sold-out show on Wednesday. Valerie June supports.
