Mondays aren't ever easy, but today is especially hard after the daylight saving time leap forward. Reward yourself with live music. At the House of Blues, indie rockers Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness are sure to have a captivated audience. Though only around for a few years, the band saw early success with their self-titled debut album and are already veterans of the big festival circuit, having played Coachella in 2015. The epic, soaring songs lend themsleves to group sing-alongs and joyful piano crescendoes. With Atlas Genius and Night Riots opening the show, this is definitely the hot ticket Monday night. If you're feeling like tap-tap-tapping your feet and swinging to the beat, Minnesota's Davina & the Vagabonds bring jazz and blues to the Casbah, or head to the Hideout for the mesmerizing voice of Quiñ. Some pretty good choices to make your Monday extra worthwhile.
