The Sanctuary – Old South Church in Boston
Hanabie. — March 13

Their live shows carry that same fluid energy, moving seamlessly from hazy sway-alongs to moments of full-throttle momentum.
📍Where? Citizens House of Blues Boston
Yellow Days — March 19
There’s a woozy, technicolour quality to Yellow Days’ music. Soul is filtered through bedroom pop, funk, and warped psychedelia, and that off-kilter charm is to take on a new dimension in Boston, with elastic basslines and smoky vocals filling the room.
📍Where? Brighton Music Hall
Bettye LaVette — March 21
