MUSIC: LEON BRIDGES With Little Dragon, 8 p.m., Theater at Virgin, axs.com.

MUSIC: FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS During the pandemic lockdown, I listened to Frank Turner’s “The Next Storm” often. It’s an upbeat song about facing hard times head-on, but on a more literal level, it’s about getting out of the damn house: “I’m not going to live the whole of my life indoors/I’m going to step out, and face the next storm.” That’s the English punk folksinger’s gift; he finds his way into difficult situations—faltering relationships, financial struggle, duplicitous politics, general bad news—and he straps on his guitar and fights his way out. Acoustic or electric almost doesn’t matter; Turner’s lyrics, and the passionate way in which he delivers them, root you to the spot. You have to hear how it’s going to resolve, even if the crowd is pogoing all around you. Turner’s bringing his full band to House of Blues, which means you’re gonna get a lot of concise, full-volume truths, delivered by a man who believes. With Amigo the Devil, The Bronx, 5:30 p.m., $33.

PARTY: VNSSA Last summer, this up-and-coming DJ kicked off a limited residency at Downtown’s Discopussy. Now, she’s back to pick up where the party left off. In just a few short years, Vnssa has made her mark on the LA club scene and beyond, spinning at some of the most popular festivals and with some of the top talents in the industry (Destructo, Claude VonStroke, Fisher …). House is most certainly the Newport Beach native’s bag, but she has been known to slip in some disco to keep the crowd guessing and grooving. 10 p.m. $10, Discopussy, discopussydtlv.com. –Amber Sampson

MUSIC: COCO FEST Like so many other good times, this Downtown mini-festival—presented by Konnected and Instagram faves There’s Nothing to Do in Vegas—took a break during the uncertainty created by COVID, but it’s coming back strong in its sixth edition with three separate stages of music, including a set by Anaheim-based hip-hop collective Weapons of Mass Creation. Also scheduled to appear are Dama Vicke, Chris Mendoza, J. Handel, Supreme-O, DJ Phatrick, Saucey Downs, River Rhythm, SPXTRM, Butterscotch, CoCo Jenkins and many more. Additionally, the 21-and-over event will feature a fashion show, an art gallery and art vendors, sideshow acts and various other free-roaming surprises. Brave the heat and enjoy a party too long delayed. 7 p.m., $15-$20, Fergusons Downtown, eventbrite.com. –Geoff Carter

Sunday, July 31

MUSIC: VINCENT JOHN We called him Vin A when he first came to town with his dad and his brother and the rest of the band, The Bronx Wanderers, for a running gig in the same small showroom at Bally’s where Wayne Newton performed in 2016. Now that the Wanderers have established themselves as a favorite—their Westgate gig was voted this year’s Best Tribute Show by Weekly readers—fueled by this virtuoso frontman, he’s ready to show us what else he’s got (think catchy pop harmonies) with a stripped-down performance at the Robin Leach Lounge at Notoriety. Musician pals Joe Bonasorte, Tim Sorbs, Fernando Tort and Jeff Celentano will back him as he showcases many of the songs written during the pandemic pause, and probably a few favorite covers as well … his favorites, not yours. Well, shout ’em out and see what happens. 9 p.m., $30, Notoriety, notorietylive.com.

MISC: THE PROM Junior-senior promenades are inherently funny. (I should know; I ended up attending three of them. You should have seen the way my mullet set off my rented tux.) But unless you really like power ballads and the Electric Slide, they don’t always make for great musical events. Enter The Prom. This musical comedy, with lyrics by Chad Beguelin (The Wedding Singer) and music by Matthew Sklar (Elf the Musical), and a book by Beguelin and Tony Award-winner Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone), draws on a real-life event—a Mississippi senior’s 2010 attempt to take her girlfriend to prom, and the absurd homophobic nonsense that followed—and crafts a funny, joyous story from it. Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (Mean Girls, The Book of Mormon) directs and choreographs this Smith Center night to remember. Cumberbunds aren’t required, but they’re always welcome. August 2-7, times vary, $29-$120, Reynolds Hall, thesmithcenter.com. –Geoff Carter

MUSIC: FAYE WEBSTER Searching for a sound to accompany a much-needed languid summer evening? Look no further. Atlanta’s Faye Webster has you covered with soulful, whisper-quiet vocals set to intricate instrumentation—every pedal steel note and bassline is placed with the utmost care. Her latest release, an EP titled Car Therapy Sessions, features one new track, “Car Therapy,” but mainly re-creates songs from her past two albums, I Know I’m Funny Haha and Atlanta Millionaires Club, with new arrangements utilizing an orchestra. This folk-pop singer knows the importance of a great arrangement and seems sure to deliver a powerful live performance. 8 p.m., $22-$38, 24 Oxford, etix.com. –Evelyn Mateos
