Night Moves
It takes more than a little confidence to filch your band’s name from a Bob Seger hit from 1976 and then not fully, ironically disassociate yourself from Seger’s style. Indeed, without sounding anything like a cover band, or even a descendent, Night Moves, an indie band out of Minneapolis, twines together pop rock hooks with the heartland’s strum and twang. Tractor Tavern, $12

National Theatre Live: Fleabag
Before there was Fleabag, an eight-time Emmy-nominated Amazon series, there was Fleabag, a one-woman play premiering at the 2016 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge once again takes on the titular role, recounting the story of a young narcissistic Londoner struggling to keep her guinea pig-themed cafe afloat after the semi-accidental death of her best friend. Waller-Bridge gives such a thrilling performance, you won’t even realize the production isn’t actually live. SIFF Film Center, $20
