Above: That’s She & Him‘s video for “I Could Have Been Your Girl.” (Anyone from Eagle Rock recognize the location, by the way?) The duo of Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward roll through town in support of their latest album “Volume 3” and stop to play at the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday. Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell and Matthew E. White also play. 

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Two shows on this week’s calendar give a whole new meaning to going to church on weekends. Hard to believe there could be a sweeter venue than the (Spaceland Productions-booked) First Unitarian Church for folk singer Iris Dement, who released her first album in eight years, “Sing the Delta,” in October, and Iron & Wine, whose latest album “Ghost on Ghost” was released last month. DeMent plays Saturday; Iron & Wine on Sunday.

@Seraphina_L recommends: Camera Obscura bring their twee melodies to the Wiltern on Tuesday in support of their latest album “Desire Lines,” featuring new songs like “Do It Again” and “Fifth in Line to the Throne.”
