When two well-known forces in music combine, the results can be magical or disastrous. In the case of the Both, we can be thankful that they're the former and not the latter. Tonight, you can hear the combined magic of Aimee Mann and Ted Leo at the Belly Up. Meanwhile, Failure has received huge buzz in their reunion, with a support slot for Tool earlier this year. Tonight, they headline House of Blues and you can bet it will be incredible. Around town, Matt Nathanson and Gavin Degraw co-headline at Humphrey's, Electric Six and Yip Deceiver shred at the Casbah, and Liquorsmiths perform an intimate set at Sycamore Den.
