It's an exciting and active week in San Diego, so hopefully you caught up with rest last week so you can hit it full throttle. Tonight at the Observatory, you can catch the long awaited return of Angel Olsen. One of the most talented artists in indie rock today, her latest album, "All Mirrors," is incredible, and to see those songs performed live tonight will be a treat. Meanwhile, punk fans can rejoice at the reunion of the Make-Up at the Casbah. The band was around in the mid-'90s but called it quits around 2000, so this tour is a welcome surprise for their most diehard fans. Around town, locals the Black Market Brigade headline Soda Bar, beatmaker and R&B singer Myels Parrish plays House of Blues, and husband and wife duo Snake and the Rabbit play at the Merrow.
