Tonight In Rock: Franz Nicolay, Jesca Hoop, Carina Round

Sister Suvi will be playing tonight at the Hotel Café | Photo via Sister Suvi's Myspace
Our Pick: Jesca Hoop, Thao with The Get Down Stay Down, Samantha Crain, Sister Suvi @ The Hotel Café
Tonight The Hold Steady keyboardist Franz Nicolay is poised to rock Spaceland. And, lastly, British singer-songwriter Carina Round will be gracing Largo at the Coronet's Little Room. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Hotel Café catch local singer-songwriter Jesca Hoop, who will be granting Los Angeles one final show before relocating to the UK. Montreal-based indie rockers Sister Suvi are slated to kick things off.
