They’re hot like wasabi when they bust rhymes, big like Leann Rimes and all about value. That’s right—Barenaked Ladies are bringing their Last Summer on Earth tour to town July 22, when the Canadian alt-rockers take the stage at the outdoor Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, with support from OMD and Howard Jones. Tickets are $41.50 and go on sale February 5 at ticketmaster.com.

Brooklyn Bowl announced a handful of shows this week, from indie rock outfits to a progressive rock jam band. First up is indie act The Front Bottoms, playing the concert hall April 23. Tickets are $16-$50 and go on sale February 5 at noon at ticketfly.com. Taking the venue’s stage the next night on April 24 is Foals, fresh off the indie band’s second set at Coachella. Tickets are $22 and on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at ticketfly.com. Lastly, Umphrey’s McGee will be at the Linq venue for a two-night engagement May 6-7. The jam band presents its UMBowl concert experience featuring “crowd-sourced improvisation” the first night, with tickets going for $109.50, and a standard set the next night, with tickets at $35. Both shows go on sale February 5 at 9 a.m. at ticketfly.com.

Known for late-’70s hits like “Barracuda” and “Crazy On You,” Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Heart return to House of Blues June 2-4 and October 6-8. Tickets are $55 for GA (standing room only) and $69.50 for reserved seating.

All shows go on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at livenation.com.

One of the few country names on the Coachella roster, Chris Stapleton will play the Joint on his way to the Southern California fest on April 15. Hard Rock Hotel announced the booking just hours after the artist received a whopping five ACM Awards nominations, including Male Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year—and that’s in addition to the rising star’s four Grammy nods. Tickets are $50 and go on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at axs.com.

Touring to support their Music Complete album, the band’s first recently recorded release since 2005, New Order plays the Chelsea March 21. Tickets to the New Wave act’s show are $30-$80 and go on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.com. The Cosmopolitan venue also announced Mercedes in the Morning’s March 4 Spring Fling Concert this week, which features pop-rockers American Authors, “See You Again” and “One Call Away” singer-songwriter Charlie Puth and indie-pop artist Zella Day. Tickets to the 94.1-sponsored show are $20-$40 (with a portion of proceeds benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada) and go on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.com.

Into smooth jazz? Saxophonist Kenny G plays the Venetian Theatre April 1. Tickets start at $49.95 and go on sale February 5 at 10 a.m. at venetian.com/KennyG. Here’s hoping a soundtracked “Last Friday Night” by Katy Perry makes the set list—you gotta admit, that solo is pretty sweet.

Set to release her third album, 99 Cents, later this month, funky electro-pop songstress Santigold plays the Foundry at SLS April 2. Tickets are $25 and on sale now at thefoundry.electrostub.com. Also on sale now: Tickets to The Sword’s show at Vinyl, (March 22, $20-$35, axs.com) and Built to Spill’s third appearance at the Bunkhouse (February 16, $20, ticketfly.com).
