Losanjealous Concert Picks: Sept. 17-23
PICK OF THE WEEK
In a week packt with great shows, with Arcade Fire/LCD clearly the 800 lb. gorilla of the bunch. So we go under the radar with Australian literate pop geniuses The Lucksmiths. They only get out to here every few years, so take this chance to catch them. You will come away with a better understanding of the phrase “criminally overlooked”.
