‣ Phantogram, the musical duo of Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter, headlines the Palladium behind their new album “Voices,” with White Sea opening.
‣ The Thermals visit the Satellite behind their latest album “Desperate Ground,” with Tashaki Miyaki and Colleen Green supporting. Did we mention the Thermals now have their own video game?
