Kurt Braunohler
Comedian Kurt Braunohler is wonderful, weird, and ever so likable, with jokes about the particular sadness of being a ginger going blonde with age, and the best goddamn impression of a beaver you’ll ever see in your life. It’s just really cute and great and defies all description. I know that sounds weird, but it’s true, and if you want to understand why, you’ll need to see it for yourself MEGAN BURBANK

Kimbra, Arc Iris
Best known for her soaring, plaintive vocals in Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know,” Kimbra is so much more. Mixing jazz with R&B/funk stylings and ladling on dollops of hiphop, disco, and experimental pop, Kimbra’s expansive sound will surely inspire asses to shake, and mouths to gape. WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY
8:30 pm, Wonder Ballroom, $25-30, all ages
