Repo Man
Harry Dean Stanton was an omnipresent figure in film. Independent, mainstream, blockbuster, uber-low-budgetâchances are if you watched more than five movies in your life, you saw Harry Dean Stanton's hangdog face in one of them, cigarette dangling out of one corner of his mouth, dialogue flowing from the other. And it almost never mattered what that dialog was, it sounded like philosophy as he delivered it, whether it was just the single word "right," in Alien, relationship advice in Pretty in Pink, or the sweaty, meth-fueled pearls of wisdom in Repo Man, the 1984 Alex Cox masterpiece that used Stanton as expertly as any director ever hasâwhich makes this tribute screening a great choice by which to remember such an unforgettable man.

6:30 pm, Hollywood Theatre, $7-9
Lil Yachty
Twenty-year-old rapper Lil Yachty rose to mainstream fame after collaborating with street fashion brands, hustling for Instagram likes, and dropping his certified platinum single âOne Night.â The mumbling, goofy trap star with the off-kilter beats has found himself modeling in Kanye Westâs Yeezy Season 3 line and working with big-name artists like Migos, LeBron James, Diplo, and YG. His 2017 debut, Teenage Emotions, displays an irreverence and innocence that fits in with the new wave of young, bright-haired Soundcloud traplords eschewing dark themes for ditties about crew love and chasing girls. And his bubbling personality extends to his entire brandâlook no further than his recent merch/restaurant pop-up, Yachtyâs Pizzeria, fitting for a dude who claims to have eaten pizza every day since the second grade. Check his Twitter for some sincere, if naive, nuggets of wisdom: âBecoming older than 5 was my worst decision ever.â DANIELA SERNA

Turkuaz, Sinkane
Ahmed Gallabâthe man behind Sinkaneâhas always been a busy musician, playing with Of Montreal, Yeasayer, Caribou, and leading the Atomic Bomb! Band, an all-star crew that plays the music of Nigerian legend William Onyeabor. This may be why the world has tended to overlook his Sinkane catalog, which now includes six full-length albums of cosmopolitan beauty. The latest is this yearâs Life & Livinâ It, a lovely and lively burst of breezy pop, airtight funk, Afrobeat vibes, and carefree rock. Bass lines snap and guitar riffs sparkle. Horns blaze across the mix. Rhythms roll in from across the globe. And at the center of it all is Gallab, a man with a perfect voice and a talent for making great, complex music that doesnât sound laborious. Life & Livinâ It is exuberant, exquisitely crafted, and absolutely essential music for our times. BEN SALMON

Sera Cahoone, Barna Howard
If you haven't heard any of her three critically acclaimed solo albums, you might know Seattle musician and longtime Sub Pop artist Sera Cahoone from her work in beloved indie rock bands like Carissa's Wierd or Band of Horses. Over the last 10 years Cahoone has found her element in Americana and alternative country-rock. Her comfort in the genre could have to do with her home state of Colorado, where her father sold dynamite for a living. (Wile E. Coyote, anyone?) Cahoone's music is nostalgic but not played outâsongs like "Deer Creek Canyon" (from her 2012 record of the same name) exemplify her direct, emotional songwriting. ANNA McCLAIN
