- Telekinesis, Michael Benjamin Lerner’s soloish analog-obsessed recording project/bandlike touring sensation, signed to Merge this year and recently appeared in the inverse burn to shine-ish One Shot series to reawaken the sleeping Crocodile [vimeo]. Smile pretty and you might end up in their photographic chronicle of their winter tour [flickr] as they’re playing a show tonight on their way down the coast to Noise Pop with New Zealand’s Cut Off Your Hands, and my favorite touchy-feely family-like bunch from New York Ra Ra Riot (now on local label, Barsuk) who I’ll happily recommend to you every time I can. After all, they have an electric cello! $12.50, 8p. [neumos]
- Also consideration-worthy are Annuals, who are never short of enthusiasm or willingness to add some extra drumming to the mix [mb]. With What Laura Says, Jessica Lee Mayfield, $12, 8p. [chopsuey]
