Junior Boys will be performing tonight at the El Rey Theatre | Picture via the Junior Boys' Myspace
Our Pick: Junior Boys, Circlesquare @ El Rey Theatre
Tonight iconic folk rock singer-songwriter Bob Dylan will be taking on the second night of a three-date stint at the Hollywood Palladium. Cambridge-bred electro-pop outfit Passion Pit (LAist Review) are poised to perform to a sold-out crowd at the Henry Fonda Music Box. And, lastly, Melbourne-based indie rock buzz band the Temper Trap will be headlining on the Roxy with Canadian rock outfit Jets Overhead. But we strongly suggest heading over to the El Rey Theatre to catch Canadian electro pop duo the Junior Boys. Berlin-by-way-of-Vancouver electronic mastermind Circlesquare is slated to kick things off.
You can find these listings as well as the rest of the week's in our weekly Week In Rock post, which goes up every Sunday.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
