Happy middle of the week. Here’s your Wednesday:

‣ Minneapolis’ Polica visits the Fonda Theatre behind their new album “Shulamith,” just out on Mom+ Pop Records.  Marijuana Deathsquads open.
‣ Back with a new EP titled “AHJ,” Albert Hammond Jr. holds forth at the El Rey Theatre, with Rathborne opening. That’s the new video for “St. Justice,” above.
The Happy Hollows rokc the Bootleg Bar behind their new album “Amethyst,” supported by Son of Stan and NVUS,
‣ Spencer Krug, as Moonface, brings the music from his new release “Julia With Blue Jeans On” to the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
Autolux plays at the Constellation Room, and wouldn’t it be great if a new album in 2014 were in the stars?
‣ And desert-rock legend Howe Gelb plays an early set at the Hotel Café behind his latest release “The Coincidentalist.” Later at that venue, local folkies Run River North continues their residency.
