Above: That’s Mazzy Star‘s video for “California” above. The track is from their long-awaited fourth studio album “Seasons of Your Day;” it only took 17 years for the duo to follow-up 1996’s “Among My Swan.” Mazzy Star plays Thursday at the Wiltern.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Jonathan Wilson’s painterly folk epic “Fanfare” – the follow-up to 2011’s widely praised “Gentle Spirit” – features guest turns from the likes of Graham Nash, David Crosby, Jackson Browne, Mike Campbell, Benmont Tench, Josh Tillman (aka Father John Misty), Patrick Sansone and Taylor Goldsmith, so who knows who might show up for his hometown show Thursday at the Troubadour. The album came out two weeks ago on Downtown.

@Seraphina_L recommends: Wednesday is a special night. The Parson Red Heads return to L.A. for a headlining show the Satellite in support of their latest record “Orb Weave.” Mimicking Birds and Tall Tales & the Silver Lining also play.
