NOISEMAKERS

Death From Above 1979 (October 27, House of Blues) In case the Canadian noise-rock duo—best known for 2004 album You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine—isn’t draw enough, the bill also includes Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Deap Vally.

Dolly Parton (September 30, Laughlin Event Center) She’s 70, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at her, or watching her indefatigable, highly entertaining live show. Totally worth the 90-minute drive.

The Moody Blues (October 7-15, Venetian Theatre) Never caught the British band behind classic-rock radio staples “Nights in White Satin” and “Ride My See-Saw”? This mini-residency gives you five chances in a week.
