Sunday 6/9: Chris Kasper at 118 North

If you’re in the mood for some folksy Americana, look no further than Chris Kasper, who hails from all the way down in… Philadelphia? You might not believe it based on his voice and southern stylings, but this rootsy singer-songwriter hails from Philly. Catch him at 118 North in Wayne, PA tonight. // 7:30 p.m., $18, 21+ – Claire Brown

Monday 6/10: Bitchin Bajas at Solar Myth

Space-age krautrockers Bitchin Bajas take the stage at Solar Myth, a fittingly celestial name for an out-of-this-world band. When they’re not working with Chicago legends like Bonnie “Prince” Billy, they’re laying down lengthy, jazzy jams on records like 2022’s Bajascillators. // 8 p.m., $30, 21+ – C.B.

Tuesday 6/11: The Rolling Stones at Lincoln Financial Field

Some sixty years after their British Invasion heyday, the Rolling Stones are still kickin’!

Wednesday 6/12: Pixies and Modest Mouse at The Mann

Encoring their wildly successful 2023 tour, this tag-team of indie titans returns to Philadelphia this Wednesday. Just in case our millennial readers aren’t sold on this massive co-headliner yet, special guest Cat Power opens; it’s a bill you’ll never forget. // 6:30 p.m., $38, AA – C.B.

Thursday 6/13: Kaia Kater World Cafe Live

Armed with her banjo and soothing voice, Kaia Kater’s show this Thursday is sure to erase any worries from your mind. From her ties to Caribbean music and the Canadian folk scene during her childhood to Appalachian influences from her time in college, Kaia Kater’s music draws on influences rooted in her diverse background. The result is a folk/bluegrass combination, with delicate and introspective lyrics. Kater recently released Strange Medicine, her fourth album, which is full of acoustic songs that promise to surpass all expectations when played live. // 8:30 p.m., $15, 21+ – Emma Zoe Polyak

Thursday 6/13: Wilderado at Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia

Hailing from Tulsa, Oklahoma, Wilderado are a three-piece band consisting of vocalist and guitarist Max Rainer, guitarist Tyler Wimpee, and drummer Justin Kila.

Thursday 6/13: The Umbrellas at PhilaMOCA

Head to PhilaMOCA if you want to rock out to some jangle-pop this Thursday! Hailing from sunny California, The Umbrellas have really come into their sound with their newest album, Fairweather Friend. It embraces 60s-esque guitar, groovy bass, and piercing vocals, creating an album that is full of nostalgia and longing. PhilaMOCA is an intimate space, and the perfect venue to host The Umbrellas. You’ll get to experience them up close and personal while having enough space to bop around. // 8 p.m., $15, AA – EZP

Friday 6/14: Los Lobos at Ardmore Music Hall

Los Lobos have come a long way from 1973, when they started out playing covers of Mexican folk music at restaurants and parties. Flash forward fifty years, and Los Lobos have received numerous awards, becoming a staple among legacy bands. Their music is a reflection of the melting pot that is American culture, keeping their Mexican folk roots and infusing rock, soul, R&B, and punk as their sound evolved over the years. Catch their show at the Ardmore Music Hall this Friday, it’s not one to miss // 7:30 p.m., $45, 21+ – EZP

Friday 6/14: Kim Gordon at Union Transfer

Ten years after the dissolution of Sonic Youth, singer / multi-instrumentalist Kim Gordon has worked on a variety of visual art and music projects.

Friday 6/14: Shemekia Copeland at XL Live
