Sound Advice is Bandwidth’s recurring playlist of artists we think you should catch around D.C. this week.
Synthesized music from all over the world tops this week’s agenda, with former wedding performer Omar Souleyman, accidental acid-house pioneer Charanjit Singh, Nigerian pop artist Flavour, prince of darkness Trent Reznor, Virginia-based techno/dubstep artist Martyn and local producer Louis Weeks all playing shows. Over the weekend, D.C.’s Backyard Band teams up with longtime Memphis rapper Project Pat—older brother of Juicy J—for a late-night show at Howard Theatre; and D.C. garage punks Thee Lolitas take a field trip to Silver Spring for a show at subterranean hamburger lair Quarry House.
All these picks and more in this week’s playlist:
