Tonight Evelyn Evelyn, the musical duo formed by the Dresden Dolls' Amanda Palmer and Jason Webley, will be concluding a three-night stint at Largo at the Coronet. Austin-bred indie rock quartet Voxtrot are poised to call it quits after their current tour, which stops through the Echoplex tonight. And, lastly, local prolific songwriter John Wood, who performs under the pseudonym Learning Music will be gracing Echo Curio with none other than Mooey Moobau and Video. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Troubadour to catch Juno-nominated, Québécois indie rock trio Plants and Animals, who are touring in support of their sophomore endeavor—2010's La La Land. LAist favorites, Chapel Hill orchestral pop collective Lost in the Trees are slated to kick things off. more ›
