Ra Ra Riot, "Dying Is Fine"
The orchestral-pop band takes its indie-rock stylings to exuberant, epic and emotional places.
The Little Ones, "Morning Tide"
The debut record's title track is a pleasantly poppy dose of psychedelic folk rock. The band's at Mercury Lounge on Thursday.
Chris Robley, "Faulkner's South"
Wistfully moody and mellow, the sad track from "The Drunken Dance of Modern Man in Love" hides a dark past. He's at Pete's Candy Store on Sunday.
Kristoffer Ragnstam, "Swing That Tambourine"
Slightly lovelorn and totally urgent swirling indie-pop from the Swedish singer's sophomore disc, "Wrong Side of the Room."
Mayra Andrade, "Tunuka"
The Cape Verde singer taps into Afrobeat and bossa nova to get her point across on this song from her debut, "Navega."
