Here’s to a wonderful Wednesday:

‣ Soulful U.K. trio London Grammar plays a sold-out Troubadour behind its debut album “If You Wait,” with L.A.-based singer-songwriter Jaymes Young opening.
‣ Post-hardcore quintet Touché Amoré celebrates this week’s release of its new album “Is Survived By” with a show at Los Globos. Pennsylvania’s Balance & Composure, also celebrating an album release, and Vow open.
‣ O.C.-bred duo Pop Noir headlines the Echo behind its new EP “Jealousy,” with Moons of Mars and Beat Club opening.
‣ It’s a night of music and magic at Largo, where The 88 play the tunes and rocker-turned actor/entertainer Rob Zabrecky is up to his new tricks.
‣ Norwegian songstress Susanne Sundfør, whose album “The Silicone Veil” is No. 1 in her homeland and who collaborated with M83 on the “Oblivion” soundtrack, headlines the Bootleg Bar, with Body Parts supporting.
‣ And it says here that Hanson is back. The Oklahoma-bred brother band released a new album “Anthem” this summer (that’s the video for “Get the Girl Back,” above), and the trio visits the House of Blues Anaheim tonight (with the House of Blues on the Sunset Strip on tap Thursday). No word on whether they’ll be serving the Hansons’ new brand of beer, Mmmhops.
