Tonight In Rock: Raphael Saadiq, Bob Mould, Nico Stai, The Monolators

Raphael Saadiq will be playing tonight at House of Blues Sunset | Picture via Raphael Saadiq's Myspace
Our Pick: Raphael Saadiq @ House of Blues Sunset
Tonight Hüsker Dü front man, NY-based singer-songwriter Bob Mould will be performing at the Hotel Café. LA-based indie rocker Nico Stai is poised to kick off a month-long residency at Spaceland. And, lastly, LAist favorites the Monolators (LAist Review, #2) will be gracing the Echo with the Hectors. But we strongly suggest heading over to the House of Blues Sunset to catch Oakland-bred retro-soul singer Raphael Saadiq.
