If you can only catch one event this week, then go see Toshi Reagon. Although Reagon said she is “not a gospel and blues singer,” she will perform a broad range of musical genres including the previously written-off gospel and blues. Her soulful voice will surely make for an unforgettable performance, despite the vague genre of the concert.

Rilo Kiley Creates Loving Atmosphere at 9:30 Club

So many bands and artists have heartbreak stories about how they rose from nothing to everything.

Rilo Kiley’s story is a bit different; They’re led by two former child stars. Lead singer Jenny Lewis had supporting roles in “Troop Beverly Hills” and “The Wizard.” Likewise, Blake Sennett, their lead guitarist, played supporting roles in “Boy Meets World” and “Salute Your Shorts.” Formed in 1998 straight out of Los Angeles, the two former child stars were joined by talented bassist Pierre de Reeder and awe-inspiring drummer Jason Boesel. Not only can this foursome record an amazing album, but they also perform a mind-blowing concert.
