Tonight In Rock: Andrew Bird, Brendan Benson, Fanfarlo, Harlem

Our June member drive is live: protect this resource!
Right now, we need your help during our short June member drive to keep the local news you read here every day going. This has been a challenging year, but with your help, we can get one step closer to closing our budget gap. Today, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership.

Our Pick: Andrew Bird @ Bovard Auditorium

Tonight Raconteurs guitarist, Michigan-bred singer-songwriter Brendan Benson will be headlining the Troubadour. London's own indie pop act Fanfarlo are poised to take on the El Rey Theatre with none other than Brooklyn-bred singer-songwriter April Smith & the Great Picture Show. And, lastly, Austin-based garage rockers Harlem will be gracing Spaceland. But we strongly suggest heading over to USC's Bovard Auditorium to catch Chicago-based multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird (LAist Review).

You can find these listings as well as the rest of the week's in our weekly Week In Rock post, which (generally) goes up every Sunday.
