Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: This week holds two record release shows for a couple of local bands: Incan Abraham will celebrate their debut full-length “Tolerance” on Wednesday night (out April 8 via White Iris) with pals Vanaprasta and the Black Apples at the Bootleg. Caught a Ghost will celebrate the release of their debut “Human Nature” on Friday at the Bootleg where Decorator, Darklands and Intergalactix join in on the fun.

@Seraphina_L recommends: If you haven’t seen Lo-Fang live yet, then their show at the Troubadour will be a great chance to see Matthew Hemerlein and company play an intimate set of songs from the debut “Blue Film.” Kate Berlant opens.
