This week of great music just keeps on bringing the jams. Tonight, see the catchy indie-pop of Frankie Cosmos at the Irenic or see Erika Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards and Peter Stakee of Alberta Cross at the Casbah. For the classics, the Four Tops and the Temptations appear at Humphreys, and Thievery Corporation play two back-to-back shows at Belly Up. For something extra special, Well Well Well make their local debut at Soda Bar and I promise they're locals you'll be hearing a lot about.
