The Villebillies Living somewhere between hip-hop and rock, The Villebillies pull good-time sensibilities from both genres, ending up with big choruses, chugging guitars, exploratory beats and/or banjo as well as a variety of verses from their various members spliced in-between. This is their homecoming party and Elephant Room, Vice Tricks and Tunesmiths open. Saturday, Nov. 21 at Headliners. $10.

Laura Marling At only 25, Laura Marling is a veteran songwriter who released her first album seven years ago, writing with what seemed to be lifetimes of experience and ache when she was still in her teens. With the clever rhythms of a poet set beside equally-ambitious folk music that can be sparse and light, but still powerful and heavy, Marling manages to always be exciting in a sometimes sleepy corner of music. She is set to perform at Headliners on Wednesday, Nov. 18. $20.
