‣ Brooklyn trio Hospitality [see our January post] visits the Echo behind their new album “Trouble,” with Air Waves and Matt Kivel opening.
‣ The Animation Block Valentine’s Day Showcase, which fuses live music with “love”-themed cartoons, brings San Francisco’s Blackbird Blackbird and and local garage-popper Colleen Green to the Troubadour.
‣ Power trio the Vim Dicta joins up with My Satellite to rock the Viper Room.
‣ Double your fun at the Bootleg: Utah’s Desert Noises visit the Bootleg Bar – their album “27 Ways” is out March 25 – with the Americans opening. In the Bootleg Theater, it’s instrumental rockers Secret Chiefs 3.
‣ This month’s free Kennedy Administration variety show at Echoes Under Sunset features musical guests Busy Living, comedian Beth Stelling, magician Greg Wilson and more.
