Above: South London artist Daniel Woolhouse does business as Deptford Goth, and his album “Life After Defo” has drawn acclaim for its “bleak beauty.” Deptford Goth plays the Echo on Tuesday along with SOHN.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Beck and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, conducted David Campbell, will be joined at Disney Hall on Sunday night by a host of special guests in a performance of music from the artist’s sheet-music-only release “Song Reader.” Collaborators will include guests Jarvis Cocker, Jenny Lewis, Jack Black, Jon Brion, Van Dyke Parks, Childish Gambino, Jonathan Gold, Juanes, Josh Kun, Roger Manning, Jr., John C. Reilly and Moses Sumney, among others. Should be special.

@Seraphina_L recommends: Body Parts continue their residency at the Satellite on Monday in support of their debut “Fire Dream.” They’re joined by a stellar group of fellow local bands including James Supercave (who haven’t played a show in a while since they decided to record a debut full-length) and Kera & the Lesbians. Air Life, aka drummer Taylor Dextor (Body Parts, Hunter Hunted) and Troi Irons, also makes its live debut. Buzz Bands DJs will be on deck to spin tunes throughout the night.
