The Week Ahead: March 26-April 1

0

[Our look at the week ahead, starting with Nicolas Jaar, playing Monday, and his video for “Mi Mujer”:]

Incoming: Nicolas Jaar, NO, Voxhaul Broadcast, the Henry Clay People, JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound, Harriet, White Arrows, White Rabbits, Matthew Dear, Races, Kathleen Edwards, the Wedding Present and more.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: The Wedding Present on Saturday at the Troubadour. The U.K. veterans’ new album “Valentina” measures up to their great records of the early 1990s. And they were forever young at SXSW.
@Seraphina_L recommends: Gold Fields on Wednesday at the Bootleg Bar. The Australian quintet just released their self-titled EP, which is full of experimental electro-pop that’s both punchy and brooding.

After the jump, the week ahead:

★ notes a show of special interest.
