TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5

Singer-songwriters Emmylou Harris, Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, Patty Griffin, and Thao Nguyen are joining forces to play acoustic music for The Lantern II tour, which aims to raise money for migrant and refugee families through the Women’s Refugee Commission. Warner Theatre. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $103-$253. All ages, accessible venue.

Chris Thile has been a busy man in recent years, playing shows with his jazzy bluegrass ensemble The Punch Brothers, his folksy trio Nickel Creek, and as host of the public radio show Live From Here. The latest has been his calling card of late and finds the mandolist inviting musicians as varied as Lake Street Dive’s Rachael Price, singer Mavis Staples, and Phish guitarist Trey Anastasio to play their songs and covers as part of the live musical revue. For this show, it will be Thile (and his music) who are front and center. The Music Center at Strathmore. 8 p.m. show. $33-$79. All ages, accessible venue.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6

Listen to Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio’s Live at KEXP! album and you’ll get a taste of what it’s like to experience the jazz and funk band in concert. Go to a show—especially in a small room like Blues Alley, where the band made its D.C. debut in April—and you’ll feel the music on another level. There’s a joyus, expressive nature to the band’s instrumental tunes that’s reminiscent of The Meters or The M.G.s but still feels fresh and new. Blues Alley. 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. shows. $25. All ages, inaccessible venue.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7

Singer-songwriter AHI is from Canada but it wouldn’t be wrong to call his music Americana. There’s a rootsy, soulful folk vibe to the music Ahkinoah Habah Izarh makes as AHI, particularly his most recent album, last year’s In Our Time. Songbyrd Music House. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $13-$15. All ages, inaccessible space.

D.C. guitarist Anthony Pirog (of The Messthetics) will put his often experimental jazz quartet on display at the Luce Foundation Center in the Smithsonian’s American Art Museum for the latest edition of the Luce Unplugged series. 6 p.m. show. FREE. All ages, accessible venue.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8

Chicago-based DJ and production duo Louis the Child has only released three EPs, yet their single with Wafia, “Better Not,” has nearly 130 million streams on Spotify. (And another single, “Slow Down Love,” is pushing 50 million.) Robby Hauldren and Frederic Kennett clearly have their fingers on the pulse of what makes for a pop hit in the streaming era. The Anthem. 6:30 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $46-$76. All ages, accessible venue.

Local blues and roots musician Bobby Thompson will celebrate the release of his new self-titled album, which dropped last month, with support from local folk singer Karen Jonas at Pearl Street Warehouse. Thompson’s new album features seven new original songs (plus two covers) and features members from two of his bands, Blueheart Revival and Revelator Hill. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. FREE. 21+, accessible venue.

With Bruce Springsteen busy on Broadway and making his solo album Western Stars in recent years, E Street Band drummer Max Weinberg has been free to tour with his own group, Max Weinberg’s Jukebox, which plays rock and pop hits from the 1960s and beyond, based in part on audience requests and suggestions. The Barns at Wolf Trap. 6:30 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $52. All ages, accessible venue.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9

Guitarist Brandon “Taz” Niederauer is leaving a dream that would make most teenagers envious. The now-16-year-old saw the Jack Black movie School of Rock at age 8, picked up the guitar and—only four years later—was cast in the film’s musical adaptation. He’s now a fixture on the festival circuit (often sitting in with musicians many years his senior) thanks to his virtuosic, bluesy guitar chops. Gypsy Sally’s. 7 p.m. doors. 9 p.m. show. $15-$18. 21+, accessible venue.

Todrick Hall has so many different avenues for being Todrick Hall that it’s easy to forget his career began as an American Idol finalist. Since then, he’s released his own albums, become a YouTube personality, was the subject of an MTV docuseries, became the in-house choreographer (and sometimes judge) on RuPaul’s Drag Race, starred in Kinky Boots on Broadway, and—-his most high-profile role this summer—-is a personal pal and music video co-star of Taylor Swift’s. Hall is currently touring behind his Haus Party EP series, the third volume of which is due later this month. Warner Theatre. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $23-$43. All ages, accessible venue.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 10

Like Daft Punk before them, DJ trio Magic Sword hide behind cloaks and masks and record under pseudonyms: The Keeper, The Seer, and The Weaver. Oddly, the EDM act, which just released the synth-heavy Awakening album, does not conceal the fact that they are from Boise, Idaho. Songbyrd Music House. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $16-$18. All ages, inaccessible space.

Emo band Taking Back Sunday is doing a fun gimmick for the group’s two-night stands on its current tour in honor of the 20th anniversary of debut album Tell All Your Friends. They’re playing the album in full both nights, then flipping a coin to determine a second album they’ll also play in full (either Where You Want To Be or Louder Now). Whatever doesn’t get picked on Sunday will get played on Monday, so if you’re a fan of all three albums, you’ll have to catch both shows. Fillmore Silver Spring. 8 p.m. shows. $35. All ages, accessible venue.

D.C. go-go luminaries Rare Essence, Backyard Band, TCB, and What? Band are all joining forces to fill Northeast’s biggest room, Echostage, with the city’s homegrown sound the night before Veteran’s Day. 10 p.m. doors. $40-$50. 21+, accessible venue.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11

The quirky, harp-driven indie-pop of Mikaela Davis’ 2018 album Delivery bears little resemblance to the music of the Grateful Dead, which has made her recent musical friendship with the Dead’s Bob Weir all the more intriguing. For her current tour, Davis and her band, Southern Star, will play a set of original songs before they return to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Dead’s landmark 1969 Live/Dead album by covering the experimental live set in full. Songbyrd Music House. 7 p.m. doors. 8 p.m. show. $13-$15. All ages, inaccessible space.
