5 Picks for the Week

Wednesday: Moses Sumney at the Bootleg Theater

Ramping up for the two-part release of his double-LP “Grae” (the first of which arrives this Friday), Moses Sumney is doing a residency that includes an art installation in the venue’s auxiliary room. Last week’s opener was special: Here’s what we heard. It’s free, and early arrival is recommended.

Thursday: Andy Shauf at the Fonda Theatre

Canadian singer-songwriter-raconteur Andy Shauf released his latest album “The Neon Skyline” in January. He’ll bring songs new and old to the Fonda, where Molly Sarle opens. Tickets.

Friday: Cold War Kids at the Novo

SoCal quintet Cold War Kids last year released the first of an album trilogy, “New Age Norms 1.” The second is on the way this year (“Who’s Gonna Love Me Now” is the new single), and they figure to sample from their deep catalog at this hometown show. Tickets.

Friday: Dre Day L.A. at the Echo and Echoplex

The seventh annual celebration of all things Dr. Dre includes performances from Battlecat and J.Rocc, DJs upstairs and downstairs, hip-hop trivia and more. Tickets.

Sunday: Destroyer at the Regent Theater

Indie-rock provocateur Dan Bejar released his new Destroyer album, “Have We Met,” in January. It’s a wild ride and a shift in the sound for the Canadian artist, who released his first albums in the 1990s. Tickets.
