The Bird and the Bee

Your summer Sunday fare:

► Big night at the Hollywood Bowl, there the lineup features Death Cab For Cutie, Tune-Yards and Mikal Cronin.
The Bird & the Bee — that’s Inara George and Greg Kurstin, above — play the Theatre at Ace Hotel in advance of next week’s release of their new album “Recreational Love.” Zee Avi opens. [See our coverage of May’s show.]
► Tour de Compadres brings Needtobreathe, Switchfoot, Drew Holbomb & the Neighbors and Colony House to the Greek Theatre.
X winds up their run of album shows at the Observatory, tonight performing 1983’s “More Fun in the New World.”
► Long-running Bay Area noise rockers Chrome play Part Time Punks at the Echo, supported by High-Functioning Flesh and Terminal A.
► And earlier in the day at the Echo, it’s Grand Ole Echo, featuring Austin McCutchen, Leslie Stevens, CB Brand and Amy Blaschke. (doors at 3 p.m.)
