More About
With his grizzled voice, easygoing flow and knack for spinning hyperdetailed yarns, Nova Scotia's cult-beloved Buck 65 has long been acknowledged as indie hip-hop's answer to Tom Waits. And over the years (it's been 20 since Buck's first release), the man born Ricardo Terfry has only seemed to encourage the distinction. Of late, he's traded in the experimental beats and turntable tricks of his early career (1997's Vertex being the apex) for the sort of hand-wrought folk and lilting blues heard on last year's impressive 20 Odd Years, which featured collaborations with a half dozen singer-songwriters, as well as Islands main brain Nick Thorburn and Gordon Downie from the Tragically Hip. Minneapolis author-musician Kristoff Krane opens with a similar but more pop-inflected style anchored by introspective rhymes, homey choruses, acoustic strumming and backpack-friendly beats. —Chris Martins
Jeff Lorber Band
Spaghettini
Keyboardist Jeff Lorber is viewed as an early jazz-fusion pioneer, beginning in the late 1970s. For much of the last three decades, however, Lorber has been swimming in the waters of the smooth-jazz world — in the '80s his band provided the launchpad for Kenny Gorelick (now known as Kenny G), who went on to become the biggest-selling artist in jazz history. With his latest release, however, Lorber has returned to his fusion roots and enlisted the help of world-class musicians playing challenging music. Galaxy features a host of all-stars, including trumpet master Randy Brecker, Yellowjackets bassist Jimmy Haslip and the monster drum pair of Dave Weckl and Vinnie Colaiuta. For tonight's show, Lorber's band includes Haslip, saxophonist Patrick Lamb and megadrummer Gary Novak. The group also appears Thursday night at the Baked Potato. —Tom Meek
EL REY THEATRE
We've long been told sophomore albums are a make-or-break marker in a budding band's career, which puts New York chamber-pop outfit Ra Ra Riot in an interesting position. Their lavish 2008 debut full-length, The Rhumb Line — full of peppy melodies and orchestral-esque string arrangements — was released to great critical praise, effectively placing them in a similar "next-big-thing" stratosphere as fellow prep-rockers Vampire Weekend. But unlike the latter's Contra, Ra Ra Riot's follow-up, 2010's The Orchard, lacked the lasting-impression stickiness of its predecessor. If last year's intriguing "Megafauna" (an Orchard alternate take released on their Too Dramatic EP) is any indication of other directions this Wes Miles–led crew may head, though, it shows that a sophomore-effort overemphasis need not apply to every band. Some acts reveal themselves in a less conventional manner. —Dan Hyman

Disappears, Fresh & Onlys
THE ECHO
Chicago's Disappears are not to be missed. We could tell you that since the demise of Baltimore's Double Dagger, they're easily the fiercest post-punk outfit operating. Or that this four-man wrecking crew was formed by Brian Case, ace ax-slinger for garage greats the Ponys and prog powerhouse 90 Day Men. Or that these guys are so damn good that Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley up and decided to become their permanent drummer last year. We could talk about their upcoming album, Pre Language, a primal and relentless slab of Krautrock rhythms, stormy guitars and spat vocals. But the truth is nothing compares to seeing these guys in action, ripping through an even blacker version of Suicide's "Radiation," or making the surprising case that 10 minutes really isn't long enough for a Spacemen 3–channeling single-song freak-out. Hard truth from the edge of the void. —Chris Martins
Wye Oak
TROUBADOUR
Wye Oak may just be a duo, but when you close your eyes, it sounds like a much bigger band is cranking out these grand and sprawling songs. One of their marvelous tricks is that drummer Andy Stack is able to simultaneously play keyboards, pumping out shimmering sheets of sound even as he's holding down the beat with complete authority. This gives singer-guitarist Jenn Wasner plenty of space to wander on the Baltimore duo's latest album, Civilian. Her ethereal singing is wrapped up in fragile guitar arpeggios before the songs start to expand outward with dynamic shifts of sound, which alternate between intimately pretty idylls and grungy slabs of noise. When the clouds finally burn away, you're left with irresistibly charming melodies like the beguiling valentine "Holy Holy." —Falling James
