Thursday, oh so eclectic:

‣ Billy Bragg visits the El Rey Theatre behind his new album “Tooth & Nail.” Kim Churchill supports.
‣ Jamie Lidell brings the funk-soul-electro fun of his new self-titled album to the Echoplex, supported by Empress Of and Ludwig and Persik.
‣ The new album (and, as it turns out, forthcoming graphic novel) from Ghostface Killah and producer Adrian Younge is titled “12 Reasons To Die,” and it’s one reason to party tonight at the Mayan. Blu & Exile featuring Dag Savage and Roc Marciano support, with DJ sets from the Gaslamp Killer.
‣ And NYC’s Caveman [pictured] plays the Troubadour behind next week’s release of its new, self-titled album. Pure Bathing Culture opens.
